EXCLUSIVE: Arshi Khan Takes A Dig At Hina Khan, Reacts, “Uska Naam Lene Se Bhi Katarati Hoon”; Questions Her Social Service Claims

Arshi Khan has sparked a fresh controversy with her candid and strongly worded remarks about Hina Khan and Shilpa Shinde’s approach to social service. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, the Bigg Boss 11 star refused to even take Hina’s name before questioning claims surrounding a hand pump allegedly donated in Hina’s name. Arshi credited Hina’s fan for the initiative while highlighting Shilpa’s efforts through her shelter.

She further urged wealthy celebrities to contribute towards those affected by ongoing problems in Assam and across India. Taking a sharp dig at celebrity culture, Arshi also said that expensive brands and lavish lifestyles alone do not make someone a true celebrity.

Arshi Khan Takes A Dig At Hina Khan

When asked about Hina Khan, Arshi Khan responded, “Yaar, aap uska naam le rahe ho. Main sach mein uska naam lene se bhi katarati hoon, us lady ka. Main sach bata rahi hoon, main uska naam bhi nahi lena chahti.”

Arshi Questions Hina’s Social Service Claims

Speaking of how Hina Khan and Shilpa Shinde both contribute to social service, then why is there hate, Arshi Khan said, “Nahi, nahi, Hina ne actually hand pump donate nahi kiya. Uske kisi fan ne uske naam se lagwa kar diya hai, ki log paani piyenge toh dua milegi. Hina ne aisa kuch nahi kiya hai. Aur Shilpa toh obviously apna paisa, apni will, jo bhi hai, jo bhi cheezein hain, woh already shelter ke andar laga rahi hai. Aap dekhte ho na, woh road se kitni boodhi-boodhi auraton ko rescue karke wahan lekar jaati hai. Toh Shilpa cheezein kar rahi hai. Karne aur karwane mein zameen-aasmaan ka fark hota hai.”

The Bigg Boss star said, “Agar aap itne paise wale celebrity hain aur Assam ke andar abhi itni zyada problem chal rahi hai, toh aap donate kijiye. Aap kyun nahi karte donate? Itne shelters aur homes hain wahan par, jaaiye, wahan donate kijiye. Main toh keh rahi hoon, agar aap itne achhe insaan hain, toh jaaiye Shilpa ke shelter mein jaakar donate kijiye. Dikha dijiye ki haan, hum bahut achhe insaan hain. Mujhse jo galti hui hai, main itni paise wali insaan hoon, lijiye.’

Concluding the actress said, “Shilpa waise legi nahi, bilkul bhi nahi legi. Yeh sachchai hai. Lekin agar aap itne bade celebs bante hain, itne paise wale bante hain, toh India ke andar itni problems chal rahi hain, toh wahan kijiye na, donate kijiye. Right? Sirf mehange ya phir bade-bade brands ke bags lekar gaadiyon mein ghoomne se celeb nahi bante hain. But woh toh koi bhi le leti hain aajkal. Maine itni ladkiyan dekhi hain jo celebrities se zyada achha lifestyle jee rahi hoti hain.”

About Hina-Arshi Controversy

The rivalry between Arshi Khan and Hina Khan, originating from Bigg Boss 11, reignited between June and August 2026, especially following a confrontation during Lock Upp Season 2 involving Shilpa Shinde. Arshi criticised Hina and her partner Rocky Jaiswal for targeting Shilpa, accusing Hina of hypocrisy and exploiting her health issues for publicity. Key points include Arshi’s strong defence of Shilpa, her allegations that Hina ignored her messages during illness, and her social media digs targeting Hina and Shivangi Joshi after the Lock Upp finale, where she mocked their past runner-up statuses.
