Adnaan Shaikh boldly responded to Anil Kapoor's question as he accused Lovekesh Kataria of faking friendship with Vishal Pandey. The wild card entrant stated that Lovekesh is copying someone else's game, hinting at the latter's close friend and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner, Elvish Yadav. Soon after the promo video of Adnaan being announced as a wild card entrant on the show, another clip was uploaded by the makers on Instagram that set the internet on fire.
In the clip, we can see Adnaan Shaikh making the same remarks again before his entry into the Bigg Boss house. However, the big difference this time was that all the contestants were watching him while he introduced himself and accused Lovekesh Kataria of faking his friendship with Vishal Pandey. Later in the clip, we saw Adnaan entering into the house, and as he shook hands with Lovekesh, the latter told him that what he said was wrong. The clip ended with a cliffhanger, leaving audiences excited about Adnaan and Lovekesh's interaction inside the Bigg Boss house.
The first wild card entrant of the controversial show, Bigg Boss OTT 3, Adnaan Shaikh is a renowned fitness model, dancer, and actor, who boasts a massive fan following of 11.4 million followers. Adnaan is quite famous on social media and is renowned for collaborating with Bollywood stars and fellow influencers. From working with Shilpa Shetty Kundra to posting videos with Mr Faisu, Adnaan is extremely popular on Instagram. Apart from social media, he reportedly earns from dance workshops and brand collaborations with fitness-related companies. According to multiple reports, Adnaan was born into a middle-class family on August 7, 1996. The 27-year-old influencer completed his schooling at Saint Andrew's High School and graduated from Rizvi College of Arts Science and Commerce.
Adnaan Shaikh shares a close bond with popular social media star, Mr Faisu, who has 32.4 million followers on Instagram. Time and again, we have seen them appearing in each other's videos. For the uninitiated, Adnaan has an old rivalry with popular YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner, Elvish Yadav. Time and again, we have seen them passing controversial remarks at each other in their roast videos.
However, things took a heated turn when Adnaan Shaikh dropped a video on social media in which he shared that he wished that Salman Khan had kicked Elvish Yadav out of the show. Adnaan received a lot of backlash from Elvish's massive fanbase and faced trolling after Elvish walked out of the house with the Bigg Boss trophy. As of now, while Lovekesh Kataria belongs to Elvish Yadav's group, Adnan is representing Mr Faisu's community, and it is clear that the makers of Bigg Boss are trying to bring the old rivalry up front.

Elvish also confirmed that he has an old rivalry with Adnaan and added that things are going to heat up from now on inside the Bigg Boss house.
Lovekesh Kataria is currently on everyone's radar, from Adnaan Shaikh to Naezy, questioning his loyalty towards Vishal Pandey. He is indeed facing attacks from all corners. Well, at this unfortunate time, his friend, Vishal took a stand for him and clearly told everyone that he fully believed in Lovekesh. In the recent episodes of Bigg Boss OTT 3, Naezy asked Vishal whether Lovekesh is faithful towards him. In response to the question, Vishal told Naezy that he had full faith in Lovekesh.
