Mooruru had accused Venkat's non-involvement in the house tasks a day before Sudeep's weekend episode.[2] While answering Sudeep's question on the weekend episode, he started to speak about Venkat's claim about the 'Sene' which enraged Venkat to manhandle Mooruru.[3] He continued to slap Ravi until he was dragged away by other housemates causing Ravi to bleed. The act caused Bigg Boss Kannada's first ever Elimination (direct eviction)[4] for Venkat as Sudeep slammed his actions and directed him out of the house.[5] He was escorted out of the house by bouncers.[6] Post eviction, he made statements against Ravi, show host Sudeep,[7] and other housemates including Rehman and Chandan. Sudeep's fans revolted against this and Venkat was made to apologize for his statements against Sudeep on live TV.[8] The act eventually led to Venkat's arrest.[9][10][11] After the season concluded, Venkat and Mooruru have been on good terms.
