Actor Paras Chhabra talked about his designers going on to accuse him of not paying them the remaining dues and even damaging their clothes. Yes, Bigg Boss 13 contestant was provided with clothes every week but the stylists are claiming that the clothes returned were damaged and their dues are still pending on Paras Chabbra.
And now, yet another case has come forward which involves another Bigg Boss 13 contestant, Arhaan Khan. A stylist named Akanksha Aggarwal has come forward and accused Arhaan Khan of not returning his clothes and shoes from his stint in the show.
In an interview with a leading entertainment portal, Aggarwal said, “I have styled Arhaan khan for Big Boss Season 13. I was on collaboration terms with him (There were no styling fees charged besides other commuting/miscellaneous expenses during this styling session). But he has not returned the outfits, shoes, accessories and covered my expenses. I got this project in October 2019 and since then I was styling him for Big Boss Season 13. And now, whenever I ask him for the outfits, he is making excuses like my bag is inside the Big Boss house which is the biggest lie as confirmed by a concerned person from the show. It’s been two months since he is out from the big boss house but he is neither answering my calls, nor responding to my text messages. We, as a stylist put our image and reputation on table to get clothes from designers for these celebrities but such people have no respect and responsibility. I am in this industry since 4 years and worked with many celebrities but have not faced such kind of issues with any other celebrity till date.”
However, the portal also got in touch with Khan and he had a completely different story to the same, where he said, “Not Akansha but Rohit Roy was my stylist. She was assisting him and as he was traveling she was sending me clothes inside. Talking about her stuff being missing, so what exactly happened was kai kapde Bigg Boss ke ghar se hi wapas nahi aaye (some clothes never returned from the Bigg Boss house). Whenever I used to coordinate with Meghna from production house who used to look after all this, I was told that clothes will be sent but were never sent back. Even when my eviction happened, it was a sudden one, so I didn’t get time to pack my stuff. When first time I came out I had some 4-5 brooches which other contestants took from me and placed on their mikes if you all have seen in the episodes. After which Bigg Boss asked them to remove it as it was creating hustle in audio. They were very normal brooches so I don’t think that accessories is such a big deal. Still, I asked them to return it so that I can give them back but it never came to me. Then the task happened where housemates were asked to steal the stuff and keep in sandookh as I was not inside they stole a lot of stuff, including my personal perfume and all. Apparently vo saari chize bhi mere pass nahi aayi hai abtak wahan se (those things haven’t come to me from the house yet). So, I don’t think I should be blamed for not returning things when it has not even come back to me.”
On the accusation that Khan is avoiding the stylist’s calls, he said, “That’s an absolute lie as my staff is in touch with her constantly and we are figuring out how to get the stuff back from Endemol team. I don’t know what made her to come up with these allegations, probably the recent article on Paras has provoked her to do this and get some limelight. I don’t think there is so much stuff that one has to go and do all this. Maximum number of clothes were sent by my stylist who is in Jaipur and his stuff also got lost in this process but he has understood the situation and not created a scene like her.”
