Sara Arfeen Khan faces backlash for kicking Nyrraa Banerjee in front of paparazzi; Netizens say 'Very disrespectful'

Sara Arfeen Khan, who courted many controversies during her stay in the Bigg Boss 18 house, recently attended an event in Mumbai on April 11, 2025, alongside her former co-contestant Nyrraa Banerjee, Alice Kaushik and others. Sara and Nyrra bonded really well on the reality show. They were recently spotted posing together for the paparazzi at the event, but the moment took a controversial turn as Sara is now facing criticism for allegedly kicking Nyrraa during the appearance.
A video that’s now making the rounds online shows Sara Arfeen Khan posing with her group for the cameras. Nyrraa Banerjee, positioned at the far left with her back to them, appeared unaware that the paparazzi were waiting for her to face forward. In an unexpected move, Sara, standing a little distance away, lightly kicked Nyrraa—an action that visibly shocked her. Nyrraa quickly shifted to the far right, and her surprised expression caught everyone off guard. While Sara was seen laughing, Nyrraa seemed slightly uncomfortable. Fellow Bigg Boss 18 contestant Alice Kaushik was also present at the event, and viewers on social media were quick to pick up on Sara’s unusual behavior.

Netizens didn’t hold back in slamming Sara’s actions, labeling them as ‘inappropriate�?and ‘disrespectful,�?particularly given the public nature of the event and the presence of paparazzi. Although many recognized that Sara and Nyrraa share a friendly bond, they felt the act was uncalled for and went beyond acceptable limits.

One user commented, "Very disrespectful of Sara." Another user wrote, "Reaction was cute but the kick is not at all appropriate. Sara ko tameez nhi hai very bad Sara."
One of the users shared, "That was quite disrespectful and am sure @nyra_banerjee was unaware about that."
A user slammed Sara for her behaviour, "Learn some manners and basic etiquette. What if someone does this to you? Would you like it. Dosti and all sab thik hai but publicly iss tarah behave karna is not done behaviour."
Another user on Instagram wrote, "Sara behaves like she owns these women ! No basic ethics this woman has. She did the same nonsensical behavior inside the BB House with KV, Vivian, Avinash, Eisha, Shilpa & Diggy. I have zero respect for her."

Nyrraa gained prominence with her lead role as Divya Sharma Shergill in supernatural drama Divya Drishti. Nyrraa further showcased her acting prowess in Pishachini, portraying the titular character Rani/Pishachini. She has participated in reality shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi and Bigg Boss 18.
