Shoaib Ibrahim’s stint on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 stirred discussions, with some claiming bias and others questioning the quality of his dances. Critics pointed out how his wife, Dipika Kakar, often appeared on the show, sometimes with snacks or their son Ruhaan. Speculations arose that Dipika aimed to sway judges and gather votes for Shoaib. Now, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 winner Manisha Rani, now on Bigg Boss OTT 2, sheds light on whether Dipika’s actions were indeed to impress the judges.
Did Dipika Kakar try to impress Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 judges to make Shoaib Ibrahim win?
During Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11, Dipika Kakar often visited the set, bringing biryani and snacks for judges Farah Khan, Malaika Arora, and Arshad Warsi. Shoaib and Dipika even introduced their son Ruhaan during one of Shoaib’s performances. This led to speculation that Dipika aimed to sway judges for Shoaib’s win. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Manisha Rani addressed the rumors, clarifying the biryani was for judges. She mentioned respecting judges’ decisions and accepted Shoaib being Farah Khan’s favorite, stating it’s natural for judges to have preferences.
Manisha says it’s normal to try impressing judges on shows. Even if someone brings food or tries to please them, it’s okay. She explains that since Dipika is Shoaib’s wife and not working outside, she could do those things on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. Manisha suggests it’s just part of the game to try to gain favor and support for a loved one competing on the show.
Shoaib Ibrahim, along with Manisha Rani and Adrija Sinha, made it to the top 3 finalists on the show. But in the end, it was Manisha Rani who won the trophy.
