The latest Shukruvaar Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 16 witnessed Salman Khan giving a reality check to Ankit Gupta and Sumbul Touqueer over their poor performance in the show. Salman Khan told Ankit that he can't see enough confidence in him to play the game as he doesn't involve much in the game, while in case of Sumbul, he said that she is lost.

However, this didn't go down well with the netizens and they took to social media to express their feelings on the same. One fan wrote, "Contestants need constructive criticism for their performance. Not mockery on their personalities. Everyone has a unique personality. Killing confidence and insulting on NTV is not OK." While, another stated, "This is the worst bb & makers will do Ankit don't deserve this kind of treatment Guardian chahiye? Why this? He took his stand he say less bt whatever he say it is very impactful in every way people listen him & I respect him just the way he is Calm & collected."

But this is not the first time when a contestant has been slammed by the host for not participating enough in the BB house and called not fit for the show. Here's a list of former Bigg Boss contestants who were also given similar feedback for their introvert nature.

Abhinav Shukla

Rubina Dilaik and her husband Abhinav Shukla participated in Bigg Boss 14. Though Rubina was quite outspoken and managed to win the title of the show, her husband was evicted from the show a few weeks before the finale round took place. Abhinav was quite introvert and preferred to talk only when it was required.
