Bigg Boss 17 contestant Abhishek Kumar has been evicted from the show after he slapped fellow contestant Samarth Jurel.

In an earlier episode, Samarth Jurel made fun of Abhishek's mental health.

Abhishek's ex-girlfriend Isha, who is currently dating Samarth, was also seen mocking him during the episode.

In the heat of the moment, Abhishek slapped Samarth, breaking the show's rule against physical violence.

Abhishek had stated that he has claustrophobia, which became a topic of discussion in the house.

Isha’s mother slammed Abhishek on social media. She posted a story saying that Abhishek has always disrespected her daughter, and that this calls for legal action.

However, Abhishek's father has requested host Salman Khan that his son should be given another chance and brought back.
