A prank by singer and actor Ali Quli Mirza turned ugly when his Bigg Boss 8 housemate Sonali Raut reprimanded him for inappropriate behaviour.
A source from the show’s production team said that while the model-turned-actress was seen getting cosy on a bed with Upen Patel, Mirza came and sat beside them and touched Sonali on her knee under the blanket with an intention of playing a prank.
But the whole prank backfired. Raut immediately asked Mirza to back off and also warned him that she would slap him if he did it again.
Mirza apologised to Raut, and said he was just “kidding” and that he had no other negative intention.
Later, Patel also warned Mirza not to act in such a way, even if he meant it in humour.
But the Bigg Boss was not willing to forgive the behaviour.
All the housemates were asked to assemble in the living area and Mirza was fired from the captaincy.
He won’t be allowed to position again throughout his stay in this season of the TV show. He has also been nominated directly for next week’s eliminations.
