The Bigg Boss 17 star then shared, “Ye waqt zyada din sakt rahega nhi. Ye taqt zyada din tere sarr chadega nhi. Tere apne lagayenge tauhmate tujh pe. Wada kar tu chup rahega, ladega nhi (This time will not be difficult for long. This power will not be able to overpower you for long. Your people will accuse you.
