There is something about Nikki Tamboli on Bigg Boss this season. Love her, hate her, you just cannot ignore her.
Early comparisons to a young Kim Kardashian — for her intricately-done lashes, well contoured face and perfect make-up — aren’t the only reason Nikki has grabbed eyeballs on “Bigg Boss 14”. The actress, whose claim to fame so far was featuring in southern films such as “Kanchana 3”, “Chikati Gadilo Chithakotudu” and “Thippara Meesam”, has managed to be a focal point of the Bigg Boss CCTV cameras also because she carries her �desi’ Kim Kardashian image into behavioural domain too, with her loud and uninhibited antics.
Take, for instance, Nikki’s spat with TV actress Jasmin Bhasin during a task that went viral. Nikki was freely using explicit language during the fight.
On “Bigg Boss”, where ugly behavior is directly proportional to getting maximum votes, Nikki’s run continues full throttle. Ever since she entered the house, she has managed to be centre of attention for the audience, the housemates and the three Toofani Seniors we have seen till recently — Sidharth Shukla, Hina Khan and Gauhar Khan. If season 13 winner Siddharth dictated almost all that went on in the house during his stay, he was mostly seen favouring Nikki during his stint. For instance, Sidharth made Nikki a “confirmed contestant” and also declared her as the winner of the Sid Island task.
Fans loved their camaraderie so much that for a change #SidNaaz took a backseat and #SidBoli started to trend.
It’s been just over two weeks for Nikki in the house and she has managed to get a strong fan following on social media. She currently has over 680K followers on her verified Instagram account. An unverified account on Twitter, handled by Team Nikki Tamboli, has a following of 24.4K.
