Actor Jackie Shroff’s daughter and Tiger Shroff’s sister, Krishna Shroff, is all set to participate in Zee TV’s upcoming reality show Choriyaan Chali Gaon, an adaptation of the Marathi series Chala Baai Gavat. Krishna will join 11 other female contestants as they spend two and a half months living in a village, adapting to rural life and performing village-based tasks. In a recent conversation with SCREEN, Krishna shared that her father, Jackie Shroff, was the most excited about her taking on the show. She also called out fake reality show personas

Sharing how her family reacted to her participation in the show, Krishna shared, “My dad was so excited when I shared that I was doing this show. He was more excited than he has ever been compared to other projects I have done. This is what he loves. He is excited for me to come back and be able to relate to it. My brother, on the other hand, asked me if I was sure I wanted to do this. He knows the type of person I am. If I decide to do something, I give my best at it. My mom is a bit nervous, not about the experience or concept, but she will miss me. We are best friends at the end of the day, and it’s 2 and a half months away, so that’s going to be a first.”

Krishna Shroff, who was last seen on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, also explained why she took a year to choose another reality show. She shared, “It has been a year since I participated in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14. Choosing to do these shows has shown me in a whole different light and the many layers I have in my personality. Right now, my audience is niche, because they don’t fully know or understand who I am. It was a conscious decision to wait it out. With Khatron Ke Khiladi, it completely fit the brand. With this one, I don’t think anything negative can come out of it.”

“A lot of reality formats that are out these days force you to become a character that you are truly not. That takes away from the reality aspect. People come with this pre-planned objective. For me, reality is reality,” Krishna added.

Lastly, sharing what she plans to do next, Krishna Shroff said, “I enjoy doing this, but I am a business person, Tiger and I have co-founded an MMA Matrix Gym, which is doing quite well. We have signed 20 franchises pan-India now, including the dance academy that my brother has launched. Just spreading the message of fitness and propagating a healthy lifestyle for the youth is what drives me.”
