Controversies
- Once Ekta Kapoor said that Parth Samthaan and Vikas Gupta were in a relationship. In an interview, she said that “Vikas and Parth were close to each other and were in a relationship. Parth has accused Vikas of touching him inappropriately on December 7, 2013, and 20 days later, he was with Vikas holidaying in Bangkok! I know because I was also there to bring in the New Year. I have seen several videos of him professing his love for Vikas. The reason Parth has become bitter towards Vikas who gave him a break in his TV show is that the relationship came to an end. But he seems to have forgotten that he has a career thanks to Vikas, who groomed him and presented him. They were together for over three years. It’s very convenient to turn around and accuse your lover of being a molester/rapist. You see starlets doing it all the time. Now male actors seem to have started using this tactic as well.” But, later Parth denied this and said that everyone knew he was in a relationship with a girl.
- Vikas Gupta’s ex-boyfriend, Parth Samthan, accused Vikas of molesting him. However, a few days later they were both seen partying together in Goa.
- In January 2021, Vikas Khoker, the winner of ‘Roadies 9,’ claimed that after he won ‘Roadies 9,’ Vikas Gupta had asked him to get sexually involved with him. The Roadies 9 winner also claimed that Mr. Gupta even asked him to come to his home to give him a massage and demanded objectionable pictures.
