The Bigg Boss 19 house witnessed another emotional departure during the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode, as Shehbaz Badesha became the second contestant to be eliminated this week following Ashnoor Kaur's shocking exit.
Shehbaz Badesha's Emotional Farewell
Shehbaz Badesha, who had entered the reality show as the first wildcard contestant, was evicted due to insufficient votes from the audience. The elimination was announced by Bollywood actor Riteish Deshmukh, who will be hosting the upcoming season of Bigg Boss Marathi, adding star power to the proceedings.
Host Salman Khan delivered heartfelt words to Shehbaz during his exit, emphasizing that the contestant had finally carved his own identity beyond being known as Shehnaaz Gill's brother. Salman stated, "Next time when you appear outside, you won't be known because of Sidharth Shukla or Shehnaaz Gill. You will be recognized for your own merit because you have performed so well here. Wherever you get invited, it will be on your own strength."
Emotional Reactions and Apologies
Shehbaz expressed gratitude toward Salman Khan and revealed that he had fulfilled his six-year-long dream of entering the Bigg Boss house. In a moment of reflection, he apologized to the show's makers for previously calling them unfair and biased, acknowledging his emotional outburst.
The elimination triggered strong emotional responses from fellow contestants. Amaal Mallik, Shehbaz's close friend in the house, broke down in tears, blaming himself for overshadowing Shehbaz and contributing to his eviction. While Amaal insisted he never intended to dominate their partnership, fellow housemates Pranit More and Gaurav Khanna tried to console the distraught musician.
Aftermath and Previous Elimination
In a bittersweet moment following Shehbaz's departure, Gaurav, Pranit, and Amaal were seen sipping tea prepared by Shehbaz and consuming his share of cookies, creating a poignant reminder of his presence in the house.
This elimination comes close on the heels of Ashnoor Kaur's eviction from the show due to physical violence with co-contestant Tanya Mittal. During the previous episode, Salman Khan had schooled Ashnoor for her rude behavior and criticized her for not apologizing to Tanya even after hitting her with a wooden plank during the Ticket To Finale task. Her exit had left Pranit More and Gaurav Khanna emotional.
Meanwhile, in other house developments, Jiya Shankar admitted her feelings for Abhishek Malhan while slamming Pooja Bhatt, and notably described Elvish as having a "heart of gold," adding another layer to the complex relationships within the Bigg Boss 19 household.
