Bigg Boss 16: After Shalin Bhanot got punished from BB, Gauahar Khan, Nia Sharma, and Devoleena Bhattacharjee speak out in his support.

Shalin Bhanot, one of the Bigg Boss 16 contestants who was trending the most on Twitter last week, got injured while finishing a challenge that was shown last night.

The Shalin-Archana fight created quite a commotion and split the fans in two, with each side receiving backing. Shalin's bag is thought to have physically injured Archana as she was performing the captaincy task. Sajid Khan took advantage of the predicament and requested that Shalin be removed from the residence, which made matters worse. Shalin was thereby permanently disqualified from running for captain till the end of the current season.

Bigg Boss 7 contestent & winner Gauahar Khan voiced her disgust with the choice and her support for Shalin Bhanot on Twitter. Even Bigg Boss fan and actress Nia Sharma stated in a tweet, "Shalin's a friend. composed and tranquil. knows his limitations and is not someone who gets angry quickly. No punishment was necessary. #ShalinBhanot”

Shalin’s a friend. Calm and composed. Knows his limits and definitely not someone that loses his cool easily.
Punishment wasn’t required.#ShalinBhanot

"Jisne aankhon se dekha hi nahi," tweeted Bigg Boss 7 winner Gauahar Khan, "woh decision kar raha hai, koi doshi hai. Has the task been completed? Has the work been completed? He wasn't aggressive at all, and I don't even like Shaleen. It required work. What the heck, dear. The question "Biggboss mein aayeein hain ya park mein?" 

Jisne aankhon se dekha hi nahi , woh decide kar raha hai , koi doshi hai . Task mein sab bhaagenge nahi , rokenge nahi ??? I don’t even like shaleen , but he was not aggressive at all . It was a task . What naatak yaar . Biggboss mein aayeein hain ya park mein ?

Even Bigg Boss 15 contestant Devoleena Bhattacharjee, who wrote, "Well Shalin is not my favourite but he wasn't at fault," stood for Shalin. Kindergarten nahi, huge boss hai. In addition, the new caption's initial impression is "khudse dekha nahi butlogo k baatein sunkar doshi maan liya." #BB16

It has happened before that someone has been hurt while doing a task. The nature of the job they perform results in a handful of them becoming physically hurt during every season and task, but this is the first time an inmate has been given such a harsh punishment.
