Meanwhile, after a recent incident inside Bigg Boss 11 house, some of the contestants started believing that Sshivani is a ghost. It is said that Sshivani suddenly started gazing at Shilpa Shinde while the latter was sleeping.
She was staring without even blinking her eyes even as some contestants witnessed the weird act. Later, she was seen chanting some mantras sitting on her bed only to further spook the other contestants.
