Host Salman Khan made a powerful return to the Bigg Boss 19 stage in the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode, immediately addressing the rising tensions and controversial behaviour inside the house. After a brief absence for family week, Salman did not hold back, delivering sharp criticism to music composer Amaal Mallik and influencer Shehbaz Badeshah for their aggressive tone and disrespectful remarks towards fellow contestants and the show's creators.
Salman Khan Confronts Amaal Mallik's Hypocrisy
The confrontation began with Salman Khan directly addressing a statement Amaal Mallik had made following a captaincy task. Amaal had boldly declared, "Toofan se takrayega toh bhasm hojaayega, Amaal Mallik aise he nahi hai," intending to project an image of dominance. However, Salman turned this statement against him, remarking, "Amaal strong logon se takrayega nahi, bus unke peeth peeche unki burayi karega." This pointed comment suggested that Amaal preferred to speak ill of strong contestants behind their backs rather than confronting them directly.
This perspective was strongly supported by other housemates. Actor Gaurav Khanna did not mince words, labelling Amaal a "hypocrite". Contestant Pranit More added fuel to the fire, stating, "Face par treat karta hai jaise woh friend hai, peeth peeche uske baare mein bolte rehta hai." These accusations sparked a heated argument, leaving Amaal visibly irritated and defensive.
Bigg Boss Rules and Respect Re-emphasized
Salman Khan then shifted focus to a previous incident where several housemates, including Amaal and Shehbaz, had complained about Bigg Boss being unfair. The host was firm in his response. He stated, "Joh hungama aap dono ne kiya tha ki Bigg Boss unfair hain, agar main yahan hota, main mukhya dwaar khulwa deta aur option bhi nahi deta." His message was unequivocal: he expects discipline and respect for the show's format. He implied that had he been present, he might have allowed the dissatisfied contestants to leave voluntarily.
When Amaal tried to interject with "Aisa nahi ho sakta," Salman cut him off firmly, saying, "Sunna hai toh suno, nahi toh main chup baith jaata hoon." This moment powerfully underlined Salman's stance that if criticism is to be raised, contestants must also be prepared to listen.
Shehbaz Badeshah's Possessiveness Called Out
Salman Khan also highlighted that some of Amaal Mallik's issues were amplified due to his close association with Shehbaz Badeshah. He remarked to Amaal, "Aur kai baar aapke pange ho jaate hain aapke ek dost ki wajah se — Shehbaz." Turning directly to Shehbaz, Salman delivered a blunt assessment: "You have not realised yet how possessive you have become regarding Amaal. Since the day you entered the house, you have been a chamcha."
This statement surprised many in the house and shed light on how alliances can negatively influence behaviour. Salman suggested that Shehbaz's extreme loyalty was not only affecting his own game but was also pulling Amaal into unnecessary conflicts.
This was not the first time the pair had been reprimanded. The previous week, when filmmaker Rohit Shetty was the temporary host, both Shehbaz and Amaal were pulled up for their aggressive statements and complaints. However, Salman's return brought the issue back to the forefront with even sharper criticism and a stronger, clearer message: Bigg Boss is a competitive environment where conflicts are expected, but disrespect towards the show, its rules, or its makers will not be tolerated.
