Asim started his journey on the show as the “vanilla” boy, flaunting his perfectly chiselled body and rapping skills, before gradually morphing into the angry young lad of “Bigg Boss” with his constant verbal spats with the other housemates.
As he entered the show he created a buzz after getting into a fight with fellow housemate Paras Chhabra. It all started when co-contestant Mahira Sharma ended up calling Asim her “brother”, because both of them hail from Jammu and Kashmir, at the launch of the show in September.
The other male contestants asked Asim not to let Mahira call him “bhai” because then he could romance her in the show. Paras advised him to channel his anger, and in no time, they got into a heated argument, during which Paras said he would slap Asim.
Soon after entering the “Bigg Boss” house, Asim befriended Aarti Singh, Shehnaz Kaur Gill and Sidharth Shukla. The quartet was often seen hanging out together.
The “guy-next-door” Asim was even tagged a “quitter” as he gave up in the initial task themed on a hospital.
