Ever since its inception, the popular TV show Bigg Boss Season 16 has managed to remain in the headlines.

Abdu’s management company stated, “The IFCM team feel saddened and shocked that their client Abdu Rozik is being subjected to such inappropriate discriminatory behaviour in the Bigg Boss House. It is morally unfitting to employ manipulative tactics and play with an innocent person's emotions for one's own malicious benefit, especially someone who doesn't fully comprehend the rationale behind a certain activity and take undue advantage of their simplicity and kindness.”

Further, the statement read, “We are deeply disheartened with the recent incident showcased on national television. It's a breach of Abdu's trust and integrity to write words on his back without explaining to him the exact full meaning of it. We condemn such non-inclusive and non-compassionate behaviour and we are grateful that we enjoy the unparalleled support of the audiences and the fans. Abdu is in a foreign country and we expected a humane reception from the contestants.”

“He is trying to establish a career for himself in India and not become a target of unsolicited humour and mockery on national television. It is indeed questionable that nobody has bothered to apologize to him or give him an explanation thus far but instead everyone has chosen to participate in this bullying and public ridicule,” read another excerpt of the statement.

Concluding their statement, the agency said, “We hope that the makers of the reality show express some discerning precaution whilst publicising such morally incorrect footage and take legitimate action against those responsible for these insensitive and socially irresponsible acts.”

For the unversed, on the occasion of Nimrit Ahluwalia’s birthday, Sajid Khan and Sumbul Touqeer played a prank on Abdu and wrote “I Love Tatti” on his back.
