The 27-year old went on to add, “However, after a heated altercation, he approached me and offered an apology, which led me to forgive him. I understand that in this house, you can't simply ignore someone because you're constantly faced with their presence, so forgiving and forgetting becomes necessary. I must say, Abhishek isn't a bad person at heart; he has a good nature. However, it's quite apparent that he's willing to do just about anything for the sake of getting more attention and screen time.” ALSO READ: Bigg Boss 17: Abhishek Kumar Was A Physically Violent Boyfriend And He Threatened To Throw Isha Malviya Out Of A Moving Car?
