Mumbai: In a dramatic turn of events, Bigg Boss OTT 3 alums Ranvir Shorey and Sana Makbul find themselves at odds yet again. In a confrontation fueled by accusations and counter-accusations, the tension between these reality show stars has steadily escalated. The ongoing dispute reached new heights when Ranvir Shorey, widely recognized for his role in Tiger 3, demanded that Sana Makbul behave, following her claims that he harbors male chauvinistic tendencies.
In a recent interview with Indian Express, Ranvir Shorey vociferously responded to Sana’s male chauvinist label. Shorey did not mince words, lashing out by labeling Makbul as a female chauvinist. He remarked, “You only get respect when you give it to others; being a girl is not a license to misbehave and be unapologetic. When she told me something, I gave it back, so now she shouldn’t be crying over me disrespecting her. Initially, we got along very well. I used to lovingly call her Pookie. I felt really bad about commenting on her lips, but I didn’t know the dog incident. It started on a good note, but later when our fights began, she would twist the topic, and that caught on.”
The skirmishes between Sana and Ranvir were regular occurrences in the Bigg Boss house, with their confrontations frequently devolving into verbal spats laden with nasty remarks. The show’s audience witnessed these altercations firsthand, and the spectacle often descended further than what Shorey deemed civil. Shorey chastised the viewers for encouraging what he perceived as low-level behavior.
In past interviews, Sana Makbul had expressed her disdain for societal attitudes toward strong, opinionated women, singling out Ranvir as embodying male chauvinism. “Strong women are not appreciated, and he is one of those male chauvinist kind of persons who doesn’t like it if women do better than him. I don’t want to say anything about him. I have buried it all. I don’t hold any grudge against him. But if he does that, it is his way of dealing with things. When I stepped out from the Bigg Boss house, I let the bygones be bygones.
. It’s all over for me,” Makbul said.
The friction between the two did not end within the walls of the Bigg Boss house. Following the season’s conclusion, Ranvir openly critiqued Sana Makbul’s victory, calling her an “undeserving winner.” This criticism seemingly underscores a broader cultural critique about gender biases and societal expectations, something both parties address in their allegations against one another.
Mirroring the oscillating nature of their relationship, Ranvir also paradoxically praised Sana for the dedication she demonstrated throughout her stint on Bigg Boss. This oscillation adds another layer of complexity to their public feud, and one wonders if such conflicting attitudes indicate deeper unresolved issues.
Ranvir reiterated his accusation of Sana being a female chauvinist, saying, “I believe Sana is a female chauvinist. You only get respect when you give it to others; being a girl is not a license to misbehave and be unapologetic.” Sapping any sympathy that might be due to Sana, Ranvir insists that their initial rapport was amicable. “Initially, we got along very well. I used to lovingly call her Pookie. I felt really bad about commenting on her lips, but I didn’t know the dog incident. It started on a good note, but later when our fights began, she would twist the topic and that caught on.”
The conversations between these two have continuously sparked ferocious debates among viewers, dividing them into camps of Shorey supporters and Makbul defenders. Striking an empathetic chord, Sana maintained in recent interviews that strong, outspoken women are often met with resistance. “Strong women are not appreciated, and he is one of those male chauvinist kind of persons who doesn’t like it if women do better than him,” she stated. “It’s all over for me,” she concluded, implying a sense of closure on her side.
Despite the tumultuous ride, the rollercoaster of their interactions has undeniably added spice to the Bigg Boss OTT 3 narrative, creating headlines and stirring conversations. While Ranvir continues to criticize both Sana and the audience, Sana remains fixed on her stance against the societal norms targeting strong women.
Their fiery exchanges, interspersed with moments of seemingly begrudging respect, make one thing clear: the drama between Ranvir Shorey and Sana Makbul is far from over and continues to captivate audiences, igniting discussions on the deeper cultural dynamics at play in reality TV and beyond.
