Among the names that surfaced was Shoaib Ibrahim, spouse of actress Dipika Kakar. Reports suggested that Shoaib Ibrahim was set to make an appearance in Bigg Boss 18. However, in a recent vlog, Ibrahim categorically stated that he would not be participating in the show. He expressed his belief that reality shows, particularly Bigg Boss, are not suited to his personality. Ibrahim candidly mentioned feeling too "innocent" for the show, highlighting his reluctance to partake in what he perceives as a format misaligned with his personal disposition. This clarification dispels earlier rumours of his involvement and underscores the need for viewers to temper their expectations.

Meanwhile, Lavkesh Kataria, another individual linked with the upcoming season, has hinted at the possibility of participation but has not completely ruled out the option.
