Shanavas, who gained popularity for playing Rudran in the television series Kumkumapoovu, sparked yet another controversy when he suggested that another housemate, Gizele Thakral, dress more modestly to conform to Malayali cultural norms. Since then, the incident has generated a discussion among the viewers.
Shanavas engaged Gizele in discussion inside the house and gave her what he described as an advice, encouraging her to make changes in the way she dressed. Everyone is free to wear whatever they like. But if you want their love, respect, and votes from Malayalis, you have to change, he continued. While some commended the actor for being honest, others called this episode harsh and his attitude outdated. More recognition has been given to Gizele for managing this circumstance in a positive way. Her bold demeanour and sense of style won her a lot of admirers on the internet.
A number of misogynistic incidents occurred during the first week of the popular reality programme, primarily due to participant Aneesh T A. He was given the opportunity to participate in the show as a commoner following a sponsor's task. Aneesh, a resident of Kodanur in Kerala's Thrissur region, underlined in his introductory video that he would express his opinions as needed throughout the show.
He has, however, been arguing with several of the female contestants and consistently ignoring their discussions or basic greetings like "Good Morning." Since the start of the show, he has been vocal about his masculine chauvinism, which has annoyed a lot of people.
