Bigg Boss Kannada 12: Bad news for Kiccha Sudeep fans, complaint filed against him over…

Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12 is facing controversy after a complaint accused host Kiccha Sudeep and two contestants of caste-based discrimination and mistreatment of women.

A fresh controversy has hit the Kannada reality TV scene. The popular show Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12, hosted by veteran actor Kiccha Sudeep, is now under police and Women’s Commission scrutiny after a formal complaint was lodged accusing him and two contestants of caste‑based discrimination and humiliation of women. The complaint was filed by social activist Sandhya Pavithra N on 21 November 2025.

What has happened?

On 21 November 2025, social activist Sandhya Pavithra N filed a detailed complaint with the Karnataka State Women’s Commission. She named Kiccha Sudeep, the anchor of Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12, and two current contestants, Ashwini Gowda and Rashika. The complaint outlines three major accusations: caste‑based discrimination, verbal abuse, and physical assault inside the house. Sandhya claimed the show promoted disrespect toward women and reinforced harmful stereotypes, violating constitutional rights to dignity and equality.

Allegations against Kiccha Sudeep

According to the petition, Sudeep made “insulting and aggressive” remarks toward contestant Rakshita during an episode. The activist said his comments were not just harsh but set a tone that encouraged disrespectful behaviour toward women on national television. Though Sudeep’s segment, often called a “panchayat”, is meant to resolve conflicts, the complaint argues he failed to curb offensive language and instead amplified it.

The Karnataka State Women’s Commission confirmed receipt of the complaint and is expected to seek clarification from the production house and the channel. Women’s rights groups and Dalit organisations have demanded a thorough investigation, suspension of the accused contestants, and stricter content guidelines for reality shows.

As of now, Kiccha Sudeep, the production team, and the channel have not issued an official statement. Earlier in the season, the show faced a separate issue when the Karnataka Pollution Control Board halted filming for environmental violations, but operations resumed after intervention from the Deputy Chief Minister.
