Laila N Khan was a relatively unknown name till recently. The starlet, who has done bit roles in a few films, was shocked to hear the news that Pakistani actress Laila Khan had been recently found murdered at her Igatpuri bungalow.
Incidentally, it was not just her but the makers of the reality show, too, who sat up and took notice. And sources say that it was her name that led to her being roped in for the ongoing season of Bigg Boss.
The source says, `The name Laila has already created headlines. Since the starlet shares the dead Pakistani actress' name, the Bigg Boss folk decided to rope her in to create a buzz on the show. Laila has been slotted for a wild card entry soon.
A source close to the starlet says, `Laila is under a confidentiality contract, so she cannot talk about it.` The source adds that Laila is a big fan of the show's host Salman Khan and knows some of the participants. Laila remained unavailable for comment.
