Zeeshan Khan questions Bigg Boss 15 house rules; asks 'Has the dictionary definition of violence changed?'

Actor Zeeshan Khan may have been known for his stint in Kumkum Bhagya. However, he stood his ground when he took part in Bigg Boss OTT. Initially considered an underdog, Zeeshan surprised one and all with his strategic game play and with the hard work he put in during the tasks. However, his journey in the BB OTT house was cut-short when he got involved in a huge blowout with Pratik Sehajpal.

Given that the Bigg Boss game format has a 'strict rule' prohibiting physical violence, Zeeshan was asked to leave the house, thus ending his stint in the reality show. However, after the recent instances in Bigg Boss 15 where Karan Kundrra choke-slammed Pratik during a task and how Simba pushed Umar into the pool, several including Zeeshan are questioning if the house rules are subjective.

Voicing out the same, Zeeshan took to his Twitter handle to question if resorting to violence was the 'new normal' in the BB house. He tweeted, "Having been a big fan of the show before a contestant, I wonder why the rules are different for all housemates who are on the same platform. From Karan to Simba all have resorted to violence and are still in the house. Has the dictionary definition of violence changed?"

For those who do not know, Zeeshan, after being repeatedly instigated by Pratik during a captaincy task, pushed the latter from coming close. However, terming this as violent behaviour, Bigg Boss removed Zeeshan from the game altogether.

The actor, who was vocal about his eviction being unfair, received support from his Kumkum Bhagya actors Mugdha Chaphekar, Sriti Jha, Rehyna Pandit, Suyyash Rai and Kishwer Merchant among other industry friends. In fact, even Rashami Desai and Asim Riaz's fan clubs rallied behind the actor, calling his eviction unfair.
