Actress Sonali Raut shared a video revealing a severe skin infection, days after suing the makers of Bigg Boss Marathi 6 over unhygienic conditions inside the house. Sharing the video, Sonali wrote on Instagram on Friday (April 17), “Reality TV shouldn’t mean risking your life. I entered Bigg Boss Marathi 6 with trust, but I was pushed beyond human limits.

It’s time for accountability.”
