Bigg Boss 15: Vishal Kotian reveals Shamita Shetty asked him ‘why is Tejasswi Prakash your choice and not me?’

Bigg Boss 15 contestant Vishal Kotian has said that Shamita Shetty fought with him over Tejasswi Prakash, but the latter was his priority on the show. Vishal was evicted from the ongoing reality show this week.

Quite early on the show, Vishal had developed a bond with Shamita Shetty and she used to call him ‘Anna’. Many felt Vishal was taking advantage of Shamita. After Rajiv Adatia, Shamita Shetty’s rakhi brother entered the show, the dynamics changed between Shamita and Vishal.

Talking about his equation with Shamita, especially with respect to Tejasswi Prakash, Vishal told Zoom TV, “Tejasswi and me shared a good friendship. Uss dosti ko mai badnaam nahi karna chahunga (Would not like to defame our friendship). Tejasswi stood for me till the end and even I have always said that Tejasswi will be my first choice. I even told this to Shamita that Tejasswi is my first priority. I cannot lie about relationships. Shamita even fought with me over it and asked ‘why is Tejasswi your choice and not me’. I told her I had promised Tejasswi and wanted to keep my promise.”

He added, “Shamita was angry post that but then I thought I am not Shamita’s first choice then why should she be my first choice.?” Vishal also said that he was surprised to know that Karan Kundrra is “jealous” of him because of his equation with Tejasswi.
