While Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 12 has been one of the most controversial shows due to its content, now it has been the talk of the town due to it contestants. Looks like the makers of Bigg Boss have left no stone unturned to make the show big and interesting as they have brought some unique nay 'vichitra' jodis in the house this year. One of the vichitra jodi being Anup jalota and his (37 years younger) girlfriend Jasleen Matharu. While many criticised the two, Bigg Boss 11 winner Shilpa Shinde, who entered the house last night as moderator for a nomination task, has a different opinion on it. The actress, who believes in 'live and let live', praises Anup Jalota for coming out in open and accepting their relationship in public.

In a statement to Pinkvilla, the actress shared her views on the same and said, "Anup ji is not an isolated example of such relationships to feel weird about it. I don't think it is wrong if two people are compatible and have developed a bond after staying together. Earlier, it was said that female should be younger than men but today the definitions have changed so if the society can except that then why not this? Also, to target him for his profession is not correct. People should keep professional and personal different. A lot of people do a lot of things in closed doors, to accept a relationship in public is not easy."

Recently, Anup Jalota was in the news after a Television actress, who requested anonymity, accused the Bhajan singer of molestation. The actress, who played a pivotal role in Colors' Devanshi, Bhagya Vidhata, to name a few, allegedly claimed that Anup Jalota had asked her for sexual favours in exchange for a role or a big break. However, there has been no complaint registered about the same. Watch this space for further updates.
