After she said no, Salman explained that even a carefully considered contestant selection can have its shortcomings.
Salman defended the casting of the contestants, saying, "We thought we would carefully select the contestants, but sometimes there are shortcomings in our selection. And when you say that there are no shortcomings, we feel there has to be one or two difficult people in our house."
