Top 5 Highlights of Bigg Boss OTT Premiere Night
1. Pratik Sehajpal, who has participated in a few reality shows in the past, came across as an overconfident person to the male contestants. Calling himself 'Karma' and 'God', Pratik left host Karan shocked by reciting a poem. After his entry on the stage, he seemed to be irked with all the other contestants of the show. He picked up a fight with Zeeshan Khan a.k.a the 'Bathrobe Boy'. Even with the female contestants, apart from Akshara, Pratik simply couldn't keep himself away from arguments.
2. Social media influencer and actress Urfi Javed added a punch of fun to the event. She went on to say that Pratik was her co-star's former boyfriend. He revealed that the co-star is Pavitra Punia. When host Karan asked him about the reason behind their breakup, Pratik said Pavitra was very possessive and they had a toxic relationship. He further said that he tried to hurt himself. He called Pavitra aggressive.
3. Pratik seemed to be disappointed with the female contestants for not choosing him as their partner. Later, Akshara selected him and it seems he was more comfortable interacting with her.

5. The show started off on a twisted note for many. Bigg Boss announced that the female contestants won't be getting their entire luggage. Their male connections will help them get personal belongings. On the other hand, Pratik and Divya got into an argument. The actress said she doesn't need the show and he needs it. Both of them lost their cool and ended up abusing each other.
