I even told them earlier that either you keep crocodiles in the show or me)."

Furthermore, speaking about whether he would return as a Gang leader in the forthcoming season of Roadies, he said, 'Bilkul karenge. Bohot acha show hai. Itna bada show kon mana karega. Ek do sharto ke sath. (Of course, I'll do. It is a very big show. Who would say no? But, with one or two clauses)."
