Shakti Kapoor was the only male contestant to be locked up in the Bigg Boss house with 13 women when the show started this month. When he was nominated for eviction along with Mahek Chahal, Pooja Bedi and Shraddha Sharma, he lost out, and had to leave the show.

While his reputation of being a ladies' man preceded him, he surprised everyone by emerging as the father-figure of the house! He stayed away from conflicts and fights and chose to remain as neutral as possible. This, he says, was probably what got him evicted since the show thrives on controversy. He tells Rajul Hegde more. Why do you think you were evicted in spite of being more popular than the other three nominees?

There was something planned about my eviction. I did not live up to their expectation of my onscreen image on the show. Viewers also feel there is something wrong because they thought that I would win. People have a wrong opinion about me. The makers of the show got me on the show with 13 females because they thought I would sneak into girls' room at midnight and do something nasty or have an affair with the girls. But since there was no controversy or fights, I got evicted.

I didn't want to be offensive to any girl in the house. There were lots of people who tried to instigate me, but I am a gentleman and that's why I kept quiet; I could have said a lot of things but that would have been wrong. Some of them tried to link me with Shraddha Sharma but there was nothing of that sort. What was your reaction when you came to know that you are the only male in the house? I was shocked. They should have got some hunk or bachelor locked up with 13 females instead of me.
