The Bigg Boss 20 house, which premiered on September 6, 2026, on Colors TV and JioHotstar with Salman Khan as host, is currently witnessing a significant controversy involving popular gaming creator Tanmay Singh, famously known as ScoutOP, and Punjabi actress Love Gill. Viral video clips from inside the house have led to accusations of inappropriate touching and have ignited a furious debate across social media platforms, drawing sharp criticism from viewers.
ScoutOP and Love Gill’s Bigg Boss 20 Clips Spark Criticism
Several videos circulating online show instances of ScoutOP and Love Gill engaging in physically close interactions, which have been widely condemned by a segment of the audience. One particular viral video captures Scout and Love sitting together on a bed, where he is seen touching her back in a manner that many viewers deemed inappropriate.
Scout and Love Gills Video Sparks Controversy
Another clip shows Scout holding Love’s hand after the lights went off and touching her cheek during a conversation, further fueling speculation about the nature of their relationship. Additionally, old videos showed Scout carrying Love on his back and comforted her with a hug while she was crying, which, in light of other events, have drawn scrutiny.
The controversy escalated following a candid conversation between ScoutOP and fellow housemate Yung DSA. In this discussion, ScoutOP admitted to feeling a sense of possessiveness when Love Gill interacted with another contestant, Kushal ‘Gullu’ Tanwar.
When asked by Yung DSA if his “path was changing,” ScoutOP’s cryptic response of “Nahi pata” (I don’t know) further fueled the romantic speculation. This admission has raised eyebrows, especially since ScoutOP is known to be in a long-term relationship with gaming creator Kaashvi Hiranandani outside the Bigg Boss house.

Fans React, Team Clarifies Amid Relationship Speculation
The viral videos and ScoutOP’s confession have led to a massive uproar among netizens. Many viewers have taken to social media to express their anger and disappointment, with comments labelling the duo as “disgusting” and questioning ScoutOP’s conduct inside the house. One user explicitly stated, “This is disgusting he is touching her bra where are those who were character assassinating Qazi just for lollipop thing this man touching her bra and no one is questioning him”.
Fans React
Adding to the drama, clips of Kaashvi Hiranandani livestreaming the Bigg Boss 20 episode and visibly reacting emotionally to ScoutOP’s statements have also gone viral, garnering significant sympathy from fans.
In response to the mounting criticism, ScoutOP’s management team issued a clarification on October 6, 2026, via his official Instagram handle. The statement argued that only glimpses of a much larger conversation were shown in the episode, and these moments were presented in a way to generate reaction and curiosity. The team maintained that ScoutOP’s bond with Love Gill is purely platonic and akin to a sibling relationship, emphasising that his actual love interest remains outside the Bigg Boss house.
Despite the clarification, the controversy continues to divide viewers, with some defending ScoutOP and blaming the show’s editing for manipulating the narrative, while others remain convinced of a romantic angle.
