Shehbaz Badesha, wildcard contestant on Bigg Boss 19 and brother of actress-singer Shehnaaz Gill, has finally addressed a criticism that has followed him for years — the claim that he survives off his sister’s income. In a heartfelt conversation on the show, Shehbaz opened up about his personal journey, failures, and emotional dependence on Shehnaaz.
In a recent episode, while speaking with fellow housemate Mridul Tiwari, Shehbaz praised Mridul’s path and reflected on his own struggles. He admitted, “I was not able to earn an audience like others. Real life is outside, and I have failed there. People often tell me, ‘Behen ki kamayi pe palta hu.’ Yes, I do. My sister gives me money, and I depend on her because I have no one else.”

Addressing the trolls head-on, he said, “Her fans also say I survive on her money. If my sister is providing for me, I will happily take that. I am such a person that today if my sister jokingly tells me to jump from a cliff, I won’t take a second.”
The raw honesty in Shehbaz’s words visibly moved several contestants in the house. He further revealed that he once sold his car to invest in a music album — a project that, unfortunately, didn’t succeed.
Despite setbacks, Shehbaz said he continues to chase his dreams and looks up to Shehnaaz as his biggest inspiration. First introduced to viewers during Bigg Boss 13’s family week, Shehbaz has since tried to make his mark in the industry but admits the journey hasn’t been easy.
This emotional revelation is being seen as one of the most vulnerable moments on the show so far, offering audiences a deeper look into the man behind the headlines and internet memes.
