In a shocking turn of events, Bigg Boss season 7 runner-up, Amardeep, faced a brutal attack by alleged fans of the winner, Pallavi Prashanth. The incident unfolded on Sunday midnight outside Annapurna Studios, where Amardeep, along with his family, became the target of a violent mob.
The attackers, claiming to be Pallavi Prashanth’s fans, had previously issued warnings on various YouTube channels about their intentions to confront Amardeep. The situation escalated when Amardeep’s car was vandalized, leaving him and his family in a state of terror.
Amardeep, who remained inside the car during the attack, endured a harrowing half-hour as the assailants relentlessly pursued them. The sheer brutality exhibited by the mob raises questions about the limits of fandom, veering into realms of sadism, psychoism, and even satanism.
The assailants, seemingly angered by Amardeep’s behavior in the Bigg Boss house, particularly his confrontations with winner Pallavi Prashanth, unleashed their fury upon his family and property. The attack involved the destruction of the car, with rioters dancing on top of it and pelting stones and sticks from an adjacent bus.
Amardeep’s mother, wife Teja, friend Naresh Lolla, and the driver were all in the car during the assault, and they suffered injuries as a result. Despite pleas from Amardeep’s mother for the attackers to desist, the violence persisted, leaving the car completely destroyed.
The incident occurred following the Bigg Boss finale episode, where Pallavi Prashanth emerged as the winner and Amardeep as the runner-up. Thousands of people gathered outside Annapurna Studios, anticipating the exit of the contestants. The attackers, who had openly declared their intention to harm Amardeep, executed their plan with alarming ferocity.
The police, despite attempting to control the situation with batons, were overwhelmed by the sheer number of people present. The attack on Amardeep raises crucial questions about the boundaries of fan behavior and the consequences of allowing such violent tendencies to go unchecked.
It is essential to note that true fans do not engage in such destructive and harmful actions. The attack on Amardeep goes beyond mere disappointment with the show’s outcome, exposing a dark side of fandom that warrants careful examination and intervention. The reasons behind the attack remain rooted in the alleged belittlement of winner Prashanth within the Bigg Boss house, highlighting the toxic nature of some fan communities.
