Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 14: Asim Riaz’s Controversial Exit Shakes Up the Show
News Mania Desk/Agnibeena Ghosh/30th July 2024
The latest episode of Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 14 was nothing short of a dramatic spectacle, culminating in a high-profile exit that left fans and contestants reeling. Asim Riaz, a well-known model and contestant on the show, was dismissed following a contentious clash with host Rohit Shetty and fellow participants.
The tension erupted during a demanding task involving Asim, Aashish Mehrotra, and Niyati Fatnan, where they were required to retrieve flags from a seesaw. Only the top two finishers were to be spared from elimination. Aashish and Niyati completed the task successfully, but Asim fell short, which led to criticisms from the other contestants who urged him to take responsibility for his failure.
Reacting to his unsuccessful attempt, Asim dismissed the challenge as impossible and controversially suggested, “Do it in front of me. I won’t take a rupee from you guys. If you do it, I won’t take a rupee, camera is on.” In response, Rohit Shetty presented a rehearsal video demonstrating that the task had been completed without difficulty, indicating that all challenges are thoroughly tested before contestants attempt them.
This revelation did little to placate Asim, who remained defiant. Rohit Shetty, visibly irritated, scolded Asim, saying, “Kal bhi tune bahot bakwaas ki (Yesterday also you said a lot of nonsense).” The host’s frustration culminated in a stern warning: “Sun meri baat sunle warna mei utha ke yahi patak dunga. Aise mere se badtameezi nahi karna (Listen to me otherwise I will thrash you here. Don’t behave badly here).” Asim’s refusal to heed the warning led to a dramatic escalation, with him advancing towards Rohit until restrained by the team.
The situation further deteriorated when Asim, having referred to the other contestants as ‘losers,’ provoked a heated reaction from Abhishek. The confrontation intensified, with Asim brandishing a shoe in an aggressive manner. This clash of tempers ultimately resulted in Asim being expelled from the show.
In a subsequent statement, Rohit Shetty expressed his disappointment, saying, “I wish him all the luck but now he can’t continue in this show. He has a point of view, no doubt about it and I respect that. I wish him all the luck. He is a young kid and may god bless him with success.” This farewell from the host highlighted the end of a turbulent chapter for Asim Riaz on Khatron Ke Khiladi, underscoring the intense nature of the show and the high stakes involved.
Asim’s exit has stirred considerable buzz among fans and participants alike, marking a dramatic turn in the current season of Khatron Ke Khiladi. The episode underscores the volatile mix of competitive spirit and personal dynamics that often characterize reality television, ensuring that this season will be remembered for its intense and unpredictable moments.
