Prachi Desai, who went on from being a popular TV actress to try her luck in films, has refuted rumours that she is heading to reality show "Bigg Boss 9".

"The news is completely untrue and baseless. I was never approached by 'Bigg Boss' (officials) and I am not a part of it," Prachi said in a statement on Tuesday.

The actress, whose TV show "Kasamh Se" made her a known face, ventured into filmdom with a small part in "Rock On!!". She even featured in "Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai".

"Bigg Boss 9" is being hosted by Salman Khan. The names of several celebrities have been floating around as participants in the new season, where Salman has guaranteed some "double trouble".
