Bigg Boss 17: Shalin Bhanot Advices Abhishek Kumar To Exhibit Patience

Ankita Lokhande, Munawar Faruqui, Mannara Chopra, Abhishek Kumar, and Arun Mashetty are the finalists

Bigg Boss Season 17 has officially unveiled its finalists – Ankita Lokhande, Munawar Faruqui, Mannara Chopra, Abhishek Kumar, and Arun Mashetty. In a recent episode, the Bigg Boss sets witnessed a star-studded affair as various celebrities made appearances to cheer for their favourite finalists. Here's a glimpse into who visited and shared their thoughts: First in the spotlight is Arun Mashetty, who received support from producer Sandeep Sikcand and Deepika Arya, the wife of Sunny Arya aka Tehelka (Arun's best friend on the show). Sandeep Sikcand praised Arun, saying, “Arun was unique. Arun is different. Arun ko koi baggage nahi hai. Yaha pe sab log baggage leke aaye hai, koi ex-girlfriend ka, kisi ka shaadi ka baggage. [Arun has no baggage. Everyone here has brought some baggage, whether it's an ex-girlfriend's or someone's marriage baggage.] He has come without baggage, and that is what I like about him. Inhone game saaf man se, genuinely, aur real kheli hai, jaise khelni chahiye. [He played the game with a clean heart, genuinely, and in a real manner, the way it should be.]”

Deepika Arya shared her husband Sunny Arya's perspective, mentioning how since his eviction, he has been entirely focused on supporting Arun. She expressed, “Jab se Sunny yaha se evict huye hai, us bande ne mere se 2 minute bhi baat nahi kri hai. 24 ghante ‘Arun ko support karna hai, Hyderabad jana hai.' Aapko (Arun) bhai nahi pata hai, mere pati se mera talak krado. Aap le jaao. Bahut dimag khata hai. Pura din ‘Arun-Arun.' [Since Sunny got evicted from here, he hasn't spoken to me for even 2 minutes. For 24 hours, it's all about 'I have to support Arun, have to go to Hyderabad.' You (Arun) don't know, ask my husband to divorce me. Take him with you. He is obsessed. The whole day is about 'Arun-Arun.']” Deepika Arya also became emotional as she mentioned how Tehelka had lost his brother and now sees him in Arun.

Stepping into the spotlight next is Shalin Bhanot, a familiar face from Bigg Boss Season 16, who lent his support to Abhishek Kumar. Addressing the treatment Abhishek has received from other contestants, Shalin expressed concern, stating, “Is bacche ke saath me, iske mental issues ka mazak banaya gaya hai. Jo yeh already ek problem se nikal ke aya hai, uske baad aap ye expect krte hai hai ki insaan same rahega. Nahi rah payega. [This boy has been made fun of for his mental issues. After overcoming a problem, you can't expect a person to remain the same. It's not possible.]”
