Ever since Salman Khan‘s Bigg Boss OTT 2 dropped on JioCinema earlier this month, netizens have got their hands on more content to diss and discuss on social media. The latest uproar is caused by Akanksha Puri and Jad Hadid’s 30-second kiss on the last episode of the reality web show.

On the show, the participants are given tasks on a daily basis. On Thursday, Avinash Sachdev said that he would want to see his fellow participants Jad and Akanksha kiss in the task. To complete this “dare” by Avinash, Jad and Akanksha lock lips for around thirty seconds and now a video of this segment from yesterday’s episode has surfaced on social media and is going viral on the internet. In the video, Jad and Akansha are seen kissing each other and other participants in the Bigg Boss OTT 2 household were seen cheering for the two of them. However, Pooja Bhatt seemed a bit distressed and asked them to stop and end the task.

Watch the video here:

While the Bigg Boss OTT 2 housemates shrugged the task as “one of”, the steamy kiss has caused quite an uproar on social media. A section of viewers called the reality show “TRP hungry.”

Some also called Avinash Sachdev “cheap” for making Jad and Akanksha kiss each other before knowing if the two were comfortable doing it in the first place.

Netizens also called out Salman Khan over this task, because before the show started, Salman, while speaking to the media, had said that he hoped that the show’s second season is not too “uncensored and unfiltered”.

After Jad and Akanksha kissed, Cyrus nd Abhishek were seen teasing Jad. However, in response, the Lebanese model called Akanksha a “bad kisser”, and told her, “To be honest, I really wanted to kiss you, you have great lips.”

Bigg Boss OTT 2 streams on JioCinema. The other contestants of the show are Bebika Dhurve, Jiya Shankar, Falaq Naazz, Cyrus Broacha, Manisha Rani, Abhishek Malhan, and Pooja Bhatt. Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s estranged wife Aaliya Siddiqui was voted out from the show recently and Bigg Boss 16 fame, Tajikistan singer and internet sensation Abdu Rozik will soon join the show.
