​From facing physical attacks from his father to suffering short-term memory loss: Bigg Boss Malayalam 6's Rishi Kumar makes shocking revelations about life​

In a heartfelt revelation, Bigg Boss Malayalam 6 contestant Rishi Kumar bares his soul, sharing the tumultuous journey of his life thus far. From enduring physical attacks at the hands of his father to shouldering the responsibility of earning for his family from a tender age, Rishi's story is one of resilience and strength in the face of adversity. In opening up about his struggles, Rishi offers a glimpse into the hardships that have shaped him into the person he is today.

2/6

​Hardships in childhood​

In the task, Rishi opened up that his childhood was miserable because of his father's alcoholism.

"My father was an alcoholic. Every day he would come home drunk and start beating our mother. I was so young that I didn't even understand what was happening. Along with Amma, he would beat me and my brothers too," he said.

​'I pointed the beer bottle towards my father and warned him'​



"When I was in 5th standard, I decided this should end. One night, I made my brothers sleep and waited for him. When he was beating Amma, I broke the beer bottle, pointed it at him, and warned him not to hurt my mother anymore. He started laughing and he pushed me," Rishi recollected.

​'Giving birth alone won't make you a father'​


Talking about the hardships his family had faced from his father, Rishi mentioned that giving birth to a child alone won't make a man a father. Further, he says that they are now in a better space since his parents got separated for the last 8 years.

5/6

​Suffering from short-term memory loss​


In the task, Rishi also mentioned suffering from short-term memory loss and learning difficulty.

"One fine day, I forgot the way to my home. I also started facing issues while learning. Forgetting the alphabet and words, my mother panicked seeing my situation. Later, it was found that it was all due to lack of sleep. Thankfully, the condition got cured soon," he shared.

6/6

​'I am here to fulfill my Amma's dream'​


"I can proudly say, now I am supporting my family. I am here for my mother and I would do anything for her. I miss her a lot. Whenever I miss her, I go to the washroom and cry. I am not ashamed to say it here. My Amma's biggest wish is to own a house and I am sure to fulfill it for her," Rishi concluded.
