While the world witnessed their love, so did their families. Shamita and Raqesh’s feelings for each other were acknowledged by their respective families when they visited the Bigg Boss house.

While their feelings were evident to everyone who watched them together, Raqesh and Shamita didn’t commit to each other in the Bigg Boss OTT house.

While Shamita played the game and survived times in the Bigg Boss 15 house, Raqesh showed his unconditional support for her from outside. His tweets and posts for her expressed all his love in an unsaid way. Moreover, he stood up and openly spoke up for Shamita when Tejasswi Prakash accused her of trying to get close to Karan Kundrra. Not just this, but Raqesh even brought this matter up during the Bigg Boss 15 finale.
