Rashmi Desai
Rashami Desai is going to be locked inside with her Dil Se Dil Tak co-star Siddharth and Uttaran co-star Arti Singh. Rashami and Sidharth were paired opposite each other on the fiction show Dil Se Dil Tak, which was on air a year ago, during which the two were linked.

Siddharth Shukla
Last seen in 2017 in Dil Se Dil Tak, popular TV actor Siddharth Shukla has been away from the television screen for quite some time. The actor was at loggerheads with the makers of Dil Se Dil Tak. Right from his tantrums on the set to his fights with his co-stars, his acts left the producers with no option but to replace him. The 13th edition will see him don the image of an eligible bachelor and it will be interestingly to see whose attention he grabs and if he can control his cool. Bigg Boss 13 will mark his return on TV. This is not Siddharth’s first reality show, he was previously seen in Khatron Ke Khiladi.
