Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, which premiered on July 27, has already sparked controversy with its second episode. The spotlight was on Asim Riaz, a contestant known for his stint in Bigg Boss 13. Asim’s aggressive behavior led to a heated argument with the show’s makers, host Rohit Shetty, and fellow contestants. The incident occurred after Asim failed a stunt, resulting in disrespectful behavior towards others on the show. This did not sit well with Rohit Shetty, who sternly warned Asim with, “Utha ke yahin patak dunga.”
The incident drew reactions from various celebrities, including Arjit Taneja and Kushal Tandon. Kushal Tandon, known for his role in Barsatein Mausam Pyaar Ka, was vocal about his disapproval of Asim’s actions. Taking to his official X (formerly known as Twitter) handle, Kushal reacted to Arjit Taneja’s post, which highlighted Asim’s delusional behavior and praised Rohit Shetty for his patience.
Kushal Tandon criticized Asim Riaz for his attitude and statements. In his tweet, Kushal mentioned that Asim needed help and should not accept any money from the show’s makers as he had claimed. He expressed disbelief at Asim’s behavior and questioned his commitment to his words. Kushal’s tweet read, “I wish he did that in front of me; he really needs help. Main do teen stunt marne aya hoon, aree bhai maal nahi hain jo mar leghaaa. And when he said, ‘I will take no money if anyone can do that stunt from the team,’ then well, he should stick to his words and take no money.”
Kushal Tandon further took a jibe at Asim Riaz in another post. He reacted to a clip where Asim boasted about buying new cars every six months and flaunted his fan following and financial status. Kushal questioned the authenticity of Asim’s claims and mocked his attitude. He wrote, “Sohrat kya sohrat bro, Ek Bigg Boss? And what car is he flaunting about, second-hand cars? Kitna paisa hain be? Bank account details share karna. Hats off to Rohit Shetty sir for how he handled that crap. Huge respect for Rohit sir.”
Asim Riaz was eventually ousted from the show. Rohit Shetty addressed the incident, stating that Asim not only disrespected the show’s makers but also their profession. The controversy has added an intense layer of drama to Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, making it a topic of discussion among fans and viewers.
