Ali Merchant
Television actor Ali Merchant has entered the reality show ‘Lock Up’ as the 14th contestant. Due to all the controversies surrounding his marriage with actress Sara Khan in ‘Bigg Boss 4’, his entry has grabbed the attention of many who are also a part of the show. “I am happy that I am coming in. I think I was waiting for a show like this for a very long time,” he told IANS. Or 11 days as a guest. And I was very young at that time. Then there was a very emotionally disturbing element.
“But now I have a different approach to life where I have a lot of clarity and I think in the last 12 years, there have been a lot of things that you feel, so it’s a very different approach.”
Ali has gone through a lot of ups and downs in life and nothing seems challenging for him, going on the show or facing the contestants inside.
As he said: “After ‘Bigg Boss’ I started getting very few good jobs. I had practically no work. So, I started working in a factory and had to travel for five hours everyday. Later I started doing music videos and became known. In the industry. Now, I am one of the successful DJ’s. I believe in doing everything with perfection. That’s what I will do inside the show.”
Ali’s marriage with Sara has created a lot of controversy. He has already spoken a lot about his ex-wife. Actually, once in an interview, he had said that his marriage was the biggest mistake of his life. Now, when the actor is entering the show and facing Sara, how will he deal with it.
He replied: “It is a human tendency that if everything falls in its place then no one will question but if you take a wrong step, then people start questioning your decision. At that time also with me. When two people are in love, the next step is obviously marriage.
“It must have happened after a year of relationship. I was very young at that time and getting married on national television was a great thing for us. But after coming out of the show I realized that things might not be okay.”
“Of course my relationship with Sara has had a huge impact on my career but now I’ve moved on and don’t want to say anything bad about her.”
In the show, if he has to reveal the secrets of his life, will he be able to share them and he sternly replied: “I am walking on the path of salvation. For me this show is redemption. I am free from all sins and every Accepting one. One thing I have done.”
Asked if he has any work to do with Sara, will his past affect his game and he said: “I won’t let it affect my game and I know I am the best at whatever I do.” How it should be.”
Whom he thinks will be the biggest challenge for him inside ‘Lock Up’: “I think the strongest competitor I’ve ever faced is Munawwar Farooqui and he’s going to be the biggest challenger for me. He’s very real and straightforward . I love his game. And he is doing really well inside the show,” he concluded.
