Asim did nothing to cause narcissistic injury in Sid who in the argument was simply acting out what was programmed in him through mob attack.
Nope, seeing as Shukhla looked like he was about to explode yesterday, I would say Asim caused a pretty massive blow to his ego. He doesn't react like this with any other contestants, since he isn't threatened by them, he's threatened by Asim, and can't tolerate it. He looks for opportunities to belittle him to inflate his own ego, which is why he keeps initiating attacks against him, yesterday he bit more than he could chew, and was put in his place.
He's a pure narcissist.
