Asim Riaz's comment:
Asim Riaz was seen in conversation with Paras Chhabra and Vishal Aditya Singh. The three were talking about razors. Asim then told Vikas Gupta that there are aloe vera razors available as well. He then smirked at his comment, which made it seem like he was passing comment at Vikas' sexuality.
After this scene, Vikas Gupta called Asim Riaz and lectured him about the same. Vikas looked completely annoyed and asked him to think before he speaks. Asim denied the whole thing completely and changed the topic. Later in the episode, Paras, Shehnaaz, and Vishal could be seen making fun of the same thing.
Fans enraged
Fans took to Twitter to show their rage and disdain against this homophobic behaviour of Asim. Fans are annoyed that this sort of behaviour is tolerated easily by Bigg Boss. Many also talked about how this was unexpected of Asim Riaz.
I don’t know what people are doing. Stop abusing #VikasGupta for the aloevera incident. Your comments are homophobic and disgusting. #asimRiaz DID taunt there and maybe he didn’t mean it that way but Vikas has dealt with comments like that all the while and if he felt it (cntd)

Stop over using your bloody hand moments and start using little bit of your mind you fool!#VikasGupta #VikasInBB13 #BB13 #BiggBoss13
Asim Riaz was heavily advised by the audience to be careful of what he says in the Bigg Boss house. A homophobic comment on the part of Asim could bring a lot of damage to his image. The upcoming episodes will show how the attitude of the house will change as mastermind Vikas is called back for this season.
