In the past few years, Bohra has participated in several reality shows including Nach Baliye 4, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6, Khatron Ke Khiladi 5, Bigg Boss 12, and was last seen in the reality show named ‘Lock Upp’. While in the show ‘Lock Upp’, he was seen telling the other participants that he was in debt and had suicidal thoughts as he was unable to pay the loans back.
He added that he had been facing a financial crisis and there were many cases lodged against him for not paying back the loan money. He stated that he would have killed himself if he had no family to look after. Reportedly, he also admitted that whatever reality shows he participated in since 2015 were all to pay back the loan amounts.
It is important to note that the actor and his wife have always been upfront to give a good lifestyle to their children. Recently the couple decided to enroll their twin daughters in a school in Canada instead of India. Also, in the year 2019, the duo had thrown a special, fanciest Halloween-themed birthday party for their twin daughters named Bella and Vienna.
