As Bigg Boss 18 heats up, one of its contestants, Muskaan Bamne, is already making headlines, not just for her presence in the reality show but for her recent departure from the top-rated serial Anupama. Known for her portrayal of Pakhi in the hit show, Muskaan recently addressed rumors regarding cast tensions and defended lead actress Rupali Ganguly.
Muskaan Bamne, who left Anupama before joining Bigg Boss 18, shared her thoughts in an interview with IndianExpress.com. When asked about why she chose to join the reality show immediately after exiting a successful series, she revealed her admiration for Salman Khan played a big role. “Reality shows like Bigg Boss allow people to see your true personality. I’ve played characters on TV, but here, viewers will get to see the real me,” she explained.
Muskaan’s Bond with ‘Anupama’ Cast
While talking about her journey on Anupama, Muskaan expressed gratitude for the recognition the show gave her. “The show was a turning point in my career. Even now, people call me Pakhi. It’s such a nice feeling,” she shared, adding that working on the show was a wonderful experience.
Muskaan also reflected on the recent departures of Sudhanshu Pandey and Madalsa Sharma from the show, noting how much they’re missed on set. “There is no fun without Vanraj Shah, and everyone connected with Sudhanshu sir. I’ve heard the show is leaping, so new faces might be introduced,” she said.
Clearing the Air on Rupali Ganguly
Rumors have been swirling about possible tensions between Rupali Ganguly and the departing cast members, particularly Sudhanshu Pandey and Madalsa Sharma. However, Muskaan dismissed these speculations, offering a different perspective on her relationship with Rupali.
“I was the youngest on set, and Rupali ma’am was always helpful. If I didn’t understand something, she would guide me. She is very cute,” Muskaan said, putting an end to the rumors of any conflict between Rupali and the former cast members.

Muskaan’s move to Bigg Boss 18 comes as a surprise to many fans, given her success on Anupama.

Muskaan’s exit from Anupama and entry into the Bigg Boss house marks a new chapter in her career, and her candid defense of Rupali Ganguly has certainly garnered attention. Fans now eagerly wait to see her journey unfold on Bigg Boss 18.
