Bigg Boss 15 contestants Tejasswi Prakash and Shamita Shetty are often seen locking horns with each other on the show. In the latest episode, both the ladies got into an ugly fight after Teja called Shetty ‘Aunty’ during a task. This did not go down well with her as she lashed out at Tejasswi for age-shaming her on the show. Now fans have taken a dig at Tejasswi by sharing an old video of her where she explained how it is derogatory to call a woman ‘aunty.’
This old video of Tejasswi is from her appearance on the show ‘Ladies Vs Gentlemen’. In the episode, all the participants discussed whether calling a woman ‘aunty’ is disrespectful. While revealing that once a man a bit younger than her called her aunty, Tejasswi had said, “Mere saath hua hai. I am like, ‘Main itni bhi badi nahi hoon. Aunty?’ I’ll be honest, maine aise react kiya hai.” She added, “Maine bohot saari auntiyon ko, jo genuinely mujhse bohot badi hai, jinko main aunty hi bulaungi, unko bhi problem hui hai. A lot of people jo aunty wale age group mein hai, they don’t want to believe ki woh aunty wale age group mein hai. When Rithvik Dhanjani said it is not derogatory, Tejasswi hit back at him and said, “For women it is.”
Many users flooded Twitter by sharing this old video and slammed the actress for having double standards on Bigg Boss 15.
