Participating in a reality show is always considered a boost for a celeb's career. And what better than to participate in the most controversial reality show, Bigg Boss? Celebrities eagerly wait to be a part of the show and show their fans and followers their real side and talk about unsaid issues and rumours. Reality shows are considered one of the biggest platforms for the celebs to open up about their personal life and clear the air surrounding them. And sometimes if luck has it, some celebs also find their soulmates on the show. They get to spend a period of three months locked inside the house and they use this opportunity to get to know each other.

Some say that jodis made in the reality shows are only for the game sake and they are never serious about each other. But reality shows King, Prince Narula has proven this notion wrong as he had tied the knot with Yuvika Chaudhary, whom he had met on Bigg Boss. The thirteenth season of Bigg Boss is also giving us some promising jodis, who has become our favourite. And one among them is Himanshi Khurana and Asim Riaz. Himanshi, who had entered the house as a wild card contestant was seen getting a lot of limelight for her rumoured relationship with singer, Ammy Virk and her bonding with co-contestant, Asim Riaz.
Since Himanshi Khurana had made her entry on the show, Asim Riaz was seen sharing a comfortable bond with her and had even confessed his feeling for her. But their bonding could not stay for long, as Himanshi got evicted from the show this week. Post her eviction, she opened up about her closeness with Asim in an interview with Pinkvilla. Himanshi reacted on their relationship and said they are just good friends and nothing else, “In majority, I feel happy that people loved us inside. At least, they understand that I was clear in my point and he was clear in his. He and I are very good friends. It takes guts to say what he said on the show knowing that I can’t cross my limits. There are so many friends who might end up liking you but not necessary that they have the wrong motive behind it.”
In the earlier episodes, we had seen Asim Riaz sharing a comfortable bond with wild card entrant, Himanshi Khurana and even flirting with her on and off. He was even warned by Himanshi about his constant flirting and she had also said that her fiance won’t like him flirting with her. Himanshi was later seen having a conversation with Asim at midnight in one of the episodes. During their conversation, Himanshi had told Asim that she really appreciates the way he had taken care of her during the time she had fallen ill and that she had also started liking him. In the meanwhile, Shefali Jariwala enters in between the conversation and asked Asim to confess his feelings for her.

Himanshi Khurana had further told Asim Riaz that his love is ek tarafa and she can’t do anything about it. She had also stated that she cannot control his feelings but can't even change the reality. Asim had also spoken about his feelings and had stated, “My vibe is different when I sit with you. I am not myself.” Himanshi had tried to make him understand that he will look like a ‘Majnu’ on national television.
In an interview with The Times of India before entering the house, Himanshi Khurana had revealed that she can’t fall in love inside the house as she is in a committed relationship with somebody outside. Talking about the same, she had stated, "I am not going inside the Bigg Boss 13 house to find love. I am a bit conservative when it comes to love. I can be a good friend to someone in Bigg Boss, but no love story for me. I am already in a committed relationship since last 9 years. Ek mahine ka mera koi bhi connection can't break my 9-year long relationship.”
Himanshi Khurana’s mother, in an interview with The Times of India, had talked about Himanshi and Asim Riaz’s closeness inside the house. She was quoted as saying, “Asim is a very good boy. I think it is part of his game strategy, after all, it is a show for entertainment let's not forget that. Till last week we saw that Rashami and Sidharth were at loggerheads, but now they are pally with each other. It is a game show, I don't think anyone should take it seriously. Nobody knows the future, kal kaun kahan hoga kisko pata... It is for entertainment. Life is very unpredictable, so I don't know what lies ahead. But I am happy that Himanshi has got a genuine friend inside. Asim is a very good person and I can't comment future mein kya hoga."
