We are sure he will come out emerging as a winner of hearts and love. However, we are worried! Last night, seeing our son getting death threats on national television has been worrisome. Post the episode, the threats have continued to pour in via fandoms and we wonder how is this ok? It's a reality show but at the end of the day it's for entertainment."

"Let's Keep The Competition Healthy and Safe"

With the caption, "Let's Keep The Competition Healthy and Safe #ShalinBhanot #BiggBoss @voot @colorstv @endemolshineind @vootselect", they further questioned, "Why are we bringing life and death and death threats into this all? Our family is genuinely worried and we want to know how this allowed on national television? We are worried about our son, his safety and the safety of our family. There's nothing beyond our son's happiness and safety that matters to us. From Shalin Ke Mummy Aur Daddy."
