Addressing the friction caused by her son's interactions inside the house, Sasmita Singh explained that ScoutOP viewed Love purely with a "sister-like fondness". As an only child, ScoutOP grew up without siblings, which she noted limits his frame of reference for non-romantic relationships outside of his parents.
"When he first entered the Bigg Boss house, he did not have any bond with anyone," Sasmita shared in an interview with Moneycontrol. She added that he grew fond of the way Love cared for him, maintaining that he holds deep respect for women and had no wrong intentions behind their close interactions.
However, Sasmita also expressed that Love, being an observant player, should have been more mindful of how those boundaries appeared on national television. She suggested that her son's trusting nature leaves him easily influenced, noting that viewers only witness edited snippets rather than the full context of everyday conversations inside the house.
