Nia also mentioned feeling uncomfortable with the continuous calls and messages asking about her participation. She requested people not to ask her questions about Bigg Boss 18, saying she didn’t want to respond to any messages or give interviews about it. She wrote, “Please don’t call or text me to ask anything about the Bigg Boss thing. Mujhe maaf kardo. Mein nahi reply karugi. (Please forgive me. I won’t reply.)

While the exact reasons remain personal, Nia has asked fans to respect her decision and not speculate too much.
Even though Nia won’t be part of it, Bigg Boss 18 is still one of the most eagerly awaited reality shows this year.

With such a diverse group, fans can expect the usual mix of drama, twists, and intense moments that Bigg Boss is known for.
Nia’s sudden decision to leave may affect the show’s initial plans. Many believed her bold personality would add excitement and drama to the Bigg Boss house. However, with a variety of strong personalities still in the lineup, the show is expected to be as engaging as ever. While Nia’s fans are disappointed, many have shown support for her choice on social media, with some even hoping she might return to the reality TV scene in a future season.
As Bigg Boss 18 gets closer to its premiere, viewers are excited to see how the season unfolds. Even without Nia, the show promises high-energy entertainment, challenging tasks, alliances, rivalries, and, of course, the famous “Weekend Ka Vaar” sessions with Salman Khan.
