Official Instagram Account of Sidharth Shukla / Koena Mitra
The day and date of 2 September 2021 will forever be unforgettable from the memories of many, as this was the day when the hunky and charming actor Sidharth Shukla bid adieu to the world. There have been many memories associated with the âBigg Boss' contestant, who won everyone's hearts with his most endearing smile.
Satish Sundaresan of Mid-Day exclusively spoke to actress Koena Mitra, who was Sidharth's fellow contestant in âBigg Boss' season 13. Koena speaks about the fond memories associated with the late Sidharth Shukla during her stint in âBigg Boss'.
What is your most vivid memory about Sidharth Shukla?
My best memory of Sidharth was his âGo getter attitude', which made him who he was. His fearless energy, yet childlike vibe, was an attractive assortment. I don't give statements about any deceased person cos their families get disturbed. They feel it's for publicity. I have never spoken about him during/after Bigg Boss 13 . I don't want a single soul to get disturbed due to this. With enough hesitation, I'm sharing my thoughts to celebrate his achievements, because, I feel good when I see his admirers, still trying to keep his flag high.
