‘Bigg Boss 13’ has been one of the most controversial seasons. While the show had high viewership and a huge fan following, but it also received a lot of backlashes as it was accused of being rigged and the contestants having access to outside information. Ex-contestant, Kishwer Merchant has also raised a question on whether this time the makers were not fair as the previous seasons.

In an interview with Zoom, Kishwer, who was part of ‘Bigg Boss 9’, said just like everyone else even she found something fishy in season 13.  The actress said,“Well, I really think. I don’t know about fixed tha ya nahi but definitely yeh hai ki he(Sidharth) didn’t deserve to win, which I have already said earlier also.

She further continued, “Pata nahi kyu but yeh season mein aisa lagta tha ki andar andar kaafi baatein bhi jaa rahi thi and kaafi saari chize ho rahi thi jo kisi season mein kabhi aisa laga nahi hai, specially because we were there in one of the seasons. So, the first thing that people ask us when we came out is whether it is rigged, whether phone milta hai, khana toh milta hoga… but nahi, actually aisa nahi tha which I realised only after I went inside the house and when I came out.

Kishwer said that she felt that the current season was rigged, “That is what I told people ki nahi aisa nahi hai, it’s not like that. But I don’t know why just while watching the show, this season, yeh feeling aayi ki nahi aisa ho raha hai andar. Kuch na kuch toh ho raha hai. I guess not only me; a lot of people had that feeling this season.

Talking about Sidharth, she said, “Even when he was negative, he was portrayed as positive, so, it didn’t make any sense. People were watching and people were passing judgements, but he was still shown in a positive light. So, it was very contrasting ki kya ho raha hai, woh kya kar raha hai aur aap use kaise dikha rahe ho.”

There have been many ex-contestants, celebrities and a certain section of the audiences who feel that Sidharth Shukla was undeserving to win the show and that the results were rigged. However, Shukla is totally unfazed from all these claims.
