Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 is making waves not just for its thrilling stunts but also for the intense drama among contestants. The controversy kicked off with Asim Riaz’s eviction in the second episode due to inappropriate behavior towards host Rohit Shetty and fellow contestants, including Abhishek Kumar.
Recently, another heated clash erupted between Abhishek Kumar and Nimrit Ahluwalia, which has been trending on social media. The argument involved Abhishek, Nimrit, and Aashish Mehrotra and was sparked by a decision related to the show’s tasks. The conflict arose when host Rohit Shetty gave Abhishek and Aashish the authority to decide the sequence in which contestants would perform stunts and earn flags to avoid elimination. Although Abhishek initially claimed he wanted to be impartial, he eventually chose to favor his friend Shalin over Nimrit, Shilpa Shinde, and other contestants.
Nimrit felt that this decision was unfair, leading to a heated argument with Abhishek and Aashish. The dispute quickly escalated into a fiery exchange among the trio. This argument followed Rohit Shetty’s observation that Shalin failed to attempt grabbing a flag when he had the opportunity, suggesting that Nimrit might have tried for a flag and matched the number needed to be safe. Rohit Shetty questioned whether this strategy was intended to benefit Shalin, Abhishek’s friend.
Nimrit voiced her concerns, accusing Abhishek and Aashish of claiming it would be fair to sequence contestants based on their flag count while actually favoring their friends Shalin and Karan. She expressed her frustration to the host, saying, “Sir, they prioritized Shalin and Karan, who already had 5 flags, over Shilpa and Krishna, who each had 2 flags, and me, who had 4 flags. So, please don’t say that we are trying to act righteous. Just admit that you’re going with your preferences, and that will be fine.”
Aashish and Abhishek defended their decisions, which led to further exchanges and heightened tensions. Rohit Shetty intervened to restore order and ensure the competition continued smoothly.
The altercation has sparked significant debate among viewers, who have taken to social media to express their opinions. Supporters of Nimrit have praised her for standing up for herself and raising concerns about the fairness of the competition, while others have defended Aashish and Abhishek, arguing that such conflicts are a natural part of competitive reality shows.
Filmed in Romania, this season has featured some of the most demanding challenges yet, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
