Mumbai: The latest buzz from the Bigg Boss 18 house revolves around a heated confrontation between housemates Rajat Dalal and Shilpa Shirodkar. The drama unfolds as tensions escalate with accusations of playing it safe and failing to take a clear stand in the competitive environment. This development is set to captivate audiences in the forthcoming episodes, further stirring the atmosphere in what’s already proving to be a volatile season.
A sneak peek into this impending episode reveals the initiating moment when Rajat Dalal questions Shilpa Shirodkar’s strategy and stance within the house. In the preview clip, Rajat, in a critical tone, accuses Shilpa of keeping an eye on everyone’s activities but choosing to remain silent whenever there’s a conflict. He states, “Aap sabka dhyaan rakhti ho… Agar ghar main kalesh ho raha hai aur dikh raha hai ki koi teen log kisi ko target kar rahe hai…” implying that Shilpa observes the tensions but refrains from taking a decisive position.
Interrupting Rajat’s accusatory remarks, Shilpa retorts firmly, “Jab tak baat mere pe nahi aati main koi bhi judgement nahi pass karungi.” She makes it clear that she will not pass judgment unless the issue directly involves her. This verbal clash intensifies as Rajat, known for his short temper on the show, dismisses her response and insists that no individual should presume the role of the house’s captain. Shilpa, unfazed, hits back assertively: “Aap mujhe mat bolo ki mujhe kab react karna hai,” emphasizing her autonomy over when and how she chooses to react.
In the heat of the moment, Rajat labels Shilpa as ‘phattu,’ suggesting she is scared or hesitant, indicating that she plays too safe. This comment serves as a significant flashpoint in their exchange, highlighting the brewing discord and distrust among the housemates.
The storyline doesn’t end with this argument.
. In an episode preceding this verbal clash, the atmosphere in the Bigg Boss 18 house was left charged after advocate Gunratan Sadavarte refused to participate in a task, raising tensions among the contestants. Gunratan, initially selected by fellow housemates Eisha Singh, Karan Veer Mehra, and Avinash Mishra to serve time in the Bigg Boss jail as part of a task relief for Hemlata Sharma and Tejinder Bagga, brought his drama to the forefront by refusing to comply. This act led to the task being canceled and further heightened the simmering tensions, adding more drama to the season hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan.
The conflict between Shilpa and Rajat finds additional catalysts, with powerlifter and actor Shehzada Dhami also joining the fray, criticizing Shilpa’s strategy as too cautious. This criticism from fellow contestants adds a layer of complexity to the ongoing narratives of alliances and rivalries inside the house.
