Mumbai: TV actor Mayur Verma, known for his role in “Swaragini”, says he will be seen in the upcoming tenth season of the controversial reality show “Bigg Boss”.
“I have been selected as a contestant for upcoming season of ‘Bigg Boss’. Last year, I had been nominated as a wild card contestant, however as it was right after my break-up with Marina (Marina Kuwar), I thought to refrain from sharing same screen space.
