Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

Sohail Khan has denied using weight-loss drugs like Ozempic after his rapid weight loss on the reality show 'Alliance' sparked concern online. In an interview, the actor said his health issues began soon after entering the show as a wild card contestant. He told Hindustan Times that he felt claustrophobic in the first few days and also suffered a stomach bug in the first week. "The love and concern from contestants made me stay for five weeks, though I was unwell in the first itself," Khan said. He added that he had to control his diet to continue participating in challenges. "So no Ozempic, no fat burners, I'm only taking loads of love and affection." The actor's weight loss was noticed at the show's wrap-up party, with Times Now reporting that fans worried about his health.
