Bigg Boss 20: The Bigg Boss 20 house has witnessed its first major social media clash outside the screen. Esports star Tanmay Singh, popularly known as ScoutOp, has landed in a fresh controversy after his team publicly called out co-contestant Kushal Tanwar, aka Gullu.
Following a high-stakes captaincy task, ScoutOp's team accused Gullu of "self-victimising" himself and using a "betrayed by a friend" narrative for audience sympathy.

ScoutOp's representatives alleged that Gullu mocked the gamer for his profession before attempting to play the victim card.

Taking another apparent dig at Gullu's emotional reaction, the statement questioned why he refused to acknowledge that he wasn't physically harmed during the competitive task.
"But ofc, if we all just accept it, then how will he make a sad Instagram edit about being betrayed by a friend? Self-victimisation at its finest," the statement read.
ScoutOp’s team further claimed that Gullu instigated other contestants to break another housemate’s popcorn bucket, but "cried" when ScoutOp applied the same strategy to him. They concluded: "Start using your brains. No gang leader will help with strategies and infusing passion here."
Gullu’s Team Responds
The statement followed a post from Gullu’s team, who initially sparked the debate by posting: "Lol, this is so true Tasks really bring out the true colours of people, and today’s task is the perfect example. The same people who were sitting with Gullu, having fun with him, are now trying to play against him. Hypocrisy at its finest."
