Bigg Boss 16: Shiv Thakare's manager issues statement after Vikkas Manaktala's wife claims former stole her husband's clothes, perfume

Former 'Bigg Boss 16' contestant Vikkas Manaktala's wife Guunjan recently accused contestant Shiv Thakare of stealing her husband's clothes and perfume, and the latter's team has now broken their silence on the same.

Reacting to the allegations by Guunjan, Shiv's manager took to his Instagram to call it a cheap publicity move.

He issued a public statement that read, "About the latest allegations from Vikkas Manaktala's wife on Twitter, being Shiv's manager I would request her to talk to the show's team before putting out a statement on a public platform."

"And it's really shameful that she/he is doing this for cheap publicity," he added.

Guunjan's accusations against Shiv

In the latest Weekend Ka Vaar cum New Year episode, Shiv was seen wearing a quirky blue co-ord set. As soon as the episode aired on television, Guunjan took to her Twitter and claimed that the outfit was sent by her for Vikkas.

"#ShivThakre .. return #VikkasManaktala clothes . How can you even wear his clothes? His perfumes , his pink shirt you took and wore which I sent him in the first week . I saw all of this in the live feed . He dint get any of his clothes and now you are wearing it. #shameful," she tweeted.

Vikkas Manaktala evicted

Vikkas was evicted from the show last week after receiving fewer votes from the audience.

Prior to his eviction, he made headlines for his casteist comment on Archana Gautam.

During a heated argument, Vikkas had called Archana "neech jaati ke log", which stirred controversy, to the extent that the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) issued a notice to the makers of 'Bigg Boss 16'. The actor then issued an apology on national television for the same.
