Rajat Dalal calls Shilpa Shirodkar and Karan Veer Mehra’s bond ‘fake’; says, “Ek insaan 50 saal ka hai, dusra 45 ka…”

Rajat Dalal, who is currently winning hearts in the new reality show Battleground, recently appeared on a podcast with Mr. Faisu aka Faisal Sheikh. Rajat opened up about his fitness journey, his take on Bigg Boss 18, his bond with fellow participants of the reality show, and more. A clip from the podcast has been circulating on social media where he called Shilpa Shirodkar and Karan Veer Mehra’s bond ‘fake.’
It began with Rajat opening up about how fitness is very important to him and how it made him a very competitive person. Later, Rajat spoke about his journey on Bigg Boss 18 and the bonds that he made there. The reality show star is currently a judge on the fitness reality show Battleground, and fans are enjoying his journey on the show.
Mr. Faisu asked him whose bond in Bigg Boss 18 was fake. He gave him two options—Eisha Singh and Shilpa Shirodkar. He took Shilpa’s name, claiming that her bond with Karan was fake. He said, “Ek insaan 45 ka hai and dusra 50, maa-bete ka rishta kaise inka ho sakta hai? Ye log ne yahi dikhaya tha na. Eisha ki baat karu toh usne Vivian, Avinash aur mere se banaya rishta. Avinash ke sath trip kar rahi hai aur mere se bhi baat ho jaati hai, so that is real.”
Fans have been buzzing with mixed reactions ever since Rajat Dalal’s comments about Shilpa Shirodkar and Karan Veer Mehra’s bond surfaced online. While some agreed with his blunt take, calling the bond “scripted” and “unrealistic,” others came out strongly in support of Shilpa and Karan, slamming Rajat for being “disrespectful” and “ageist.” One user wrote, “Just because two mature people share a close bond doesn’t mean it’s fake.Grow up, Rajat.” Another fan commented, “He’s just trying to stay relevant by targeting others.” The clip has sparked heated debates across social media, with fans clearly divided over Rajat’s bold claims.
