Tamboli Supports Arbaaz Amidst ‘Rise and Fall’ Controversy, Cites Protective Nature

Arbaaz Patel’s actions on ‘Rise and Fall’ have drawn criticism, prompting his girlfriend, Nikki Tamboli, to offer her support. Tamboli entered the house to be with Arbaaz, and shared a video on Instagram, where she consoles him. She expressed that his family is proud of him and that she believes in him. She continued by saying that he is the best at what he does, and nobody can beat him. She then added that he should be proud of his actions. She wrote in the caption, “Some partners lift trophies, the best ones lift you — in every game and every moment having someone who supports you behind your back and showers love is rare.” The controversy stems from Arbaaz’s remarks to Dhanashree about her interactions with other male contestants, specifically concerning hugging. Tamboli explained that Arbaaz’s actions were a result of his reserved nature and protective instincts. She stated that he was “simply trying to look out for her,” and wanted people to understand him better.
