He said people are interested to know what's happening in their personal life, no. It's you who is spilling unnecessary bs about personal life on national TV.”Some viewers also criticised the show's editing, arguing that the makers should have removed the exchange altogether instead of muting the remark.“Instead of beeping the word, they could have at least cut that part or reshoot it.
