I just saw a MTV India telecast of interview with FG contestants, and judges. This was taped after the Thursday results and before Friday Gala.
The guest was Shankar and he was show the clip of Arpita crying to Ila and complaining about not being in the safe zone and not getting top student when she deserved it. When asked to respond, Shankar said that she is "a fool" and "stupid" for suggesting that she is not treated fairly. He said that she has been selected as stop student and saved twice by faculty. He said she should concentrate on singing. Arpita was not there when Shankar said this.
Later Qazi was interviewed in Arpita's presence and when the host asked whether he felt bad when the other contestants ticked off his name as the person they did not want to be jodi with, he looked at Arpita and said that an artists may feel bad inside but he must never show it outside and always be happy. Arpita could not reply!
