One of the most controversial reality shows on Indian national television, Bigg Boss, enjoys a huge fan base on social media. However, over the past few years, netizens have been questioning the authenticity of the makers for their treatment of contestants. Having opened up the opportunity of participating in the reality show to YouTubers and social media content creators, many have expressed their displeasure. While, YouTuber Elvish Yadav, the winner of Bigg Boss OTT season 2, recently made the headlines for his arrest in the snake venom case, actor Karan Patel opened up about his view on the show.

Karan, during a recent interaction, criticised the makers of the show for taking in TikTokers and so-called influencers as participants. He went on to state, “It's become such a dirty, disrespectful show to even be associated with.” However, the Yeh Hai Mohabbatein actor’s statement was twisted by a few media outlets.

Taking to his Instagram stories, he clarified that he did not target the makers, the host, or even the channel through his statement.

Karan Patel's Instagram Story

A part of the 40-year-old actor’s story read, “When asked about Bigg Boss, I said the show has become far more lenient over the last few years and there is no limit to how low someone can go to character assassinate someone. Salman Bhai has always requested the contestants week after week to mind their words as it’s a family show, and sometimes the episodes get so dirty that viewing it in the company of family members becomes shamefully awkward, and that's the context I meant 'dirty' in, and not in any connection to the channel, the broadcaster, or the host.” ALSO READ: Karan Patel Admits Having Alcohol While On Set, Says TV Show Kasturi Was Shelved Because Of His 'Bad Behaviour'

He went on to add how he wanted to put an end to all ‘uncalled-for reactions’ as he has immense respect for all of them. Patel also explained that he will stand by his words as he has zero tolerance for any character assassination on any show. He concluded, “Media, stick to being the medium and not the source for news.”

Over the years, Karan Patel has been a part of many iconic television serials and reality shows like Kasturi, Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, Kasautii Zindagi Kay, Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii, Kasamh Se, Nach Baliye, Survivor India, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, and Khatron Ke Khiladi.
