Asim took to X (formerly Twitter) to react to the reports suggesting he had been ousted from the show. He wrote,“Paid media ain’t got a spine, just a rate card. They print what they’re told, I move when I decide. Keep shouting ‘kicked out’, I kicked the script and flipped the game. Next headline? Make it count.”
Prior to this, Asim also shared a photo from the set with the caption, “SCRIPTED.”

Asim Riaz responds to Abhinav Shukla
Earlier, he responded to Abhinav Shukla's comments regarding his (Asim's) statements about Rubina on the show through Instagram Stories. Asim clarified that the argument was strictly between the four judges and that Abhinav had no reason to interfere.
He wrote,“Four judges were having a real conversation… who even called you to jump in? Stop poking your nose everywhere trying to play the hero — this isn’t some WhatsApp group drama. People like you only speak up when someone else’s name brings you relevance. This wasn’t your scene, but you forced an entry like you mattered.”
He added,“And stop fishing for sympathy off fake comments from fake IDs. This is the internet — anyone can type anything. Stand tall or stay silent."
Asim also addressed Abhinav's comment suggesting that he uses performance-enhancing substances to maintain his physique. He hit back, saying:
“Now about fitness — only a man who’s never lifted will cry ‘steroids’ when someone shows up built different. I built this body, this name, this attitude, brick by brick, rep by rep. You call it substances, I call it substance. I don’t need sympathy — I need space to dominate. And you? Stay in your lane.”
