Jad Hadid Faces Backlash For Crossing Boundaries On Bigg Boss OTT 2: During a recent episode of 'Bigg Boss OTT 2', Jad Hadid requested a French kiss from Manisha Rani. Manisha, who hails from a different cultural background, responded by promising to fulfil his request during the season finale.

Throughout the show, Manisha and Jad have playfully teased and flirted with each other. This particular incident took place when Manisha dressed up and approached Jad who was lying on the bed with Cyrus Broacha.

Manisha playfully remarked, "You were teasing me then, now I am all decked up. I am here for you to tease me." Cyrus jokingly mentioned that she had put on lipstick for Jad. In response, Jad suggested removing the lipstick and gestured for a hug, while the onlookers cheered them on.

Manisha playfully mentioned that her kisses are priced at Rs 5 lakh each, but she would offer them to Jad for free. Jad, intrigued, sat down and expressed his interest in experiencing her kisses. As the excitement grew and everyone encouraged Manisha to kiss Jad, she clarified, "It is a kiss, it is not normal in India. Listen, I am okay with a kiss on the forehead but nothing more than that." Jad appeared disappointed, and Cyrus remarked that a forehead kiss wasn't sufficient after investing ten days in her.

Manisha explained that in her home state of Bihar, kissing on the forehead carries significant meaning and is reserved for lovers. However, Jad interrupted her, highlighting the cultural differences between them. He stated, "We believe in the French kiss. That's how you connect with a person's soul."

Manisha then joked, "Do you wish that I may never return to Bihar and my parents kick me out of their house? Listen babu, I am ready for the French kiss but after this show, (promise me that) you will take me to Dubai with you. If you are ready then I am also okay."

Jad inquired, "Does it mean you have to marry the person you kiss?" After a lengthy conversation, Manisha gently touched his face while he closed his eyes in anticipation. However, she quickly exclaimed, "That's enough!" They embraced each other, and Jad questioned if it was acceptable as well. Manisha informed him that he could kiss her on the forehead, arms, or hands instead.

In another instance, Jad was seen questioning Akanksha Puri about the colour of her undergarments. He was also seen attempting to get closer to Jiya Shankar in a playful manner. However, social media was not quite happy with his behaviour. One Twitter user wrote, "Jad> tharki+Playboy+creep+harami+harassing women on national TV. #BiggBossOTT #BiggBossOTT2 do something."

Another one tweeted, "Jad tharki is literally handsy with every girl in the house. He is just so unfazed & keeps touching any and every girl anywhere he wants and it's not like it's once in a blue moon thing. Every time I open the live, he is just trying to be handsy with someone #BiggBossOTT2onJioCinema."

One fan of 'Bigg Boss' even questioned why the girls were giving so much attention to Jad, referring to him as a "tharki" (lecherous) person. They mentioned that even Manisha seemed to be getting close to him excessively.
