Television actor Karan Patel, who is popular as Raman Bhalla of Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, is not new to controversies. The actor, known for his temper issues, recently caught hold of a leading channel's office boy and beat him up.

According to a SpotboyE report, Patel got physical with an office boy at Star Parivar Awards. The actor caught hold of the boy and started beating him until he realised that he got hold of the wrong boy. When he found out that he was beating the wrong man, he apologised and left.

Onlookers were so terrified with Patel's outburst that no can came to stop the actor from beating the boy, the tabloid reported. It is not clear why Patel got physical with the office boy, but this is not the first time the actor courted controversy.

In September, Patel halted the shooting of Star Plus' one of the top watched shows Yeh Hai Mohabbatein because he did not like the colour of his shirt. "It was a needless demand. Every actor cannot like every outfit that is given to him/her. Professionalism demands that actors learn to dress up the way that the producers and channels (Balaji Telefilms and Star Plus in this case) want them to for a particular scene. Else what's the difference between an actor and a dress designer?" a source told SpotboyE.

Earlier, the actor had also landed in an intense argument with the director of the show, Neeraj Baliyan. The two had a fight over the shooting of a particular scene. The fight was stopped only after the crew intensified.

Patel was also accused of badly behaving with paparazzi present at his co-stars Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya's wedding reception. The actor reportedly refused to pose for paparazzi and walked away with his wife Ankita Bhargava.
