Gopika
is
a
Bigg
Boss
Malayalam
contestant
chosen
from
among
the
audience.
Gopika
has
also
managed
to
grab
the
audience's
attention
in
the
initial
period
itself.
Ex-Bigg
Boss
star
Shalini
was
there
to
support
Gopika
right
from
the
beginning.
Shalini
constantly
expresses
her
support
for
Gopika
through
social
media.
But
Shalini
often
faces
social
media
criticism
for
this.
There
were
criticisms
that
Gopika
entered
Bigg
Boss
through
Shalini's
recommendation.
A
portion
of
the
populace
was
also
observed
to
doubt
the
credibility
of
the
audition
procedure.
Now,
on
Gopika's
birthday,
Shalini
is
responding
to
the
criticism
against
her.
Shalini
responded
to
the
criticism
through
a
note
shared
on
Instagram.
Shalini's
words
in
detail:
I
have
received
criticism
for
trying
to
support
you
in
any
way
I
could.
It
doesn't
worry
me
at
all.
However,
I
have
come
across
remarks
like
"Former
contestant
Shalini
had
recommended
Gopika,
for
back
door
appointment
to
enter
the
Bigg
Boss
house," It's
a
serious
accusation.
I
personally
know
many
contestants
who
are
competing
in
this
season,
such
comments
were
never
made
against
them
and
what
happened
here
is
because
they
saw
my
pictures
with
Gopika.
All
I
have
to
do
is
convince
the
thousands
who
auditioned
for
Commoner
contestant,"
she
wrote.
"I
didn't
help
her
whatsoever
in
getting
selected
for
the
audition.
It
was
a
tough
task
for
Gopika
and
Pavi
to
prepare
the
outfits
with
only
two
days
to
go
for
the
show.
When
I
was
informed
regarding
this,
I
was
able
to
do
something
that
many
of
those
making
this
allegation
would
not
be
willing
to
do.
And
it
was
a
help
to
Gopika
when
Mirzaan,
who
did
not
reject
her
when
she
asked
for
support,
also
stood
by
her.
Unnecessary
propaganda
is
going
on
for
this
single
reason."
"This
is
the
truth.
Happy
even
if
only
ten
percent
believes.
There
are
also
evidences.
But
until
she
comes
back
after
the
show,
it
is
not
possible
to
say
more
about
it.' A
message
came
the
other
day
saying
'Ninte
Aaradi
Gopika?'(who's
Gopika
to
you).
I
have
given
a
fitting
reply
to
that
person,
so
that
he
can
be
at
peace."
"Don't
assume
that
just
because
I'm
dressed
traditionally,
I
won't
talk.
I
have
a
voice.
Not
much
to
say,
but
one
thing,
during
the
prediction
list
of
contestants
and
when
the
common
contestant
was
searched
all
over
the
social
media,
no
attempt
was
made
from
my
side
to
generate
financial
income
by
publishing
Gopika's
face
until
Asianet
released
it.
I'm
ready
to
face
whatever
comes
with
this
post,"
Shalini
added.
