I don't hate Shweta, I don't even know Shweta Tiwari! Why would I hate her? I don't have a problem with Shweta on the show either, but what I do have a problem with is her fans who put her up on this high pedestal and expect everyone to bow down in worship. That is something I, personally, cannot stand no matter who the celebrity is - I've seen the same kind of worship for many celebrities on this forum, including Shweta Tiwari, Karan Singh Grover among many others.

I supported Shweta Tiwari when Dolly started her character assassination on her and I still do. I don't think its fair for anyone to question anyone's character like that on national television. That said, I also criticized Shweta when she allowed Sameer to take a stand for her and then even be punished for it without properly supporting him like she said she would. She made all those claims about her zameer and this and that and then she just let Sameer take her zameer with him as he exited the house. Friends don't do that. Its so obvious that Shweta is in the competition to win, but so is everyone else. Why do Shweta Tiwari fans think she's better than everyone? She's not. She's a normal human being with strengths and weaknesses just like everyone else.

As far as why a lot of us don't praise Shweta ... well the answer is pretty simple. Her fans do that enough on the forum for the rest of us. I honestly get tired of how people sing her praises in this section, and I'd much rather not hear any more of that.

To clarify, when I say Shweta Tiwari fans, I do not mean all her fans are the same way. I'm sure there are some sane ones out there, problem is that most that I've come across are not. They also have this ambition to support Shweta Tiwari "no matter what" ... which is personally something I don't understand. How can you like or revere someone so much that you are willing to support them even when they're clearly wrong? This blind worship falls nothing short of idiotic in my eyes.

I do see problems with Shweta Tiwari. Although I cannot stand either, Manoj Tiwari and Veena Malik's speculations about ST have been pretty accurate. Tiwari said that Shweta uses other people's shoulders to fire her gun and Veena Malik, in today's episode, says that Shweta feels that everyone should suddenly intervene in her fights and support her and she makes her arguments a lot more bigger than they really need to be. Other people have also gotten into fights in the BB house, but Shweta's fights are always a source of more hoopla than any other. Despite that, she carries this holier than thou attitude that really bothers me.

Having said that, despite it all, Shweta Tiwari is a decent, well mannered and cultured woman. She is pretty and her fan base makes sense. I don't know anything about her as an actress, but I'm sure she's good at what she does. Giving her the benefit of doubt here.

My request to some of her more ardent fans on the forum is to stop being so obnoxious and please realize that most of us come here to discuss the show and its many contestants and not just Shweta Tiwari alone. Blindly supporting and marketing her everywhere doesn't do anyone any good. Being a fan is fine, just be a tad bit more logical and have a more open mind towards other people's opinions and refrain from calling people names and engaging in personal attacks - be it in their signatures or openly in their posts on the forum.

Editing to add that labeling people who criticize Shweta Tiwari as Dolly fans is another extremely idiotic behavior that some members on the forum have been engaging in.

i am neither a fan... nor do i hate her.. (if samir likes her HOW CAN I hate her ; ) .. ahahah jus kidin.. )

on a serious note,

FIRSTLY i jus ddnt approve of her goin back on her words of leavin wit Sam............... even if she regretd sayg dt... she shud hav kept her word ... dat wud hav gained my respect for her !!!

SECONDLY well .. attimes i do feel she is a little fake in her attitude (to shweta fans : i said AT TIMES .. not ALL TIMES ).......
for instance she used 2 shout back @ dolly wenver dolly spoke against her ...........
and wen manoj and seema were trying to tell her thats its HER fault (samir evictn incident), she didnt let them speak

but wen veena was scolded her (abt calg her jaadugarni) , she didnt open her mouth .... what i felt wus the Real Shweta (if not on tv) wud sunoafy her .. !!!!!

THIRDLY, the way she said "MAINE APNAY BAAP KI NAHI SUNI... IN ULLO KI PATHON KI KYA SUNOGI" 😲 (not sumthin 2 b proud of)
and madam.. these ullo ke pathay supported u , were on ur side, brushed away ur tears , boycotted dolly FOR u, wen it was your personal issue ...................
and u cant even listen to their instructions...........
this was THE reason they went against her !!!

It is high time Fans of any celebrity should attack personally if they do not like other's point f views
it is still a free country every one has right to air thier opinion if you do not like it tell your point of view but going personal attacks shows thier maturity and that to for a celeb who cares a hoot for the fans because all celebs are self centered why fight for them it is waste of energy
feel sorry for you deepu but i have seen this type of abusals in IF people need to grow big time it is just a show god damn it😡



I have seen people at the other end of the spectrum making snide and personal remarks about the fans constantly.. its not like these people are angels and are only making constructive criticisms about the "celebs" only.

It works both ways!

I can't speak for anyone else but I personally have no favourites. I prefer not getting too involved in the proceedings of this show. That way, it's easier for me to make unbiased decisions when I moderate this forum, lol. 😛

Just read through the entire thread.

I think this thread has (or had) good potential for a decent and constructive debate. What the topic maker wrote in his first post was, although a touchy issue, a good observation about this forum. I think the people that generally criticize ST and the ones that generally praise her, each have raised some valid points. No dispute starts on its own. Someone or the other initiates it (even if it's just in the form of a misunderstanding). More fuel is added to the fire and viola - we have a 'bashing' issue. Everything is at odd extremes. Nobody is willing to compromise because it's human nature to want to have the last word. And that's understandable. I personally think you can all work this out if you communicate and hear the other party's perspective and then attempt to give them the benefit of the doubt.

I for one am glad that despite all the differences between you guys, at least things haven't gotten as chaotic as they could have been. I don't want to mention any names but there are certain other forums on IF where a thread like this one would have reached 100 pages by now and the members would be swearing at each other, issuing death threats and wishing all kinds of calamities on their "opponents". LOL! So it's a relief to see that this one's gone only up to 20 pages. It shows that the two groups can co-exist and we haven't reached THAT level as of yet. Some of the posts were very articulate and well written. I enjoyed reading everyone's point of view.

However (and here comes the bad part) there are far too many personal attacks and snide remarks being passed for this thread to continue having a civil discussion. I have posted dozens of reminders before this incident but nobody seems to care. I hate raising WL's and would definitely not want to do that to anybody. So please don't push things and make me do something that I really don't wanna. You're all wonderful people if you ask me - but you just need to practice more tolerance!

I'm closing this thread. It's the best thing to do in order to avoid more animosity from stemming between the parties involved. The discussion doesn't appear to be going in a positive direction anyway, even though there are some objective posts in here.
