Back on Splitsvilla X6’s Pyaar Villa, all the contestants were desperate to find their ‘one true connection.’ Tayne and Sadhaaf were a pair who were sure of one another after a point. Meanwhile, most other contestants were still exploring and trying to build new connections. Suddenly, Anjali took a chance and confessed to Tayne that she is ‘crazy about him.’ Tayne reacted to the very video. In response to that, Anjali accused the makers of putting her up to stating that she is crazy about him. It is when she claimed that Tayne groped her on day one.
