Bigg Boss OTT 2 runner-up Abhishek Malhan has been in the limelight for his ongoing controversy with Neeraj Goyat. The Indian boxer challenged Abhishek to fight with him in a boxing ring and praised Elvish Yadav by calling him an ‘asli influencer’. Meanwhile, a recent report has surfaced on social media, which claims that Abhishek Malhan has been approached to host the reality TV show Splitsvilla X6, alongside Sunny Leone. However, there hasn’t been any official announcement by the makers or the YouTuber.
According to a recent report by Tellychakkar, Abhishek Malhan is likely to host Splitsvilla X6 with Sunny Leone. Reportedly, the YouTuber will replace actor Tanuj Virwani, who hosted the previous season of MTV Splitsvilla.
In the last season, the Inside Edge actor believed that the show was a give-and-take equation where contestants bring real emotions to the table. However, reports claim that the makers are planning to replace him with Abhishek Malhan, looking at his massive fan following.
Moving on, Abhishek Malhan and Neeraj Goyat’s controversy has built high-voltage drama on social media. The Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant got offended by Malhan’s ‘hahaha’ comment on his boxing-related post. While talking about Abhishek, he said, “Mere saare influencer bhaiyo, ek baat kahunga—jo apni maa ka doodh pi rakha hai, boxing ring mein utro. Mere saath one-on-one fight karo, main tayar baitha hoon.”
He further said, “Meri post thi ek uspe Fukra Insaan comment mai ‘hahaha’ karke bhaag gaya. Aise bhaag kar kaam thodi chalega. Boxing ring mai aa fight kar. Asli fight karo, mai tayar baita hu (Fight for real. I am ready).”
Abhishek Malhan also took a toll on Neeraj Goyat’s controversial comment and replied, “Koi scene nahi hai Neeraj ka (There’s no scene of Neeraj). I have huge respect for him. He can say anything. He had come to ECL and got excited after seeing me.”
The YouTuber revealed that Neeraj just wants to make boxing popular, and this is why he is doing such things. “He is a nice guy. It’s just that he is using me; he wants me to reply and make boxing famous,” Abhishek Malhan added.
