KRK, who was also a co-contestant on Bigg Boss 3 with Shamita, said, “#BiggBoss house contestants are correct about #ShamitaShetty! I did #BiggBoss3 with her in 2009, when she was 35 years old. So now she is 48 years old.” 

However, many social media users took Shamita’s side and reminded KRK that even her older sister Shilpa Shetty was younger than 48. One user wrote, “Rubbish. Shilpa is 46 how can Shamita be 48,” another said, “Google it man #ShamitaShetty." According to Google and other reports, Shamita is 42 years old.
