When asked about Bigg Boss 16 in a press conference, Karanvir responded that he supports competitors Sajid, Abdu Rozik, and MC Stan and believes that everybody who has made a mistake in the past deserves a second chance. 

According to IndianExpress.com he said, “We all make mistakes and we all have flaws. In that sense, I support Sajid Khan as a contestant. I support Abdu and MC Stan. These three by far I love. They are really really good.” 

The actor added, “Everyone should be given a chance. You have to be with people and I know him (Sajid Khan) from a very long time. I know Farah ma’am from a very long time. Be it anyone, including my friend, if they have done something right or wrong, we stand by that person.”
