While Bigg Boss 19's conflicts and controversies frequently garner media attention, Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta recently disclosed that she has had multiple invitations to participate in the reality programme. But she has repeatedly declined the offers.
She clarified that she cherishes her solitude and is unwilling to sacrifice her morals.
Tanushree revealed in an interview with Bollywood Thikana, "I have been declining to compete in Bigg Boss for the past 11 years. They try to get me to go on the show every year, but I always chastise them. I can't survive in such a setting. Everyone has their own area, so I don't even spend all of my time with my family."
Tanushree also disclosed that she turned down a sizable deal to star on the show. "They made me an offer of Rs 1.65 crore since they had previously given the same sum to a Bollywood star on par with me. I was even offered additional money by a stylist from the Bigg Boss management, but I turned it down," she continued.

"Even if they offer me the moon, I won't go. I simply cannot tolerate men and women arguing in the same room and sharing a bed. I also have very specific dietary requirements. How can they believe that I would share a bed with a guy for a reality show? No matter how many crores they offer, I'm not that cheap," she continued.
Tanushree debuted in Bollywood with Emraan Hashmi in Aashiq Banaya Aapne. She later starred in movies such as Risk, Bhagam Bhag, and 36 China Town. The 2013 television movie SuperCops vs. Super Villains was her final appearance.
