Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 has been making headlines, but not just for the thrilling stunts. This season has seen its fair share of controversy, especially surrounding Asim Riaz and his behavior on the show. Tensions between Asim, Shalin Bhanot, and Abhishek Kumar have sparked reactions from fans and fellow celebrities alike. Recently, Gashmeer Mahajani, who joined the show alongside Asim, shared his thoughts on the issue.
Gashmeer’s Take on the Controversy
In an interview with Tellychakkar, Gashmeer Mahajani addressed the ongoing drama, particularly Asim’s alleged misbehavior with the show’s host, Rohit Shetty. Gashmeer was clear in his stance, emphasizing that Rohit Shetty should be kept out of the controversy. “We don’t have the guts or have we achieved enough to talk about Rohit Sir or this show in any way. No one has the guts to talk about Rohit Sir… so we keep him out of this equation,” Gashmeer remarked. His statement seemed to reflect a strong respect for the host and the show’s reputation.
Comparing the Fight to Street Scuffles
When asked for his opinion on the altercations between Asim, Shalin, and Abhishek, Gashmeer downplayed the significance of the events. He likened the situation to typical street fights one might see on the roads of Mumbai, where people argue without any serious consequences. “Did you win any medal? No, right? You fought, right? Like two scoundrels fight on the road. No one raised a hand… just people who get angry with words,” Gashmeer said, suggesting that the conflict should not be given undue attention.
Understanding Asim’s Behavior
Gashmeer also discussed his personal experience with Asim Riaz, noting that his interactions with Asim had been positive. He acknowledged that everyone has different temperaments and that there might be reasons behind Asim’s actions that outsiders are unaware of. “If he has behaved rudely or crossed his limits, he must have his reasons. Everyone has a valid justification for the way they behave. Similarly, Asim must have too,” Gashmeer noted.
Asim Riaz Faces Backlash
Asim’s recent behavior, particularly his remarks about his wealth and lifestyle, have not gone down well with many. In one incident, Asim reportedly flaunted his ability to change cars every six months and suggested that he was participating in the show for his fans rather than the show itself. These comments have led to criticism from various industry figures, who see them as a display of arrogance. As a result, Asim’s actions may have isolated him from both his fellow contestants and a broader audience within the industry.
