“Not just during Bigg Boss but after the show too, we have been there for each other. We had spent a lot of time together. She pampered me like a mother and often said, “Tu umar mein badi hai, harkaton mein nahi’. Whenever I used to go for shoots, she checked on me. She was very protective of me and my well-being,” Arshi said.

Arshi Khan went on to say that she is internally condemning the offender and praying for justice for her deceased Bigg Boss 14 co-contestant. “My inner soul is cursing the culprit. They can’t escape karma, and our law. I feel like I have lost someone close to me. I’m really disappointed and disturbed. Trust me, she was such a beautiful soul that if they had asked her for money, she would have given it to them easily. Then why kill her? I’m sure there is a big picture behind it and I really pray to God she gets justice,” Arshi added.

Sonali Phogat died on August 22 and the cause of her death is still a complete mystery. It was initially assumed that she had suffered a heart attack, but when an autopsy revealed numerous “blunt injuries,” Goa police also filed a murder case.

Earlier, Bigg Boss 14 contestant Rahul Vaidya used Twitter to call for justice for the deceased actress. “Sonali ji was killed and drugged. I hope the offenders face swift punishment. Because what was done to her was INHUMAN! May justice soon triumph! He wrote, “#SonaliPhogat,” he wrote.
