As the filmmaker entered the house of Bigg Boss 16, he also went on to explain why he wanted to be a part of the show. "I sat at home for four years. I have not been getting much work. When the channel approached me for Bigg Boss, I felt I should do the show. I want to learn and understand about myself and do some household chores like cleaning, sweeping, mopping the floor. When we are at home, we ask our staff to do all this for us and if I am able to do all this here, I think I’ll become a more humbler and a nicer person," Sajid was quoted as saying by ETimes.?

Sajid also expressed that he has seen a lot of ups and downs in his life. But, one which has been the biggest is his connection with the audience on television which he lost in the last four years.?

"I lost that connection and touch. Bigg Boss is the correct platform to connect with them once again. I don’t know for how long I will be in the house, maybe a week, two weeks or months. I want to connect with the audience again," the filmmaker added as per the media outlet.
