Bigg Boss OTT 3: Sai Ketan Rao's Co-star Shivangi Khedkar Defends His Massage Offer To Chandrika Dixit

Bigg Boss OTT 3 is growing increasingly competitive, and contestants are striving hard to keep their place on the show. Participants have also started opening up about their lives with each other, and many of them are having verbal fights. Recently, Sai Ketan Rao became a point of discussion in the house among Chandrika Rao and Sana Makbul, as he had offered a massage to the former. Shivangi Khedkar, Sai’s former co-star, reacted to the incident. She extended her support to the actor and stated the society’s mindset needs to be changed.

In one of the episodes this week, Sai Ketan Rao offered Chandrika Dixit a massage after she complained about pain in her left arm. She denied it and left, but later recounted the situation with Sana Makbul. Chandrika interpreted the situation negatively and shared that her husband would be quite upset about it. Shivangi Khedkar, Sai’s co-star, from the show Mehendi Hai Rachne Wali, expressed her dissatisfaction on social media with how the whole situation has been perceived publicly. She supported Sai, emphasising that his actions were motivated solely by his care for a fellow contender. Shivangi emphasised the need for changing societal perceptions.

Shivangi wrote, “I do not like to speak about what happens inside bigg boss because I am very well aware that the situation that they are in is very different from the outside world. I’m highly upset with the misrepresentation of a situation in a few articles about Sai Ketan Rao. Ithink there is nothing else that their PR team has to write for their artist and hence they chose this because maybe this work for them to get their artist in the limelight. Sadly, taking a massage or giving massage is taken as a sign of flirt / tease/ act of bad behaviour. But HE SAW HER IN PAIN AND LIKE A TRUE GENTLEMAN/ HUMAN BEING HE OFFERED HELP to simply make her feel better!”

She highlighted that the men on the show have behaved decently with the female contenders, but their actions are presented in a different way. “Soch badalna jaruri hai! Not just about Sai, I speak for every man inside the house. I don’t think those men are what some foolish PR team is trying to show off,” stated Shivangi. Moreover, she urged PR teams to not degrade others.
