His team saw my work and my potential and decided to participate in the show this year. I contacted myself for this. Never did Asim or his team approach the makers of Bigg Boss to take me on the show."

Umar will make a career in the entertainment industry

On making a career in the entertainment industry, Umar says, "Through Bigg Boss, I definitely want to make a career in TV and films. It doesn't mean that I won't practice surgery. I will pursue my interest. And I will balance both the profession."
