Armaan Malik slapped co-contestant Vishal Pandey in the recent episode of Bigg Boss OTT 3, leaving the audience furious.
Anil Kapoor-hosted Bigg Boss OTT 3 has been making headlines since its premiere. Things have become more dramatic following a major controversy wherein Armaan Malik slapped co-contestant Vishal Pandey over certain remarks about his second wife, Kritika Malik. The incident has sparked a heated conversation among the audience and celebrities. While many have shown support for Vishal Pandey, others are slamming Malik and his wives across social media platforms. Amid this, Bigg Boss 17 first runner-up Abhishek Kumar has also reacted to the incident.
Abhishek, who recently came back from Romania after wrapping up the shooting of Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, was asked by the media for his comments on the ugly spat. During a paparazzi encounter, one said, “Your slap act is being copied,” to which the TV star smiled and gestured towards them, suggesting that there’s nothing he can do.
The Udaariyan actor was snapped on the sets of Laughter Chefs with his co-contestants, making a stylish entry in a white sweatshirt paired with cargo pants. He interacted with the media personnel, sharing his experience after the KKK shooting and posing for the cameras.
Notably, fights are not uncommon in the Bigg Boss house and Abhishek has also been a serious offender in this matter. Earlier, during his stay in the BB-17 house, the actor often locked horns with Samarth Jurel throughout the season. Things escalated further when Samarth and his girlfriend Isha Malviya started making offensive remarks about Abhishek’s mental health, eventually pushing him to the edge. The fight ended with Abhishek slapping Samarth, thus violating rules.
Abhishek was evicted for his actions but received a lot of love and support from his fans. Later, Salman Khan brought Abhishek back into the house.
