Bigg Boss 19 is much spoken about by fanatics of the controversial reality show and celebrities. Bigg Boss 13 contestant Dalljiet Kaur, who has watched all of the show's seasons, thinks presenter Salman Khan is a little different this time around.

She expresses that his entire goal is different from what we have seen in the past, pointing out that the audience is accustomed to seeing the Bollywood star flaunt his swag during the Weekend Ka Vaar.

Dalljiet revealed in an exclusive interview with Zoom that she watches Bigg Boss 19 anytime she has free time on set in between her own filming schedule.

"This time, Salman sir looks very real, emotional, and fatherly, not just in context of Kunickaa's son, but throughout, the way he is teaching the contestants how to handle fame, the importance of social media, and that not to take yourself too seriously, which is very important," the 42-year-old actress said, pointing to how Salman handled things differently in previous seasons.

“Now, Salman sir doesn't come with the same attitude and pleasure that he did in the past. This time, he has taken it quite seriously. I think he understood how many lives are impacted,” she added.

Dalljiet only participated for two weeks before being eliminated during her time on Bigg Boss 13. She did, however, have sufficient experience with the controversial reality show and stated that she would gladly join in the current season too if given a chance.

"Bigg Boss is really different this time. Because it isn't being subtly instructed to fight this time. Otherwise, in the past, there was a clue that you were quiet and not battling. This time, it's about being sincere, kind, and mindful of the language you use. I would like to participate in a Bigg Boss like this one. I think it's fantastic," Dalljiet said as a parting note.
