Shiv Thakare Opens Up On Allegations Against Rajat Dalal Targetting Women
When questioned about allegations against Rajat Dalal for targeting women in the sport, in addition to claims by some women that he used them as a vote bank, Shiv Thakare said, “Yaar Rajat ka agar primary ek side bolun, toh usne support bhi kiya hai. Predominant uska side nahi le raha hoon, but ladki-ladka nahi kiya usne yeh primary bol sakta hoon. Kyunki Shrutika usi ke game mein thi, Chahat usi ke team mein thi, Manisha Rani aur Archana bhi thi. Ek time pe Archana ke saath dost nahi tha par usko bhi support kar raha tha. Yeh bhi toh ladkiyan hi thi?”
The Bigg Boss Marathi winner added,” Toh kabhi-kabhi kya hota hai, joh aapko support nahi karta hai na, aap uske liye kuch do shabd bolte ho. But aisi cheez mat bolo ki aap ladki wala card use karke kisi ko galat bol rahe ho. Agar aap dekhoge toh usne Shrutika ke liye bahut lada hai, voting ke liye Manisha ke liye lada hai, Chahat ke liye lada hai. Mujhe jitna clearly pata hai toh woh ladki-ladka wala zone nahi tha.”
Shiv Thakare Gives His Take On Prince Narula’s Game In The 50
Prince Narula had a powerful alliance on the show, which played a key role in his consistent performance. When asked whether this alliance ever felt dominating for him, Shiv Thakare said, “Mere ko khud toh dominate nahi kiya unhone. Predominant mere mudde rakh sakta tha. Predominant meri gang bana sakta tha. Meri joh team banti thi, do team banti thi hamari, ek unki aur ek meri. Mere team mein primary resolve karunga kisko captain karna hai. If unko kuch cheezein pata hai toh woh share kar dete hain ‘isko na ye cheez karte’ ya phir ‘isko vote out karte.’Toh aapko na sab milke karna padta hai.”
He further added, “Iska matlab yeh nahi hota hai ki woh dominate kar raha hai. Aap bol sakte ho agar aapko lage ki yahan pe aap zyada cheez achhe se jaante ho. Aapko nahi lagta hai toh khel lo na. If aapko koi zyada science pata hai, mujhe history pata hai. Science aap bata rahe ho toh primary bolunga ‘ye bata rahi hai isliye mujhe science nahi sunna hai’? Jab history ki baat aayegi toh primary history bataunga. Toh ye hota hai saath mein khelne ka. Hamesha dost ho, girlfriend-boyfriend ho, dono same nahi hote yaar. Dono ko kabhi sunna padta hi hai.”
The truth show winner concluded, “Toh hum log alliance mein the. Sab log dost nahi the, aur primary unko bhai bolta tha. Toh primary isliye nahi bol raha hoon. But mere ko lagta hai kuch-kuch cheezon mein woh the thoda upar toh woh share karenge. Aur jis cheez mein hum achhe the toh hamari baatein bhi suni jaati thi. Toh mere ko lagta hai mere saath nahi hua, baakiyon ke saath hua toh unhone bola. Par mere ko tha yahan pe aake bolne se achha thoda wahi pe bol lete toh maza aa jata.”
