Television actor and MTV Roadies 8 winner Aanchal Khurana has levelled fresh allegations against Shivangi Joshi through a series of Instagram videos. Alongside recalling a past personal incident, Aanchal also criticised Shivangi Joshi's conduct in the latest episode of Lock Upp 2. Her remarks have sparked fresh debate online, with viewers continuing to discuss Harshad Chopda's decision during the reality show.
Aanchal Khurana Recalls A Past Incident
In one of the videos posted on Instagram, Aanchal claimed that an incident took place while they were working together on a television show. According to her, Shivangi's then "private boyfriend" had visited the set, after which she and one of her friends allegedly received a lengthy message.
She said, "Kuch saal pehle mai ek show kar rahi thi. Inke so called, 'private boyfriend' hamare show are aaye aur inka ek lamba text mujhe aur meri friend ko aaya. Unhone bola, 'Mere bande se dur raho, tum unpe line maar rahi ho."
Aanchal further alleged that the man involved had not been truthful with Shivangi.
She added, "Inke bande ne inko jhooth bola."
'Mujhe Farak Sirf Iss Baat Se Padta Hai'
Continuing her remarks, Aanchal said she was never personally interested in either the man or Shivangi. She claimed her concern was with what she described as Shivangi's public image and the reaction she receives whenever she speaks about the matter.
She said, "Mujhe koi farak nahi padta. Mujhe naa uss ladke se matlab tha, na Shivangi Joshi se matlab tha. Mujhe farak sirf iss baat se padta hai ki ye jo jhoothi image portray karte hain. Jab mai fact bol deti hu tab saari inki fandom aake mujhe ulti seedhi gaaliyan bakte hain."
Aanchal also stated that she had worked closely with Shivangi and therefore believed she knew her beyond what fans see publicly.
She said, "Guys, you don't even know them personally. I have literally worked with them. Tum nahi jaante ho, tum ek maukhota dekh rahe ho."

Aanchal Criticises Shivangi Over Lock Upp 2 Episode
In another Instagram Reel, Aanchal reacted to the latest episode of Lock Upp Season 2, where Harshad Chopda surrendered his finalist position to save Shivangi Joshi from elimination.
Sharing a clip from the episode, she wrote, "Not once did she say, 'No, I have dignity, I won't take this.' All she said was 'soch lo', khairaat mai finalist."
She captioned the post, "Respect for @harshad_chopda. Shivangi couldn't stand for a friend. And she just showed her real self in today's Ep. Makers wanted Shivangi Joshi to stay that's why they gave this option to harshad, as they were expecting Shreya to vote Yogesh out which didn't happen. Scripted show"
