She also wrote that she quit her job after realizing that the channel unfairly declared Sidharth as the winner of the Bigg Boss 13.
The video has received a lot of criticism on the social media and slammed the channel for their biasedness towards the Sidharth.
Colors TV has recently shared an official statement after the viral video made allegations against the channel.
In the official statement, “We at Colors would like to clarify that the individual who goes by the name Feriha (@ferihasays) is not employed or associated with our channel contrary to what she stated in her profile. The claims made by her against our channel, our spokespersons and talent are unfounded and not true. We request our fans and viewers to not believe any information coming from such inauthentic and unauthorized sources.”
After the grand finale, Asim Riaz was also asked about the channel’s biased behaviors towards Sidharth. He replied that he is the first runner up because the audience loved him and Sidharth became the winner because of the same response.
He reprimanded all the allegations on the show on being biased towards Sidharth.
The Bigg Boss 13 grand finale was held on 15 February and Salman Khan announced Sidharth Shukla as a winner of the show and Asim Riaz as the first runner up. While Shehnaaz was the second runner up.
