‘Bigg Boss 18’ Day 1: Shehzada Dhami Sparks Controversy by Questioning Chum Darang's 'Indianness'

It's day one and claws are already out. Bigg Boss 18 contestant Chum Darang, who has worked in films like "Badhaai Do," will be seen squaring off with her co-housemate Shehzada Dhami in the upcoming episode of the controversy-ridden reality show "Bigg Boss 18."
It all began when Shehzada passed a comment suggesting that Chum, who hails from Arunachal Pradesh, is not Indian.

Chum will be seen getting offended and lashes out at the actor. Shehzada, refusing to back down is firing back just as passionately.

Before entering the show, Chum spoke to IANS and shared that she wants people to understand her and where she comes from. She had said: "'Big Boss' is a show which people watch. It's a massive, massive show."

She further said that it would be a good way to make people understand about her and her home state Arunachal Pradesh. She added: "I thought, if they'll watch me in the show, they'll be curious to know more about me and my motive was for people to understand that there is a very beautiful place called Arunachal Pradesh in the east, where the sun rises first in India.". I wanted them to know that. So that was my motive. For people to know more about me and my home state. Fitness influencer Rajat Dalal gained the limelight because of his aggression and string of controversies, which has already created a tizzy in the show. Rajat is shaping up to be the season's troublemaker-in-chief as tension builds between him and politician Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga.

Amidst all the hot action and drama, there is one solace: Gadhraj, who has been called the temporary star of the Salman Khan-hosted show. Contestant Shrutika Arjun, who is known to be full of life, keeps busy pampering Gadhraj throughout the day. She appears to be worrying over the sleeping schedule of the four-legged pet and is even trying to toilet train him.
