The Bigg Boss 17 house was plunged into astonishment as Abhishek Kumar unexpectedly slapped Samarth Jurel, sparking widespread attention. Following the incident, Abhishek faced elimination from the controversial reality show. However, a surprising twist unfolded when Salman Khan criticized Samarth and Isha for provoking Abhishek, leading to his reinstatement. In a recent interview, Abhishek Kumar's mother shared her thoughts on the entire incident.


Abhishek's mother expressed that while she acknowledges her son shouldn't have resorted to slapping Samarth, she believes it was a reaction to Samarth's actions. She stated, “Woh haanth Uthana nahi tha, it was a reaction to action. Samarth was putting tissue in Abhishek’s mouth and he slapped. Whatever happened that day with Abhishek was totally wrong and very bad. Everyone knows that he has phobia and you are putting blanket on it, Dum ghoot sakta tha, anything could have happened. Samarth was forcefully putting tissue in his mouth. All this was right? Kahan tak sahi hai, Thappad toh kum hai Woh,” she shared with E-Times.

In response to the controversy, Samarth Jurel's father shared his perspective in a recent conversation with Indian Express, stating, “I feel both Samarth and Abhishek were wrong in that situation, don’t know why both of them got hyper. Abhishek was more worked up and his hand touched Samarth, but it’s okay.”


Nevertheless, he contended that he wouldn't categorize Samarth's actions as 'provocative.' He remarked, “What Samarth did with Abhishek, I will not call that poking or provocation, it was a fight that escalated. It could happen to us also if there was a fight at home.”

When asked about the decision to reintroduce Abhishek Kumar on Bigg Boss 17, Samarth's father commented, “Bringing Abhishek back was Bigg Boss’ decision and I think it is okay.”


Both Abhishek Kumar’s mother and Samarth Jurel’s father recently participated in the family week inside the Bigg Boss 17 house. Joining them were Munawar Faruqui’s sister, Ayesha Khan’s brother, Ankita Lokhande and Vicky Jain’s respective mothers, and Arun Shetty’s wife, who visited their loved ones within the controversial show. Isha Malviya’s father and Mannara Chopra’s sister also made their way into the show.
