India has often seen their actors blend into cricket and the cricketers blend into the entertainment industry. May it be acting in films or being part of reality shows. Romantic relationships too have blossomed between the two industries with the most famous being the pair of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma.
Despite it being an accepted norm, a recent update from the television industry has made fans fall over their feet. A rather unexpected face has entered one of India’s most controversial TV shows. Bigg Boss, a show run by Salman Khan is one of the most talked about shows.
Often stars from various industries who have a slightly controversial background take part in aspiration to win the final prize. However, this time around, the appearance of India bowler Deepak Chahar has turned a lot more heads towards the show.
He had reportedly come to drop his sister Malti Chahar who will be taking part as a wild card entry in the show. A recent advertisement from Colors TV showed Salman Khan introducing Deepak Chahar with all his accolades in cricket.
A wonderful record holder, a T20 specialist bowler who has taken a hattrick in international cricket. Deepak Chahar. We all were waiting to know who will be the second wildcard of this season.

Khan also asked Chahar about what he thinks is more difficult between playing his sport and winning the Bigg Boss event. To that, the Indian cricketer quickly said that winning the entertainment event was a far bigger challenge than the sport of cricket.
Chahar currently is not part of the Indian cricket set-up, despite once being the lead bowler of the T20I side. Now the bowler is primarily focusing on IPL cricket. He was a part of the Chennai Super Kings for 7 years before moving to the Mumbai Indians for the 2025 season.
Who is Deepak Chahar’s sister Malti Chahar?
Deepak Chahar’s sister Malti has been in the news recently as she reportedly set to join Bigg Boss as a wild card entry. Malti is an actress and director in the Indian film industry. She was born in Agra and raised in Lucknow.
Educationally, Malti has done well as she holds a degree in Software Engineering from the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET), Lucknow. Malti also has an athletic background with accolades at the national level in Jump events and Shot-put.

Later on, she went on to transition into modelling and acting. Malti made her film debut in 2018 in a movie named Genius. She also played a famous role in the movie Ishq Pashmina which was released in 2022. She also works in short films, advertisements and is very fond of content creation.
She often posts pictures with her younger brother Deepak on her social media platforms. Malti was a finalist in Femina Miss India back in 2014, and she went on to win the title of Miss Photogenic at Femina Miss India Delhi the same year.
If rumors are to be believed she will be joining as the second wildcard of the famous show. The first being singer Shehbaz Badesha. The current season of the show has been airing since the end of August and with this development of the cricketer’s family taking part, it is certain to attract more eyeballs.
