Things got steamy in the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house after Dubai-based model Jad Hadid and actress Akanksha Puri exchanged a kiss as part of a dare in the team challenge.

Jad and fellow contestant Akanksha locked lips on the Salman Khan-hosted reality show for a dare given by actor Avinash Sachdev. Jad was challenged to kiss Akanksha to free her from BB jail and he accepted it. Akanksha was in jail for her ‘fake behaviour’ on the show.

This comes close on the heels of a controversy that was sparked last week after Jad tried to get close to Akanksha, making her feel uncomfortable and prompting her to ask him to not touch her.

Akanksha and Jad’s brewing friendship had caught the attention of the BB inmates as well as the viewers. Last week, Jad had opened up to Akanksha about missing his daughter. They also hit the gym together on many occasions. When Akanksha was in jail last week, Jad was often spotted near her. He even opined that it was unfair she was in jail.
