He abused me when we were shooting a scene with 10 other people. It was a big dramatic scene and in between, he started teasing me and talking shit to me.” ALSO READ: Bigg Boss: Sidharth Shukla Not The First To Be KICKED Out; Other Contestants Have Been Shown The Door Too
He also mentioned that everyone on set was begging Sidharth to stop, but he didn’t. Narrating the incident, Kunal Verma said, “He kept hitting me with the script, splashing water on my pants, and then he pulled me away from the set and said, ‘Tu aaj mere saath daaru pee’. I kept repeating, ‘No, I don't want to come’. After doing all the crazy stuff he does when he is on a trip, he was trying to control the situation by inviting me to hang out with him. When I refused, he became wild.”
Kunal Verma further said that he pleaded with the Supervising Producer to wrap up his character’s scenes because he refused to shoot a single scene with that ‘maniac.’ Well, things only turned uglier after that and Kunal Verma concluded by saying, “Sidharth Shukla needs to go to rehab. And I feel bad for the people who will be in rehab with him. Ye pagal pehalwan hai.”
