As Family Week commenced on Bigg Boss 18 on Wednesday, Shilpa Shirodkar reunited with her daughter Anoushka Ranjit. Before entering the show, Anoushka talked about being away from her mother for so long and also revealed Shilpa's sister, actor Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu's message to her.
In a conversation with India Today, Anoushka revealed that Shilpa had been a fan of Bigg Boss for many years. "It's surreal to now watch her as a contestant, but she's done so well. Everyone in the house is really strong and has an equal chance to win the show.
They are all such different personalities and deserve to be in the finals. All I can hope is that my mother manages to win," she said.
Anoushka added that she's been hosting dinner watch parties at home, where she watches Bigg Boss 18 episodes with her friends and family.
When asked if her aunt and uncle, Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu, sent a message for Shilpa, she said, "It's interesting how both of them had the same thing to say. They told me to tell mom that they are so proud of her, and can't wait to see her with the trophy."
In a previous episode, Shilpa Shirodkar had said that she has a fight with her sister Namrata before entering the house. It happened when filmmaker Anurag Kashyap appeared on the reality show as a special guest.
He asked Shilpa about her equation with Namrata, to which she said, “Meri aur uski ek fight ho gyi thi jab main andar aa rhi thi. Toh do hafte main ussey baat nhi ki. [She and I had a fight before I entered the house. I did not talk to her for two weeks] I really really miss her a lot. I hope she comes.”
While narrating the incident, Shilpa broke down in tears. Read the full story here.
