When Anil Kapoor shared his excitement about working on the show

After the show's makers officially announced Anil Kapoor as the host of the upcoming season, the actor spoke to IANS and shared his excitement about being the face of BB OTT 3. He mentioned that they are a dream team as both the show and himself are young at heart. In his words:

“Bigg Boss OTT and I are a dream team! We're both young at heart; people often say - jokingly - that I'm reverse ageing, but Bigg Boss is - seriously- timeless. It feels a bit like going back to school, trying something new and exciting. Having said that, I've always approached all my projects with sincerity and a commitment to hard work and I'm going to bring that same energy (times 10!) to Bigg Boss! Unscripted reality has something for everyone – laughter, drama, and surprising twists, and I can't wait to bring my own flavour to it!”
