Actress Shilpa Shirodkar was left in tears in the latest episode of Bigg Boss 18 following a comment made by fellow contestant Shrutika Arjun.
The drama unfolded during a task in which housemates were required to read comments made about them by others and identify who made those comments.
The comment Shilpa read out said, “Is she behaving her age? She keeps saying she doesn’t want to be linked up here because it would be a bad reputation for her. But then she pushes Chum towards Karan Veer. If she has a daughter, would she teach her this? I don’t like double standards. She shows motherly love but does things for footage.”
Upon reading the comment, Shilpa correctly identified Shrutika as the source. Shilpa couldn’t hold back her tears. With a heavy heart, she confided in her close friends inside the house, Chum Darang and Vivian Dsena. She said she was deeply hurt that her 20-year old daughter was dragged into discussions in the house.
Despite Shrutika’s attempts to justify her comment as part of the game, Shilpa remained unconvinced. She even expressed her desire to quit the show. In a conversation with Vivian, Shilpa revealed her growing discomfort with the atmosphere in the house, especially with contestants like Shrutika, who she feels have crossed a line by involving her family.
Chum, who has been one of Shilpa’s closest confidantes in the house, offered words of encouragement and support. However, the senior actress seemed inconsolable. Vivian also tried to calm her down, reminding her of her strength and integrity.
This incident is the latest in a series of confrontations between Shilpa and Shrutika. The tension between the two had been building for weeks, with Shrutika previously questioning Shilpa’s sincerity.
The Weekend Ka Vaar episodes this week featured Dolly Chaiwala, Ashneer Grover, Vikrant Massey and Rashii Khanna as special guests.
