Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari may be expected to overpower Bollywood actor Ashmit Patel in the nomination votes of Bigg Boss, but the latter’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar has claimed that in the last two months, Manoj has “lost fans at the same pace Ashmit has gained them.”

The PR specialist who has earlier handled the publicity for Shilpa Shetty through the thick and thin of the Big Brother racism controversy, said, “Mr Tiwari has been consistently criticizing and back-biting Ashmit and others on the show. His taunting words and vindictive attitude for Ashmit was crystal clear when he even tried to rake up the old MMS issue this week.”

“Mr Tiwari arrogantly claims, he can get away with votes, as he commands a huge fan following in Bhojpuri cinema. But I feel, his politics and over-confidence might backfire. God will punish him,” Bhagwagar commented, hinting that he was confident of Ashmit and his newly acquired fan following.
