Asim Riaz, a former contestant on the popular reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, has once again stirred up controversy. Two weeks after his abrupt departure from the stunts-based series, Riaz took to social media and live performances to make veiled criticisms aimed at the show’s producers. This has reignited discussions about his contentious exit and the circumstances surrounding it.
For those unfamiliar, Riaz’s time on Khatron Ke Khiladi was brief but filled with drama. Early in the show, he found himself in multiple clashes with host Rohit Shetty and fellow contestants. The tension escalated when Riaz struggled with a particular task and, in a fit of frustration, challenged the show’s producers, denouncing the task as unmanageable. His outbursts included boasting about his financial success and labeling the other contestants as “losers,” which led to a heated confrontation with Shetty and fellow participant Abhishek Kumar. The situation ultimately culminated in Riaz being expelled from the show.
The latest development in this saga surfaced through a viral video clip. During a live performance, Asim Riaz indirectly criticized the show’s producers, stating, “They say someone is ruling the internet… They only showed my reaction, they don’t show action… They chop the clips, and they show my action, but it’s okay.” Although Riaz did not explicitly name the show or its producers, the timing and context strongly suggest that his comments were directed at Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 and its team.
This marks the first time Riaz has publicly addressed his departure from the show, and his remarks indicate that he feels misrepresented by how his time on the show was portrayed. According to Riaz, the producers focused solely on his reactions and conflicts, neglecting to present his side of the story.
In addition to his public remarks, Riaz has previously claimed that he was being exploited for his popularity. He asserted that his earnings far exceeded what the show offered him, which he saw as an attempt by the producers to leverage his fame for their benefit.
Riaz’s backlash and subsequent comments have only fueled ongoing debates about the behind-the-scenes dynamics of reality television. While Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 continues its run, Riaz’s critique adds a new layer to the conversation about ethics and participant treatment in reality TV.
