There are a lot of actors that have gone for adoption to embrace parenthood. Sushmita Sen immediately comes to mind. And another name that comes to mind is Sunny Leone, who adopted a baby girl from Latur, Nisha Kaur Weber. And Leone seems to have inspired Shefali Jariwala, who has spoken to Times of India about how Leone's story moved her.

She said, "I discussed adopting a baby with Hindustani Bhau inside the Bigg Boss 13 house. I was actually moved by Sunny Leone's decision when she adopted a girl child. I always wanted to adopt a baby girl and after I got married to Parag when we were discussing about starting a family." She added, "I shared my views with him and he is a very supportive husband."

Highlighting the importance of adoption, the actress said, "There are a lot of children in the world who need home and I think I am in a position where I can give them a secure, good life then why not. I want to give that child a good home, education and a good life because God has given me everything!"

And if all goes well, there might be a new little member in the house very soon. "I have been blessed with all this so I want to share my blessings with that child. But the adoption process in this country is a little tedious. There's a lot of paperwork involved and there's a lot of waiting also. So we are currently in the middle of the process and if God is kind and your wishes are with us, my dream to bring my child home will come true. I'll become a mother and bring a lovely girl home," said Jariwala.

Relationships in Tinsel Town can be very fragile. There are a lot of couples that got married and there are more couples that drifted apart due to irreparable differences. One of the couples is Shefali Jariwala and Sidharth Shukla. Shefali turned a lot of heads and made a lot of noise when she became the wild-card entry in Bigg Boss 13 last year, and her bonding with Shukla could clearly be seen. And speaking to BollywoodLife, she spilled the beans on her past and current relationship with the actor.

She said, "See, initially we bonded and then we had a bad fight. After he came back from the secret room, our equation got better. Both of us are very logical people. Also, we have similar interests, we would talk about travel, space, bullet trains and what not. Even after we stopped dating, we were always cordial whenever we bumped into each other."

And then, talking about his relationship with Shehnaaz Gill, she said, "See, that is my opinion of their equation from what I saw inside the house. Sidharth definitely cares for her but I did not find it a romantic equation per se. However, saying that, I would be happy if they indeed fell in love and got married. It would be great. It will be wonderful."

Bigg Boss contestant, Shefali Bagga in a conversation with Shweta Rashmi, talks about her routine during the lockdown, her upcoming projects, and much more.

It's Shefali Bagga versus all the celeb contestants inside the house!

Day 24 inside the Bigg Boss house gets super interesting when Shefali Bagga shows off her journalistic skills.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration if I called yesterday's episode of Bigg Boss the ugliest of this season.

Three contestants got evicted on Bigg Boss 13, and were replaced by wild card entrants.

'Sidharth and Paras think they are playing games but I feel Shehnaz is playing them.'

During the captaincy task, Asim Riaz and Shefali Jariwala have a showdown after which the latter declares that she no longer wants to share an equation with him.

Siddharth Shukla is no longer the villain in the house at least for now!

Beating Shehnaaz Gill, Asim Riaz became the first housemate to enter the Elite Club. He won a special power which will help him in the game going forward.

Shefali Jariwala's re-entry in the house has made Shehnaaz Gill and Asim Riaz quite uncomfortable. Will this lead to more fights?

'There is too much pressure in the Bigg Boss house.'
