Bigg Boss 18 has kept viewers on the edge of their seats in the nine weeks since it first aired on October 6, 2024, as it continually amps up the excitement and drama with new twists. From celebrity guests like Ekta Kapoor and Rohit Shetty taking up Salman Khan's usual designation as host to five wild cards entering the house to shake things up, the makers certainly know how to keep things interesting. In their latest ploy, the showrunners are attempting to get contestants playing safe to reveal their real personalities to viewers. A few popular journalists will enter the house in the upcoming episode and ask the housemates tough questions, and the promo for the same shows Karan Veer Mehra being grilled about his dark past.
Actor and Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 winner, Karan Veer Mehra has surely but steadily been winning the hearts of fans with his stint in Bigg Boss 18. From being lauded for his witty one-liners to being hailed for his poise whenever people taunt him about his turbulent past, Karan has quickly become a favourite among viewers. However, some still believe that the actor is playing it too safe inside the house and hiding his real persona.
Well, the promo for the upcoming episode revealed that journalist, Saurabh Dwivedi will enter the house and give Karan another reality check. During their conversation, the former digs into Karan's dark past, asking him if he had been looking for peace in alcohol. The Biwi Aur Main actor honestly confessed that Saurabh wasn't wrong in what he was alleging, and said:
“Ek time pe alcoholic ho gaya tha main."
Karan Veer Mehra's two divorces from his ex-wives, Devika Mehra and Nidhi Seth are no secret. Rather, his failed relationships are frequently brought up inside the Bigg Boss house, with housemates using his past to taunt him about being 'toxic.' Well, journalist, Saurabh Dwivedi asked Karan to address the same, asking him, "Relationship aapke workout nahi hue. Aapko toxic bataya jata hai.” Karan, showing off his vulnerable side again, opened up about what hurt him the most about his past. In his words:
"Takleef is baat ki hoti hain ki do logon ke zindagi mein nahi hota toh sahi rehta."
The promo ends with Saurabh asking Karan how long he will continue to put up an act, as his real personality will eventually come out sooner or later. Viewers will have to wait for the upcoming episode to be released in order to hear Karan's response.

For the unversed, the reason behind Karan's split from his first wife, Devika has never been revealed. The most the actor has said about the divorce is that their decision to marry was taken in haste, which led to compatibility issues later. Prior to their marriage, the ex-couple had been dating for 10 years and had been childhood sweethearts.
However, his second marriage with actress, Nidhi Seth reportedly ended on very bad terms, with her even describing the marriage as one of her biggest mistakes in life. She can be quoted as saying:
"That was the biggest mistake of my life. Once I realized that things weren't working out, I decided to move. Unfortunately, there isn't enough awareness in this world about certain personality traits and behaviour which can ruin relationships. We had separated a year ago. I believe that daily fights are intolerable in a relationship. And in such a situation, we can never live together. Mental peace, respect for each other, honesty and being financially capable are essential in a marriage. I feel that toxicity in a relationship should not be accepted."
