Shilpa Shetty is proud of her sister Shamita Shetty for stepping up to save her Bigg Boss OTT connection Raqesh Bapat in the most recent episode. Shamita Shetty and Raqesh Bapat were sent to the Bigg Boss confession room for the nomination task and were requested to mutually select who of the two should be saved from nomination this week. The individual who is saved will be given the opportunity to read a letter from their family.
Shamita’s Instagram account posted a clip from the episode. She urged Raqesh to read his letter in it. While he was thinking, she took up her letter and tore it, leaving him with no choice. “Maine apne aap ko nominate kiya hai isliye maine chitti faad di hai (I have nominated myself so I tore my letter),” she informed the camera, as she broke down.
Shamita then left the confession room in tears while Raqesh, who was also tearing up at that point, tried to calm her down. He then hugged her and planted a kiss on her head. The clip was shared with the caption, “‘Her soul is fierce Her heart is brave Her mind is strong’ -r.h.Sin. We’re so proud of you. Stay strong girl.”

Shilpa took to the comments section and wrote, “Sooooo proud my Tunki @shamitashetty_official,” along with a bunch of raised hands emojis and a heart emoji.
Fans, too, extended their support. “She is a very strong and very brave girl in BB ott she is always right and she showed us the correct meaning of connection. Stay strong stay happy,” a fan said. “I love her man.. they both are so supportive,” another comment read.
Earlier this month, on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, Shilpa had sent a video message to Shamita, leaving her in tears. “Big Brother and Bigg Boss just fall into our lives. Don’t know what this relationship is. But you know how we play a brother’s role in each others’ lives when the need arises. So, my brother, take care of yourself. Because if you are strong, then I am strong and our mother is strong. Mummy is good, we are all missing you. Sending you lots of love and aise hi khelte rehna (keep playing like this),” Shilpa had said in Hindi.
