True! I hope TM is reading all the posts. I want to let him/her know too that I was a Shukla fan at the start, and in fact, even in the initial Asim/Shukla fight I sided with Shukla. In the beginning he had an amazing aura - he never talked behind anybody's back, he used to bring the whole house together to clear up misconceptions, and he genuinely appeared to be a gentleman. But we know how it was completely a facade. Now, we see him harassing women in the name of entertainment, threatening to beat other up and insulting their families, and his scenes (especially Unseen ones on Voot) are literally just sitting around with PaHira/Shefali bitching about Asim. He is not who he promised to be, and everyone has realized this at different times.
For me it was when the 'katgheras' wala Weekend Ka Vaar happened it became very clear to me that any other person would have been kicked out at this point, but Shukla was given a chance to defend himself and he was unable to. Asim put forward his points, and even mentioned 2-3 stories of how Shukla used to treat him badly, and they all touched a nerve with me. We've all been there - an older friend/cousin/relative/partner talking down to you and trying to make friends with other people by using you as the punching bag. Even Salman just nodded along to everything Asim said because there was no way to counter them! The next episode (Sunday) was when Umar/Akanksha/Parag/Jay/Mahi were there for the debate and then, with a much more under-produced Salman, we saw his opinions and he was clearly siding with Asim on the violence thing. After that, I started disliking Shukla because it was so clear that anybody else in his place would be embarrassingly kicked out of the show (humiliated to the point of hurting their longterm career) but he was kept and whitewashed. Then, of course, when "aisi ladki" happened I started despising Shukla. It has become a punchline now for the channel but remember, the phrase was "tujh jaisi ladkiyon ko maine apne ghar pe lena chhoddiya hai." This to a former colleague, co-contestant, and heavily rumored serious ex-girlfriend? And f**king Salman defending it? A new low.
