Shehbaz Badesha, the brother of actor Shehnaaz Gill, recently competed as a wildcard candidate on Bigg Boss 19. Shehbaz has been praised for his upbeat disposition; in fact, he is frequently seen cracking jokes and enjoying fun around the house. Shehbaz has previously stated that Bigg Boss has improved his family`s lives and that appearing on the show was a dream come true for him. He recalled how the performance helped shape Shehnaaz Gill into the person she is today.
Shehbaz Badesha recently opened up about his hardships and responded to comments from others about his sister Shehnaaz granting him financial support. He said, "I was not able to earn an audience like others. Real life is outside, and I have failed there. I have not been able to do anything. 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. Her fans also keep saying 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."
