He adds that while hosting a show, establishing the connect and making the audience and contestants comfortable are of utmost importance. “The most important thing to keep in mind while hosting is the connect you need to establish with not only the audience but also the contestants. Making them feel comfortable is paramount."

Bijlani says that improvisation comes naturally to me and he will use this talent skilfully while hosting. "As an actor, improvisation comes naturally to me. So, that is a strength I hope to play on while I host. In the past, I’ve been on the other side as a contestant, but this time, there’s a lot more excitement since I get to be the one holding the show together.”

We wish all the best to the actor.
