Nikki Tamboli is going through the toughest times of her life. The Bigg Boss 14 contestant received the ‘biggest shock’ of her life as her brother succumbed to COVID 19. Yes, Nikki’s 29-year-old brother, Jatin Tamboli, passed away due to COVID, leaving the family in a void. While Nikki is reeling in pain, the actress has gathered herself for a new journey in Khatron Ke Khiladi 11. Along with her, we have her BB 14 co-contestant Abhinav Shukla participating in the show too.

“She is okay, she is good. Of course, it is a big loss. Her brother was very young, so it is a big loss. It will take time. Time heals everything, it will take time. All we can do is lend her any support or help that she needs,” Abhinav Shukla shared.
