Model-turned actress Sonali Raut who created a storm in a tweet-cup with her sensuous sexy and grey debut in Ananth Mahadevan's The Xpose now heads for Season 8 of Bigg Boss.
Says Sonali excitedly, "To be very honest I am hoping to get a certain amount of visibility through this show. But more than that, I am going into Bigg Boss to have fun. I've watched the show very carefully in the past. I know it's emotionally taxing. But I think I am prepared for it."
Sonali admits The Xpose didn't get her the recognition in Bollywood that she had hoped for.
"Very frankly, Bollywood was not very welcoming. I played a character with grey shades and that went against me. Bollywood still favours the sweet goody goody girl."
Not that career disappointments have propelled Sonali into Bigg Boss. "Like I said I am here to have fun. And my biggest incentive is Salman Khan. I'll get to interact with him. I performed with him on the opening night to the song 'Jumme Ki Raat'. As far as I was concerned that was paisa vasool for me."
