Bigg Boss Telugu: Contestant Sameer trolled for hugging female participants on Jr NTR's TV show [PHOTOS+VIDEOS]

Telugu actor Sameer (Samir), who is a contestant on Jr NTR's Bigg Boss Telugu, has been trolled for hugging female participants on the first episode of the reality TV show on Sunday.

Host Jr NTR, who made his debut on small screen, announced the names of the 14 contestants of Big Boss Telugu which began its telecast on Star Maa from Sunday night. Sameer, who is one of most popular character artistes, was the second participant to enter the house, while Archana aka Veda Sastry made it first.

But with his strange behaviour, Sameer surprised the viewers as well as 12 other contestants who entered the house of Bigg Boss Telugu later. He was seen hugging all the female participants, while he seemed to be least impressed with the male contestants. It is not clear whether he did it intentionally to make it to the headlines or bad manners. Many were left thinking whether it his first game plan in the house.

But this strange behaviour of Sameer on the first episode of Bigg Boss Telugu did not go well with some TV audiences who took to Twitter to condemn and troll him.
