Bigg Boss 16: Vikkas Manaktala’s wife Guunjan reacts to his fight with Archana Gautam; says, “He was provoked & pushed by Archana”
The recent episode of Bigg Boss 16 witnessed Archana Gautam doing exactly what she was earlier eliminated for. Archana got into an argument with Vikkas who was trying to boil water for tea. She told him to stop rather crudely which eventually lead to a heated argument between the two. In the heat of the moment, Archana threw the pot of water that was kept on the stove while Vikkas and Priyanka Chahar Chaudhary were standing in close proximity.
Now, Vikkas’ wife, Guunjan Walia has come forward in support of her husband. During a recent interview, she talked about it and shared, “Kitchen is common to all contestants. Vikkas only removed a pot from one of the burners, which he felt wasn’t being used, to boil water for tea. Was it such a big deal to lose your cool and pick a fight? He was very calm and composed in the beginning. Archana instigated him and threw the pan of boiling water. Vikkas and Priyanka, who were standing close, could have been hurt. Even then, they didn’t make an issue about it. Had it been Archana, she would have demanded their eviction with immediate effect. She was the one who kept screaming and shouting, while Vikkas and Priyanka maintained their dignity.”
During the argument, Vikkas snatched the pan from Archana’s hand and threw it on the ground. Talking about the same Guunjan said, “Vikkas was provoked and pushed to do that. He apologized for it, too. However, despite witnessing what transpired in the kitchen, Sumbul told others that Vikkas pushed Archana though it was the other way round. Why are they setting false narratives against him? That wasn’t cool. Is it because he is new in the house and they have difficulty accepting him, as he stands for the right? He still went out and had the courtesy to apologize, while Archana kept egging him on.”
She added, “Kudos to Vikkas for taking up the challenge of entering the house midway while others have already forged friendships and connections. He has been following his heart right from the word go and the first task. I guess that’s why he isn’t liked by some inside the house. He unmasked them immediately after his entry. He is way bigger than these petty issues and is a very strong guy. He is a warrior. I am so proud of him and the way he is on the show.”
For the unversed, this is the second time, Archana has provoked a contestant and turned violent. Earlier she was eliminated after she tried to choke Shiv Thakare.
