Kumar Gaurav’s Son-In-Law
Bilal Amrohi is married to Saachi, the daughter of Kumar Gaurav and Namrata Dutt. So, technically, he is also the son-in-law of Sanjay Dutt, Namrata Dutt’s brother, which might have been one of the reasons why Baba did not take up the hosting duties this season of Bigg Boss OTT 3.
Interestingly, after Salman Khan could not take up hosting duties for the OTT Version of the celebrity reality show, it was Sanjay Dutt and Anil Kapoor who were the front runners to host the show. However, the Munnabhai actor might have opted out due to his closeness to Bilal Amrohi, just like how Farah Khan stayed away from Bigg Boss 16 since her brother Sajid Khan was participating.
Bilal Amrohi’s name has kept Bigg Boss OTT 3 fans intrigued, and they are already comparing his personality to that of Raquesh Bapat. It would be interesting to see Bilal’s journey if he actually participated in the show.
