Fans of Bigg Boss 18 rallied in support of Avinash Mishra after co-contestant Aditi Mistry, along with other women of the house, were seen forcing the former to enter the swimming pool. Netizens slammed Aditi for ripping open his shirt and forcing him despite him being visibly uncomfortable.
During the episode of Bigg Boss 18 on Wednesday, Avinash was seen teaching Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga how to swim. Aditi then walked in wearing a swimsuit, and she, along with Edin Rose, Eisha Singh and Kashish Kapoor, asked Avinash to go shirtless and get into the pool as well.
While Avinash refused and tried to run inside the house, Aditi, Eisha, Edin and Kashish chased him in the garden. Not just that, but Aditi also ripped open Avinash’s shirt, forcing him to get into the pool, while Kashish and Edin too tried to take his shirt off.
Avinash, who looked visibly uncomfortable and distressed during the segment, kept refusing to take a swim, and it was then that Vivian Dsena came to his rescue. He was seen freeing the actor from the women and he even warned Aditi to never indulge in such jokes and banter again inside the house.
The entire incident did not go down well with viewers, who slammed Aditi for “harassing” Avinash and forcing him despite his will. Netizens also slammed Edin, Kashish for participating in the act and called out Eisha for not stopping the women despite being Avinash’s “best friend”.
“Idk how is this justified like he clearly was not comfortable to go in pool with Aditi but she literally came after him unbuttoning his shirt…it’s crazy and he looked traumatised to me (sic),” a netizen wrote, while another stated, “This was so wrong that you don’t even need to reverse the genders for this.”
Meanwhile, Avinash is nominated this week for eviction, along with Vivian Dsena, Sara Arfeen Khan, Kashish Kapoor, Shrutika Arjun, Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga and Karan Veer Mehra. On the other hand, Eisha will be seen becoming the new ‘Time God’ of the Bigg Boss 18 house on Thursday’s episode.
