From talking about her fight with sister Namrata, her drastic weight loss to updating fans about being COVID-19 positive; times Shilpa Shirodkar made headlines after Bigg Boss 18

In the Bigg Boss house, Shilpa shared that she had a sisterly fight with Namrata before entering the house and she often missed her. However, it was interpreted that the fight happened due to Shilpa's decision to take up Bigg Boss. To which the actress clarified, "People thought Namrata and I had a fight because of my decision to do Bigg Boss but they didn't know that she was part of my entire process of signing the contract for Bigg Boss. She was there when I signed my contract and it had nothing to do with Bigg Boss, it was just sister’s tiff. When we met we didn’t even discuss why we fought."

Shilpa got candid about suffering from depression after her mother's demise, she even spoke about how she was mentally shaken, "My parents passed away in 2007 when I was already married and had given birth to Anushka, my daughter. I was not in the industry and my parent's demise happened in short intervals. When my mother passed away in 2008 it took a toll on me emotionally and mentally. It was in a very tough phase and bohot mushkil time that Woh Jahan main guzri. With me, my entire family also went through a lot."

Shilpa had exclusively shared with Times Of India TV that she lost around 13 kgs during her stint with Bigg Boss 18 and after. This drastic weight loss had become the talk of the town. She shared, "I am now on a proper diet. I have to maintain this weight loss, and in fact, I want to lose even more weight because, on screen, you always appear bigger. I’m trying to control my portions and stick to just one or two meals a day. It feels great! For the first time in my life, I hear people saying things like, 'My God, you’ve become so slim!' But more than anything else, I love the feeling—I feel so energetic all the time."

Shilpa reacted to Rajat's comments on her, she said, 'Rajat's words had stopped affecting me in the BB 18 house only. Honestly, I don’t think I even need to give a reaction to this because I believe in each one of their own. He is doing what he knows best and I’m doing what I know best. I feel jaise Maine ghar mein reaction dena chod diya tha Waise main Yahan par bhi reaction na doon toh sahi rahega. I don’t feel bad about the kind of words he has used for me.'

Shilpa had time and again shared how she regretted missing out on Chhaiya Chhaiya because of being overweight at that time, she said, "For me, it never mattered so much when I couldn’t do Chaiyya Chaiyya at that time. It only mattered to me because it was my dream to work with Mani sir who made Dil Se. As an actor, it was my dream and there I felt it was a lost opportunity unfortunately because of my weight. Aur aisa nahi hai ke Maine koshish nahi ki to lose weight but 15 days may not have been enough time."

Shilpa was one of the guests that Vivian and his wife hadn't invited to his success party, reacting to the same, Shilpa quipped, "Honestly, I did not feel bad about not being invited to Vivian’s party. In fact, the party happened on Jan 21st and I was not even in the city but when I saw the photos the next day, I realised that Vivian and Nouran had kept the party and only the three of us were missing. I did not feel bad or hurt because it was their party and it was their decision who they wanted to invite."
