Eisha Singh’s Remarks Stir Controversy in Bigg Boss 18: The grand finale of Bigg Boss 18 is just around the corner, with the winner to be announced on January 19. As the show reaches its climax, the media and audience remain glued to the high-voltage drama. In the latest media round featuring the top 7 contestants, Eisha Singh found herself at the center of criticism for her controversial comments about Chum Darang’s periods during the Ticket to Finale task.
Ticket to Finale Task Turns Heated
In the previous week, the Ticket to Finale task saw a fierce competition between Vivaan Dsena and Chum Darang. The task required the contestants to hold stretchers and knock down bricks placed on each other’s side. The physical intensity led to Chum falling multiple times, even sustaining injuries.
Amid the heated challenge, Karanveer Mehra highlighted Chum’s discomfort due to her ongoing periods. However, Eisha Singh dismissed these concerns and urged Vivaan to focus solely on winning. Later, when Vivaan apologized to Chum and declined the ticket, Eisha commented that Chum was using the “woman card.” She stated, “I’m a woman too, and I know when someone is leveraging such situations.”
Media Calls Out Eisha’s Double Standards
During the media interaction, Eisha faced tough questions about her remarks. A reporter accused her of projecting a modern image on TV but harboring regressive thoughts in real life. “As a woman, you mocked another woman’s struggles. Isn’t this reinforcing the stereotype that women are their own worst enemies?” the reporter asked.
Eisha Defends Herself
In her defense, Eisha clarified, “I wasn’t mocking Chum. I’m also a woman and understand how challenging it is to work during periods. My intention was never to make fun but to avoid framing the task as a gender issue. It was about fair gameplay, not sympathy.”
Finally Eisha got drilled by Media🔥
Media : U were making fun of Chum period
Media : U were doing age shaming of Karanveer
Eisha : Mujhe cry aa rha hai
