Pratik Sehajpal gets support from Umar Riaz and other TV celebs after Kashika Kapoor controversy at a press conference

Pratik Sehajpal, who is known as the chocolate boy of Bigg Boss 15, recently got upset after his co-star from an upcoming music video, Kashika Kapoor began to clear the air about the controversies surrounding the two of them. What ensued was something the audience didn't expect...

At the press conference, Kashika said, "There are a lot of controversies going on between the two of us. I just wanted to say it was a publicity stunt." Pratik's jaw drops at this and he asks Kashika to say nothing more than that. However, she tells him she is doing it for the label.

Unhappy with Kashika's statement, Pratik gets up to leave but the makers stop him and manage to pacify him. Pratik also tells the press that they can take their bytes separately.

Clearly left upset with the turn of events, Pratik tweeted, "Bhai main kya bolun. I'm a hardworking man who believes In lifting people up. Kar do mujhe overshadow Meri qismat aur mehnat ka haqdaar toh main hi rahunga na!" After fans started slamming Kashika, he wrote, "Guys please remember WE BELIEVE IN LIFTING OTHERS UP. Please thank you for all the love and support but hum #PratikFam hai and we have to remember that. Only love and only love." (Photo: Instagram)

Only upwards from here ♥️ Teri kismat da likheya wali baat toh aapko pata hi hai :) Chal see you in a bit and we’ll have a CRAYZAY day!" (Photo: Instagram)

Nikki rooted for Pratik and wrote, "He comes with no wrapping, only charming bows. He is who He is, from his head to his toes. He tends to get loud when speaking his mind. He is on point, always there for every kind. I vouch for @realsehajpal do you? ❤️#PratikSehajpal." (Photo: Instagram)

Former Bigg Boss contestant VJ Andy had the nicest things to say. He wrote, "We know who @realsehajpal & know he would never do anything for Publicity he has a dedicated organic fan following, doesn't need cheap tactics unlike some whatever her name is. Best way to answer is to ignore her completely. #PratikFam #PratikSehajpaI." (Photo: Instagram)
