Aly on Asim's KKK 14 controversy
In the podcast, Aly also discussed the Asim Riaz controversy on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14. For those who've come in late, Riaz had created a huge ruckus on the sets in Romania where he disrespected host Rohit Shetty and his co-contestants. Aly defended Asim and said that he may have been agitated by other participants on the show, which is why he lost his cool. He said, "That is his nature; he didn't like it. I want to be honest. I haven't seen the episodes, but I watched Asim's episodes especially. If it was shown so much, then, of course, a lot must have happened, and it was edited. Whatever happened, no one knows about it much."
Aly also said, "If he was reacting so aggressively, then he must have been provoked. Someone must have provoked him."
Aly also recalled an incident that occurred on Khatron Ke Khiladi 9 sets where Harsh got into a minor disagreement with co-contestant Aditya Narayan in one of the episodes. Aly said, "If the other 10-12 people who were standing, if they would have tried to calm Asim down, it wouldn't have happened. Everyone was provoking him, and so that happened. This is not Bigg Boss."
