Ratheesh Kumar’s eviction from the sixth season of Bigg Boss Malayalam was a moment of self-reflection and apology for the comedian. The unexpected turn of events unfolded during the elimination task, leading to Ratheesh’s departure from the show. Following his eviction, Ratheesh expressed regret for his actions, particularly for not controlling his language, which he acknowledged as a misuse of the platform provided by the show1.
The controversy that led to his eviction stemmed from a gay insinuation directed towards fellow contestant Suresh Menon, which sparked discussions and speculations about Ratheesh’s continuation in the house. His behavior was criticized for creating unnecessary disputes and provoking other contestants, which quickly built a negative image among the audience.
Ratheesh’s journey in the Bigg Boss house was notable from the start, as he was one of the few contestants announced by the show’s team even before the premiere. Despite this initial advantage, his stay was cut short. In a candid conversation with the host Mohanlal after his eviction, Ratheesh admitted that he had not expected to be eliminated so early and reflected on the importance of being cautious with one’s words.
His eviction has sparked active discussions on social media, with some viewers expressing disappointment over his early departure and others deeming it inevitable due to his conduct. The incident serves as a reminder of the impact words can have and the responsibilities that come with being in the public eye3.
