Gautam Gulati‘s stock on Bigg Boss 8 has been on the rise since he set foot in the house. Now his army of fans is so strong that Gulati’s sensation has gripped the nation (plus points to you if you got that Harry Potter reference). Anyway enough of my nonsense, check out some of his lesser known facts about the star of this season’s Bigg Boss (he beat Gauahar Khan to become the most popular contestant) and be amazed at his greatness.

1) He auditioned for Aashiqui 2!

Things would have been rather different had he bagged the role, don’t you think?

2) He starred in a movie called Siddhartha – The Buddha

Where he played Prince Devdutt and looked really angry all the time. Also, the movie was a blockbuster in Sri Lanka which I think is a great thing!

Check those abs out!

3) He played the starring role in a short movie Coward (Darpok) and was the first Indian Television actor to walk at the Cannes Film Festival.

Of course we blogged about it. We’re aware of everything the man does! Everything! Here’s the trailer of the movie.

LOVE HOW THE DESCRIPTION OF THE MOVIE IS IN CAPS LOCK. MAKES A POINT, DOESN’T IT?

4) He has a twin brother!

Extremely fascinated by twins! Should be a remake of Judwaa with these two.

5) He was a Shiamak student

Look at those moves! We’re sure Mishti (our dance and fitness blogger at Team MissMalini, who also trained at Shiamak) will see him in a different light!

What do you think? Will he win this crazy competition?

He should!
