Popular model and content creator Sana Sultan Khan is currently in reality show Bigg Boss OTT 3, hosted by Anil Kapoor. Sana has been featured in various music videos and was featured on New York’s Times Square Billboard after winning the title of UC Miss Cricket in 2019.

Before entering the Bigg Boss house, The Reelstars got in touch with Sana and asked her a few questions. Read on!

How has life changed after you tasted success?

By God’s grace, life is the same for me but people’s perspectives towards me have changed. People who thought I wasn’t fit for a project now come to me and say we always knew you had a spark and how my popularity changed people’s thoughts.

What inspired you to participate in Bigg Boss OTT 3?

I wanted a change in life. After doing music videos back-to-back, I wanted to break the monotony and do something different. I wanted people to see my real self and nothing is better than participating in Bigg Boss. Also, I think I am fit for the show – for being real and not fake.  

How are you as a person?

I am calm as well as a short-tempered person. I don’t lose my calm easily unless and until someone tries hard to poke me.

How do you plan to utilize money and fame post Bigg Boss?

I see myself writing and singing songs in the near future. I would like to invest my Bigg Boss money in building a stronger career. As for fame, I am not too desperate to stay in the news.

What are your strengths and weaknesses?

I am quite empathetic, mature, and helpful, and my weakness is being oversensitive.

Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestants include Ranvir Shorey, Shivani Kumari, Sana Makbul, Vishal Pandey, Lovekesh Kataria, Deepak Chaurasia, Sai Ketan Rao and Munisha Khatwani, among others.
