What's a season of Bigg Boss without controversies. While contestants Vikas Gupta and Shilpa Shinde have their claws out in the house of Boss,trouble awaits tantric Sshivani Durga outside the house. 

According to a Hindustan Times report, an apex body of Hindhu sadhus has plans to boycott tantric Sshivani Durgah and include her in the list of fake babas and godmen. The parishad's president said they would not hesitate in declaring such saints as fake who participate in reality TV shows like Bigg Boss. Mahant Narendra Giri criticised her entry in the house of Boss and said, "For money and media mileage, such self-styled fake saints take part in such shows or give media bytes. We will not tolerate this and will induct such controversial names in fake saint list, which is being compiled.” 

They released the first last month and disassociated themselves with 14 ‘fake babas’ including rape accused Asaram Bapu, rape convict and Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and Radhe Ma. The second list will be out after Diwali. The apex body even confirmed that they have Swami Om who was a part of Bigg Boss 10 has also been listed as fake baba.

Upset about the image of sadhus being tarnished on telly shows, He said, “Saints are doing more harm to the Sanatan Dharma.”

Even Bharat Sadhu Samaj’s national vice president, Brahamswarup Brahamchari, said that the Censor Board and the Broadcasting Corporation should come up with guidelines so that religious sentiments don’t get hurt. “Self-proclaimed Swami Om ate non-vegetarian food during his stint in the show. It is a fact he himself accepted. Both, the producers of the show and the participants play games for cheap publicity and TRP and rake in huge money. This should stop. True saints and seers should bring repute to Sanatan Dharma not disrepute” said Mahamandaleshwar Harichetnanand Maharaj of Hari Har Ashram.

Sshivani Durgah is a tantric from Noida who is among the 18 contestants in the house of Boss. She even holds two PhDs from Chicago University.
