While Bigg Boss often makes headlines for the contestants’ antics, this week, the reality show is grabbing eyeballs for Sreesanth’s revelations on the infamous Slapgate controversy which created a stir back in 2008. In yesterday’s episode, Bigg Boss had introduced the Captaincy task ‘Breaking News’ where the contenders Surbhi Rana and Deepak Thakur had to play reporters and extract breaking news from the contestants. The rules were simple – whoever got the best news would be declared captain.

He addressed the infamous 2008 Slapgate controversy which took place in the inaugural season of IPL when Sree’s team Kings XI Punjab beat Harbhajan Singh’s Mumbai Indians. The former had approached the latter to wish him ‘Hard Luck’ post which Harbhajan slapped him leading to Sreesanth crying inconsolably.

Sreesanth has now clarified that he wasn’t slapped but hit hard. The former cricketer also said that both of them had crossed the line at that point but now, that chapter is over and he has nothing but respect for him. He had said, “I had crossed the line. Bhajji didn’t like it as he got defeated at his home ground. It was a volcanic eruption. I was angry in the beginning but then I cried because I felt helpless.” Sreesanth ended the revelation by saying that he loves Harbhajan and his family and gets the same love in return.
