Bigg Boss 20 evicted contestant Aasif Khan has defended Love Gill and Scout OP's equation, saying he never sensed anything beyond a brother-sister bond. He also reacted to Kashvi Hiranandani's confrontation with the duo and shared how he would handle a similar situation involving his wife.

The much-discussed equation between Bigg Boss 20 contestants Love Gill and Scout OP has become one of the talking points of the season. While the two have repeatedly maintained that they share a brother-sister bond, their growing closeness inside the house, including their physical proximity and affectionate moments, has raised eyebrows among viewers. The controversy intensified after Scout OP was seen writing on the grass inside the Bigg Boss house that he was developing feelings for Love and that he was missing his girlfriend, Kashvi Hiranandani, a little less since entering the show. The situation took another turn when Kashvi entered the Weekend Ka Vaar episode recently and confronted Scout and Love over their behaviour, questioning the nature of their equation and expressing her displeasure.

Now, in an exclusive conversation with The Free Press Journal, Bigg Boss 20 contestant Aasif Khan, who has recently been evicted from the show, reacted to the controversy. While Aasif admitted that he was unaware of the entire grass-writing incident, he maintained that he never sensed anything beyond a brother-sister relationship between Love and Scout during his time inside the house. He also shared his perspective on how he would have handled a similar situation involving his wife, Zeba Khan.

Reacting to the episode where Scout was seen writing about developing feelings for Love and missing his girlfriend Kashvi a little less, Aasif said that he was not aware of the incident and would have to watch the episode to understand what had transpired. He said, “When Kashvi said, ‘How can you compare me with Love?’, I asked Scout, ‘Did you actually compare them?’ He told me that he had only said that the comfort he used to experience outside the house was something he was also experiencing with Love inside the house.”

Aasif went on to defend Love and Scout’s equation, saying that during the two months he spent inside the house, he genuinely never felt that there was anything romantic between the two. He said, “I don’t know about this incident. I will watch it now and find out what exactly happened. But even after watching them for two months, I never felt, from any angle, that there was anything between them beyond a brother-sister relationship. I genuinely never felt that way. I didn’t feel that way about myself either, because I shared the same equation with Love. So, their equation was also the same. It was like the kind of relationship a brother and sister share."
