Bigg Boss 20 Contestant ScoutOP Admits Growing Feelings for Housemate Despite Having Girlfriend Outside

Contestant ScoutOP has admitted to developing feelings for fellow housemate Love inside the Bigg Boss 20 house, despite previously calling her his sister and having a girlfriend outside the show.

House Discussions

In a recent episode, ScoutOP and Yung discussed how their attention toward their girlfriends outside the house had decreased. To avoid certain words, the two wrote their thoughts on the grass while Bigg Boss provided subtitles for viewers. During the chat, ScoutOP admitted he feels jealous when Kushal Tanwar, also known as Gullu, flirts with Love. He also confessed that he is afraid of his girlfriend, Kaashvi Saxena, and worried that his feelings for Love are growing stronger than his feelings for Kaashvi. Yung acknowledged that his own feelings for Love had grown stronger and stated he never considered her a sister. Viewers have previously questioned the closeness between ScoutOP and Love, pointing to moments when he carried her on his back and hugged her while she cried.

Social Media Reaction

The episode clip spread quickly on social media, leading viewers to criticise ScoutOP for developing romantic feelings while in an outside relationship. One viewer commented that it was awful and expressed sadness for his girlfriend, while another called it cheap. ScoutOP's girlfriend, Kaashvi Hiranandani, works as a streamer and gaming creator at Revenant XSpark.

House Updates

In other house developments, Rhiti Tiwari was recently eliminated from Bigg Boss 20, while Salman Khan revealed during Weekend Ka Vaar that Mary Kom received the fewest votes and has one remaining chance to survive. Meanwhile, Uditi Singh took over as the new captain of the house. The series streams on JioHotstar.

Context
