Model and actor Rhiya Ahir, who became an internet sensation after courageously blocking a Mumbai Police van during student protests at Shivaji Park, has finally addressed the severe online criticism surrounding her potential entry into the upcoming season of Bigg Boss 20. Ahir recently found herself trending across social media platforms after host Salman Khan unveiled a promotional video introducing the ‘Fans Ka Faisla’ contest. In this public voting round, viewers are tasked with choosing between Rhiya and Punjabi actor-model Love Gill for the final contestant spot in the reality show, with the winner earning an ‘Extra Jeevan Daan’ and direct entry during the Grand Premiere. However, the announcement triggered strong backlash from a section of netizens who accused her of using the student movement purely as a publicity stunt to gain instant fame and secure lucrative media opportunities.
Breaking her silence on the rising trolling and negative comments, Rhiya Ahir clarified that her spontaneous action during the protest was driven purely by instinct and empathy for detained students rather than a calculated strategy for personal gain. Addressing the perception that she joined the movement to build a career in reality television, she stressed that she did not earn a single penny from the viral incident and urged people to understand the clear boundary between her personal principles and her professional life. Endorsing a fan statement that summarized her position, Ahir reiterated that she is a professional model, actor, and entrepreneur with 13 years of theatre experience who needs to earn her livelihood. She explained that while she will always stand up for what she believes is right, participating in a major project like Bigg Boss 20 is a professional opportunity that any working artist would naturally consider.
