Shehnaaz Gill's Emotional Revelation About Personal Growth
Indian actress and Bigg Boss 13 fame Shehnaaz Gill recently made heartfelt revelations about the profound impact of fellow contestant Sidharth Shukla's death on her life journey. During a candid conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia in November 2025, the entertainer shared how the tragic event fundamentally changed her personality and perspective on life.
Shehnaaz acknowledged that Sidharth's passing brought an unexpected maturity to her character, stating in Hindi: "Sidharth ne mujhe bohot maturity deke gaye hai. Jab woh sab kuch hua, uske baad mein mature ho gayi, nahi toh wahi Bigg Boss wali hoti." She reflected that without this life-altering experience, she would have remained the carefree, laughing girl that audiences remembered from her Bigg Boss days.
Keeping Relationships Private and Personal Boundaries
When questioned about her current relationship status, Shehnaaz chose to maintain privacy, responding: "Let's keep this a secret. You can't give surety to any relationship, even marriage." This cautious approach extends to her future family plans as well, with the actor emphasizing that she won't publicly show her children's faces until they're old enough to decide for themselves.
The conversation took an interesting turn when Shehnaaz discussed her criteria for a life partner, revealing some unexpected preferences that surprised many fans.
Unexpected Partner Preferences and Cultural Curiosity
Shehnaaz shared that she doesn't feel restricted to marrying within her own community, expressing openness to different backgrounds: "I don't have the demand that I will only marry a Sikh guy. The guy can be Hindu, Muslim or anything, I will learn something from the guy's culture."
More surprisingly, she specifically ruled out marrying a Punjabi man, explaining: "I guarantee that I won't marry a Punjabi because I know this psychologically. I know this because I think I won't have compatibility with a Punjabi guy." She elaborated that this preference stems from wanting to experience a different culture and avoid potential personality clashes.
She provided deeper insight into her reasoning: "I don't think my energies will match with a Punjabi. We both will fight and swear at each other and I don't want that. Also, Punjabi guys are very controlling and I am myself a controlling person. They are also very truthful and honest, and I am the same. I don't want a controlling guy."
When the topic shifted to cricketers as potential partners, Shehnaaz responded with laughter but also practical concerns: "Haan kar sakte hu. It will be interesting, but will he stay loyal? Ghoomte bahut hai ye log. I feel cricketers have so many girls around them, how will they stay with only one girl?"
Throughout the emotional interview, Shehnaaz's transformation from the bubbly Bigg Boss contestant to a more thoughtful individual was evident. While she and Sidharth never publicly confirmed their relationship status during his lifetime, her reflections clearly indicate the significant role he played in her life and the lasting legacy of maturity he left behind.
The November 11, 2025 interview provided fans with rare insight into Shehnaaz's personal growth journey and how dealing with profound loss has shaped her current outlook on relationships, privacy, and personal compatibility.
