Netflix’s hit reality series, Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, is back for an exciting third season, and fans are already buzzing with anticipation! A fan-favorite since Season 1, Neelam Kothari, opens up on her experience working with the OG and new cast members, the real, unscripted nature of the show and the impact of Bollywood wives on her personal and professional growth.
After winning hearts in the first two seasons, Neelam is once again joining her friends Bhavna Pandey, Seema Sajdeh, and Maheep Kapoor, along with the fresh faces of Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Shalini Passi, and Kalyani Chawla, to offer a glimpse into the fabulous (and sometimes dramatic) lives of Bollywood's most beloved wives.
Reflecting on her experience, Neelam shared how wonderful it was to work alongside her longtime friends and the new additions to the cast. “My comfort level with Bhavna, Seema, and Maheep is another level, and it was great having new cast members on the show. It’s made the experience a little different, and I think the audience is going to love seeing that change.”

When asked about which aspects of her personality resonate with the audience, Neelam highlighted the real, unscripted nature of the show. “Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives is a reality show, and I think the reason why people identify with it is because it’s a group of friends. One person might relate to Seema or Maheep, Bhavna, or me. Because it's non-scripted and all real, each one’s personality stands out in its own way. I think that’s why the show has done so well – it’s our authenticity that resonates with the audience.”
For Neelam, Fabulous Lives has been more than just a show – it’s been a transformative experience, both professionally and personally. “Fabulous Lives has changed my life completely. It’s opened up so many doors for me. My jewelry business has picked up, and my interior design work has grown. I also did a small cameo in Made in Heaven. It’s really been a game-changer. People who used to watch my films are now seeing me on-screen again, and even their kids have become my fans. It’s all thanks to Karan Johar—this is his brainchild. I’m grateful he gave me that little push to be a part of it.”
Talking about what fans can expect to see in S3, Neelam says, “I think season 3 is going to be a different season. It's full of surprises. Its action-packed, dhamaka; it's got a lot of soul, tears, and laughter; it's got everything.
Season 3 of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives promises to be bigger and better, with more laughter, emotional moments, and a true-to-life portrayal of friendships. Neelam Kothari’s journey through this season is sure to captivate audiences, as fans eagerly await the drama, fun, and unforgettable moments that lie ahead.
