Even as readers discussed which personality they would like to see on Bigg Boss 5, actors Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh also tweeted their choices. And it was Karan Johar!

'I was there in KANK too but Karan Johar thought I was best suited for the deleted scenes in d SPECIAL DVD edition,' Riteish tweeted to Abhishek, referring to his deleted cameo in Karan Johar's film Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna.

Abhishek claimed that something similar had happened to him as well, during Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. 'haha bro. He did the same thing to me in K3g. Gotta get our revenge !!!!' Abhishek wrote back to Ritiesh.

Meanwhile, former Bigg Boss contestant Kamaal R Khan unexpectedly suggested a better revenge: 'If you both Riteish and Abhishek want to take revenge then send Karan Johar to Bigg Boss5 with me pls,' he tweeted.

Abhishek loved the idea, and replied: 'D! I think we should start an online petition to convince Karan Johar to join Kamaal R Khan in BIG BOSS. What say?'

Riteish agreed: 'Yes let's push for Karan Johar in BB5 -sab log shout in unison-we want KJO in BB5-(keep repeating it) hamari fariyaad kabool karooo.'

Karan was sportingly enough. He tweeted: 'thank you for your valuable suggestions about my presence in BB5...duly noted!!!'
