Bigg Boss OTT’s Manisha Rani has 10 weeks MG, reveals Jennifer Kirti Singh

MUMBAI: An upcoming actor and model from Mumbai, Jennifer Kirti Singh has alleged that Bigg Boss OTT contestant Manisha Rani has got a ten week MG or minimum guarantee from the makers of the Bigg Boss OTT show. She also alleged that Manisha Rani stole her clothes and makeup items during a show, when they were sharing a common make-up room.

Jennifer Kirti Singh is not the first one to complain of Manisha Rani’s habit. Just a few days earlier, a model Pratibha Sonal Singh and a Mumbai-based DJ, Dolly Singh who had cohabited with Manisha Rani at a flat in a suburban housing society in Mumbai at Oshiwara also complained of the same problem.

According to Pratibha, Manisha Rani had a chronic habit of stealing clothes, makeup items and even undergarments the moment she got a chance. She claimed her stuff was stolen at an event in New Delhi a couple of years ago.

“The incident happened a few years ago at an event in Delhi. We were sharing the same make-up room. I went on stage for my act, leaving my personal (and expensive) make-up items and some clothes in the changing room. Manisha Rani was in the same room. After my act was over, when I returned back to the makeup room to change, the items worth nearly Rs 8000/- were gone. Manisha who was doing the next act was in the meanwhile on the stage and when I accosted her after the show was over and demanded her to show me her bags, she flatly refused. She had some two to three ruffian-looking tapori guys with her who threateningly glanced at me. As I was new in the industry and did not want to create a scene, which could offend the event organisers, I let the matter be,” Pratibha said.

An MG or minimum guarantee means the minimum number of weeks or days a contestant will be on the show and will not be evicted or will be safe from eviction. It is normally accorded to celebrities and other well-known or high profile contestants on the show.

Jennifer Kirti Singh had earlier also alleged that Manisha Rani secretly got married to a hotel owner from Kolkatta many years elder to her and later on dumped him after taking a loan of Rs 20 lakh from him.

The furious hotelier had approached the Kolkatta police and using his connections managed to get some of the money refunded or returned. Manisha “settled” the matter with the hotelier in a ‘barter deal’, Jennifer Kirti Singh had alleged, without giving any further details of the deal between Manisha and the hotelier.
