In the controversial episode, speaking about his relationships, Hardik said, “When I lost my virginity, I came home and said, ‘Main karke aya hai aaj (I had sex today)’. At a party my parents asked me ‘acha tera wala (women) kaun sa hai [who is your interest here?] so I said yeh, yeh, yeh (pointing out women)’ and they were like ‘waah proud of you beta’.” When Karan quizzed him why he does not ask names of women at nightclubs, the cricketer replied, “I like to watch and observe how they (women) move. I’m little from the black side so I need to see how they move.” When the KWK host asked what happens if both Hardik and Rahul are interested in the same person, Rahul told, “Upto the woman.” However, Hardik opined, “Nahi nahi aisa kuch nahi hai, talent pe hota hai (No, no, it’s not like that, depdnds on talent). Jisko mila woh leke jao (Whoever gets the girl, go with her). It is on talent.” A case was registered against Karan, Rahul and Hardik. On August 2022, Jodhpur High Court gave the trio relief as it found them innocent in connection with the case.
