Actor Shilpa Shinde, who is also a contestant on the stunt-based TV reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, opened up about co-contestant Asim Riaz's outburst on the show, which led to his expulsion. She said that although he should have kept quiet during his argument with host Rohit Shetty, others on the show also "provoked and bullied" him.
According to Shilpa, the matter could have been settled without much hullabaloo, but it was blown out of proportion. "Actually, nothing happened. People should be humble and down-to-earth. Asim was alone on one side and others ganged up against him, provoked him, and instigated him since they knew his nature. Nobody was right or wrong in this situation. I
would say everyone was wrong," Shilpa said.
During the fiasco, Shilpa kept telling Asim to keep quiet, but he didn't adhere to her advice. Reacting to Asim's claims about having enough money and changing cars every few months, the Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai fame said he is just "talkative" and doesn't know how to express himself.
“Woh aggressive nahin tha, but he is talkative... he wanted to share his experience and the pain he has gone through. Usko zyada bolne ki aadat hai. Usko chup karana padta hai. Uske bolne ka andaaz galat ho sakata hai (He was not an aggressive person. He is extremely talkative and doesn’t know where to stop, which backfired),” said Shilpa.
