Ex-Bigg Boss 10 contestant Manu Punjabi, who was also briefly part of the current season of the controversial reality show 'Bigg Boss 14', on Wednesday took to his unverified Twitter handle to extend his condolences on the demise of self-proclaimed godman Swami Om. 

Bigg Boss 10's controversial contestant Swami Om left for the heavenly abode on Wednesday. As per Zee News, he had been ill from the past few months and breathed his last on Wednesday in the National Capital Region. 

Confirming the news, Arjun Jain, son of Swami Om's friend Mukesh Jain told Zee News that he had a paralysis attack a few days ago after which his health deteriorated. He was undergoing treatment at AIIMS.

Arjun told the portal, "Swami Om was sick for the last few months. Even after recovering the coronavirus, he had a lot of trouble walking due to weakness. After which he also had paralysis in half his body. His condition worsened 15 days ago due to paralysis. He breathed his last this morning."

Meanwhile, mourning his demise, Manu Punjabi exclusively told SpotboyE in an interview that the self-proclaimed godman was very entertaining and that people must forgive him for his idiotism and pray for the departed soul. 

He said, "#SwamiOm no doubt created many controversies and some of his act was really hard to forgive. But we can't deny the fact that he made people laugh. Was super entertaining. He left us and it is finally time to forgive his idiotism and pray for the departed soul. I wish he rests in peace! (sic)."

Swami Om was one of the most talked-about contestants during the 10th season. He was feared and resented by many during his stint. 

The makers of Bigg Boss 10 had sent him home after the self-proclaimed godman did the grotesque act of throwing urine on housemate Bani J. He was eliminated from the show post that.

After his stint on Bigg Boss, Swami Om continued with his series of controversies and created headlines multiple times.

Earlier during an interaction with India Today, he had called Priyanka Jagga, his fellow contestant as 'dharmaputri'. He said, "My dharamputri Priyank Jagga was my favourite contestant in the house. Out of all the girls, I found her of extraordinary character. I even made her fast for Karwa Chauth and created history in Bigg Boss house."
