Going by yesterdays show of the program I have been deeply hurt by the comments passed by most of the inmates on Indians in general that too over roasting a sily chicken? Why does Big Brother turn a nelson'e eye to such racist comments??

It is really unfortunate that things have come to such a stage where an actor from India is abused in such a popular show. I feel strong action need to be taken against the actor and others who commented like that. At least in modern world we do not expect racism to rule. It's heartening to see that many viewers comprising different sections of the society have complained about the incident. I expect Shipla to get over the shock of this unexpected personal attack on her and India as well. She is representing India there, so anything said to her is also like saying to India as well.
It also shows the hollowness of some contestants. When intelligence fails human they become difficult to be acknowledged as human. Out of all this negative incidents came out one positive that there are many who does not like this and in general people have condemned this.

I agree, i feel that she is being treated really badly by the rest of the girls in the housee, except Cleo of course! I just fel that they are jealous of her and because they canot have the success of lifestylee she has or the beauty and body so they are treating her in such a terrible way! It is embarassing to watch they way they talk about her nd it is hurtful to watch her go through it! i totally love her and wish she could go all the way, she may not win though since she is fofreighn but I feel she deserves to be there a lot longer!
