Actress Shilpa Shinde has said she missed Bollywood superstar Salman Khan during her stint on the reality show, Lock Upp. 

She said that she felt he would have taken a firm stand against the “age shaming” and “work shaming” she allegedly faced inside the reality show.

During a media interaction after the show’s finale, Shilpa was asked if there was anyone she missed inside the reality show’s house.

Responding to the question, the actress said, “I have missed him (Salman Khan) at many places. Because very frankly, a lot of things have not happened in telecast, the way I was talked to. And I am talking about Shivangi Joshi.”

She further alleged that she was subjected to “age shaming” and “work shaming” inside the house.

“Age shaming, work shaming... and I remembered that the way Salmanji used to stand for those things, I missed that here,” she said.

She went on to question the message such incidents send to viewers.

Praising Salman, Shilpa concluded, “And I really missed him. That no one can be like him. No one can.”

For the uninitiated, Shilpa and Salman share a long association through the reality show Bigg Boss 11, where the actress emerged as the winner under Salman’s hosting.
