37-year-old star Jad Hadid has been making headlines in the past few weeks during his time on Bigg Boss OTT 2. He faced criticism from Salman Khan and actor-filmmaker Pooja Bhatt for a lip-lock incident with ex-contestant Akanksha Puri.
Inside the Bigg Boss house, as the drama and controversies continue to unfold since its airing on 17 June, the contestants and audiences are gradually learning about the strengths and weaknesses of the housemates. While some try to hide their less appealing aspects, Jad Hadid stands out for his openness. The Lebanese model-actor recently had a heart-to-heart conversation with Bebika Dhurve, expressing his struggle with the Hindi language and how it impacts his participation in conversations. Jad revealed feeling left out when others switch to Hindi, making it challenging for him to keep up. Despite his efforts to fit in, he feels drained and distant from the group, acknowledging that the show is not his territory and that an Indian contestant will eventually emerge as the winner.
Jad Hadid has been involved in other controversies too. He caught attention for a lip-lock with Akanksha Puri, and Salman Khan reprimanded him for this action. Furthermore, actor-filmmaker Pooja Bhatt criticized him for making others uncomfortable with his closeness. Additionally, his friendship with Jiya Shankar took a hit when Jiya chose Avinash Sacdev over him during a task, leading to accusations of ‘diplomatic gameplay.’
As the competition intensifies, with several contestants in the danger zone, viewers await the next eviction with keen interest.
Bigg Boss OTT 2 can be watched on Jio Cinema and Voot.
