A few weeks into the shoot of the 14th season of
Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi
in Romania,
Asim Riaz
has already become one of the most talked-about contestants, particularly due to his arguments with others. We previously reported exclusively about a massive showdown between Asim and host
Rohit Shetty
, which led to Asim’s unexpected exit from the stunt-based reality show.
We have now learnt that before his ouster, he also had a heated argument with his co-contestant
Abhishek Kumar
following a task resulting in a verbal battle between the two.
A source associated with the reality show informed us, “The contestants had to perform two tasks back-to-back. While Abhishek managed to complete both tasks, unfortunately, Asim couldn’t. Incidentally, this didn’t sit well with Asim, and he began questioning the task. He accused the team of designing the task in a way that made it impossible for him to complete, leading to a major argument between him and Abhishek. When things seemed to be getting out of hand, a few others intervened later to calm the situation. Tension between Asim and Abhishek had already started escalating the day before the task, where they both had a physical altercation.”
While Asim was the first runner-up in the 13th season of Bigg Boss, Abhishek was the first runner-up in the 17th season of the reality show.

Yesterday, Aashish Mehrotra of Anupamaa fame posted a picture with his co-contestants, including Asim, on his social media leading to speculations that the latter was still a part of the show. However, we have learnt that it is an old picture taken when the Bigg Boss 13 runner-up was still a part of the reality show.
