ensions rose in the latest episode of Bigg Boss 18 as contestants Shrutika Arjun and Alice Kaushik engaged in a heated confrontation. The argument began during the ‘Time God’ task and escalated, with Shrutika accusing Alice of mocking her South Indian accent. Here’s a look at what triggered the conflict and how it unfolded.
Shrutika Arjun Accuses Alice Kaushik of Mocking Her Accent
The drama started during the ‘Time God’ task, where contestants had to challenge each other’s candidacy for the role. Shrutika targeted Alice, saying she felt excluded because Alice only interacts with people in her close group. But the real tension came when Shrutika accused Alice of repeatedly mocking the way she speaks.
According to Shrutika, Alice often commented on her Tamil Nadu accent in a way that felt more like ridicule than friendly banter. Shrutika said, “There’s a difference between joking and mocking. I know when someone is making a light-hearted joke. But if you mock me and later say it’s cute, that’s not okay.”

Alice Denies the Accusation and calls Shrutika Confused
Alice immediately defended herself, claiming that she never intended to mock Shrutika and found her accent adorable. She added, “I’ve always told you it’s cute. You are misunderstanding me.”
However, the argument intensified when Shrutika insisted that Alice had crossed the line. “Every day in the changing room, you repeat the English words I say. If you’re doing it as a joke, at least own up to it,” Shrutika remarked.
Fight Escalates in the Kitchen Area
Later, the fight carried over to the kitchen area, where Alice vented her frustration to other contestants. Alice claimed that she had known a South Indian friend in school whose accent she also found amusing, implying that her comments toward Shrutika were never meant to offend.
Shrutika, however, stood firm, reminding Alice that she had previously asked her not to comment on her accent. Alice responded angrily, calling Shrutika “confused” and warned that she would “burn Shrutika’s happiness” inside the house.
