Umar Riaz alleged that his profession was being targeted in the show with an aim to demoralise him. The evicted Bigg Boss 15 contestant also added that nobody else’s profession was targeted like his.
Doctor turned model Umar Riaz has emerged as one of the most popular contestants in Bigg Boss 15. He might have got evicted before the grand finale but he has won the hearts of the audience like no one else from the season. Umar was evicted during the Weekend Ka Vaar after he pushed Pratik Sehajpal during a task and Bigg Boss asked him to wait till the weekend to know the audience’s verdict against him.
Umar Riaz’s eviction from the show has been making headlines. Umar’s fans and several former contestants of the show are questioning the makers’ judgment. And now, days after his eviction, Umar Riaz opened up about how he feels the entire process was unfair.

In an interview with Spotboye, Umar was quoted as saying, “Yes, my profession was targeted on the show. None of the other people’s professions- they were actors, singers, choreographers, never anyone’s profession was targeted like mine. My profession was targeted to demoralize me, but it never helped. I did what I wanted to do, and I was determined and motivated to do what I want.”
Asim, who was the first runner-up in the 13th season of the show, echoed similar thoughts. Asim and Umar find it hard to digest that he was shown the door despite his popularity.
Umar added, “I am feeling very disappointed. I got to know that votes were in my favor, and still I was evicted,d, so I felt really bad. I gave my 100% to the show. So, I think my eviction was unfair.”
He added that he wanted to see himself with host Salman Khan on the grand finale stage but that couldn’t happen. He said he’s unbelievably grateful to the audience for giving him so much love.

“I feel blessed to have people who supported me in such large numbers on social media. The eviction was certainly unfair. It was disappointing to come so close to the finale and get evicted like this. But the love and appreciation I’ve got from people, I am content with it. Obviously, in my dreams, I always visualised standing with Salman Khan sir on stage and he held my hand. Winning or losing was secondary, but I just wanted to be on that stage with Salman sir holding my hand. It was my dream to be on the finale, so that disappointment is there. But I am content with the love I’ve got from people,” he said. Also Read: Why Salman Khan Wanted SLB To Change The Ending Of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam?
