Another one wrote: "This is shocking. You are badly injured. Please take care."
Asim emerged from economic hardships and found fame after his Bigg Boss stint. "I have been through a lot of mess in my life, but I used to feel ho jayega kuch na kuch (something or the other will work out). I didn’t even have the money to hire a taxi to go for an audition. I had the option to walk or go back home, and I would walk," he once told a leading portal.
On the work front, Asim will be seen opposite Bigg Boss 13 contestant Himanshi Khurana in Arijit Singh's new song Dil ko maine di kasam.
