Actor and dentist Yamini Malhotra, who entered the reality show Bigg Boss 18 as a wildcard contestant shared her real estate woes after struggling to find a house in Mumbai.

Yamini Malhotra on being refused house in Mumbai


Yamini took to Instagram and shared a post which read, “Hello guys, I just want to share something that’s been really disheartening. As much as I love Mumbai, finding a home here has been a tough journey. I have been asked questions like, ‘Are you Hindu or Muslim?’ ‘Gujarati or Marwadi?’ And as soon as people hear I am an actor, they outright refuse. Does being an actor make me less deserving of a home? It’s shocking how these questions still exist in 2025. Can we really call this the city of dreams if dreams come with conditions?”


Yamini has been a part of the television show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin as well as films like Main Teri Tu Mera and  Chuttalabbai. She was evicted from Bigg Boss 18 within a couple of weeks.

The actor told Mid-day, “I haven’t yet collected my Khatron Ke Khiladi money, but I plan to fund the education of my staff’s children. This is something I’ve been considering for a while. I’m already doing it to an extent, but some of them wish to study further, so I plan to sponsor that for them.”
