This is not the first time that fans took to Twitter slamming Shanmukha’s performance. Earlier as well, angry fans demanded Shanmukha Priya’s eviction from the show and calling her as ‘loudspeaker and her performance ‘pathetic.’

During the episode, host Aditya Narayan was seen saying to Zeenat that Shanmukha Priya is very young, hence when netizens trolled her and demanded her eviction on social media, she took it by heart and even cried.

To this, Zeenat Aman asked her not to think about it much and ignore the criticism.
