Bigg Boss 18: Shilpa Shirodkar Defends Mahesh Babu, Namrata Shirodkar Amid Fan Criticism, Says 'I Don't Care...'
Shilpa Shirodkar’s emotional journey on Bigg Boss 18 ended just days before the grand finale. Following her eviction, Shilpa addressed criticism aimed at her family, particularly Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar, for their lack of public support.
Shilpa Shirodkar’s journey on Bigg Boss 18 came to an emotional close as she was evicted just days before the grand finale, narrowly missing the chance to compete for the coveted trophy. Following her exit, Shilpa addressed the chatter around her family’s lack of public support on social media, particularly from her brother-in-law Mahesh Babu and sister Namrata Shirodkar. Fans and trolls alike criticized the duo for not promoting or visibly supporting her during her stint on the show.
In an interview with Galatta, Shilpa candidly spoke about the situation and responded to the trolling directed at her family. When asked about the absence of social media shoutouts from Mahesh Babu and Namrata, she made her stance clear, saying, “Oh my God! Come on! You’re not gonna judge a relationship based on a post. It’s ridiculous! And truly honestly, yeh seekha hai maine Bigg Boss ke ghar mein (And honestly, this is what I have learned inside the Bigg Boss house): I don’t care what people say. I know what my family means to me. I know how much I mean to them. And I know that’s all that matters."
