MUMBAI: Bigg Boss Season 18 proved to be one of the most successful and talked-about editions of the reality show, with Karanveer Mehra taking home the winner’s trophy and Vivian Dsena finishing as the runner-up.

Among the many highlights of the season was the much-discussed friendship between contestants Chum Darang and Shrutika Arjun, which became a focal point both inside and outside the house.

Throughout their time on the show, Chum and Shrutika’s bond stood out marked by strong emotions, visible loyalty, and moments of possessiveness.

Viewers witnessed several instances where Shrutika grew uneasy over Chum’s growing rapport with fellow housemates Karanveer Mehra and Shilpa Shinde, which often led to heated arguments and emotional confrontations.

Despite the ups and downs within the house, both Chum and Shrutika, in post-show interviews, assured fans that their friendship would continue beyond Bigg Boss.

They described their bond as a lifelong connection, built on trust and shared experiences, leading many to believe their camaraderie was unshakeable.

However, recent developments have raised eyebrows and sparked speculation among fans. The two have now unfollowed each other on social media a move that has fuelled rumours of a falling-out. Adding to the buzz is the noticeable distance between them since the show ended.

While Chum has often been seen socialising with Karanveer, Shilpa, and Digvijay, Shrutika has been spending time with former housemates Baaga, Sara, and Chahat.

The lack of interaction between Chum and Shrutika post-show has only intensified rumours that their once-strong friendship may have come to an end.

Fans, who had rooted for their close bond during the show, have taken to social media to express disappointment over the apparent drift.

The duo’s dynamic was considered one of the most genuine and heartfelt friendships of the season, making this development all the more disheartening for their admirers.

While neither Chum nor Shrutika has made an official statement regarding their current equation, the silence—and the social media activity speaks volumes.

Only time will tell if this is a temporary rift or the end of a friendship that once captured the hearts of millions.
