Rohit Shetty schools ScoutOP, Love Gill over blanket massage
The Story in Brief
Filmmaker Rohit Shetty, hosting Bigg Boss 20 Weekend Ka Vaar in Salman Khan's absence, has questioned contestants ScoutOP and Lovepreet Gill about their physical closeness inside the house. In a promo released on 24 October, Shetty told Gill that massages from ScoutOP, including on her calves and neck, 'do not look good' on screen.
Gill said she considers ScoutOP a brother. ScoutOP defended himself by saying he also massages fellow contestant Mahhi Vij. Shetty warned that their interactions create an unfavourable impression among viewers. Aamrapali Dubey had earlier raised similar concerns, and reports suggest ScoutOP's girlfriend Kaashvi Hiranandani may appear in an upcoming episode.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The three outlets report the same promo identically. Times Now, India TV and Yes Punjab all lead with Shetty's questioning and the massage under a blanket, attributing to him the line 'it is not looking good'. None omits the context of Salman Khan's absence or ScoutOP's defence involving Mahhi Vij. The coverage is uniform straight reporting: each outlet re-states the promo conversation, adds the Gill-as-sister remark, and notes Aamrapali Dubey's prior warning or the possibility of ScoutOP's girlfriend entering the house. No editorial slant or omission tilts the framing. The single watch item across sources is whether Kaashvi Hiranandani appears in the weekend episode to discuss ScoutOP's closeness with Gill.
