It all started when Sumbul, Shalin and Tina engaged in a heated argument in the Bigg Boss house. Later, Sumbul got an opportunity to speak to her father on the phone in the confession room. Her father questioned her about everyone saying how he has become ‘obsessed’ with Shalin. While Sumbul said she has no idea about what was happening, later her father told her to break all connections with Shalin and Tina.
Sumbul’s father, who called Tina and Shalin ‘kamine’, in a new interview said he is ready to apologize for his words. He told Indian Express, “I have raised Sumbul in a protective environment. When the offer came, I thought it would be a great means to let her understand duniyadari (world politics). Neither I nor Sumbul have followed the show, and I never realized that something like this would happen. Today, I regret that I chose to send my daughter to the show. It did more harm to her than favour.
“I know there are people who love her but I think it’s time she should be out. The girl who is in the house is not my daughter. She has lost her positivity and happiness. I don’t want her to go through any grief again. I would thus request her fans not to vote for her. I am praying she gets evicted this Saturday,” he further requested.
Earlier, Sumbul’s father had said that the actor cared about Shalin Bhanot because she found a ‘father figure’ in him.
