So we all saw Ajaz Khan‘s grand exit last night that I already told you about. He got into a fight with Ali Quli Mirza and what started off as what seemed to be “friendly banter”, escalated rather quickly to the extent of Ajaz physically hitting Ali!

Bigg Boss showed him the door because (apparently) there’s no room for violence in the Bigg Boss house! (I’m looking at you Arman Kohli.) It remains a mystery then, why Puneet Issar was brought back in after hitting Arya Babbar, but no point going down that road now, is there? A source from the channel said:

Bigg Boss announced that Ajaz had been invited to be a part of Bigg Boss Halla Bol as a Challenger owing to his intensely entertaining stint during his own season of the show. However, Bigg Boss further elaborated, ever since Ajaz has returned to the show, he has been far from entertaining and has, in fact, become a cause for grievance not only to the contestants but also to the show. Ajaz’s latest act of violence was the last straw because he is also aware that it is in violation of the rules of the show.

Ajaz exited the house only yesterday, but the rumours of who’s going to replace him have started already. One of the top names doing the rounds for potentially being brought into the show now that Ajaz is gone was Imam Siddique. I caught up with him and asked him if the rumours about him replacing Ajaz were true and here’s what he had to say:

Beneath my dignity to replace anyone. I’m irreplaceable.

Point taken. But will we be seeing him on Bigg Boss anytime soon?

Not in the immediate future. I do not subscribe to violence and I’m very aware of my global branding. Besides, my first impression was the best. Nothing compares!

He further added:

My sincere and humble apologies if I disappointed anyone anywhere from Alaska in the North to Auckland N’Zealand in the South… Beijing in the East to Buenos Aires & Bogota in the West for not appearing on the show this season. My brand is a hit and I will not associate myself with any flop show. Time Out!

There you have it! Right from the horse’s mouth. Fans will surely miss Imam this time because if Twitter is anything to go by, his was one of the most anticipated Wild Card entries of this season!

Now with Imam out of the picture, do you think the makers of Bigg Boss will be getting a new Challenger?
