Bigg Boss 19: Salman Khan Questions Nehal Chudasma Over Malti Chahar’s Kitchen Controversy; Calls Out Tanya Mittal For Playing The Sympathy Card During Weekend Ka Vaar

In a candid moment during Bigg Boss 19 Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan addressed the ongoing kitchen duty issue involving Malti. He asked Nehal why she thought Malti’s reluctance to perform the lunch duty after a task had become a point of contention. Nehal explained, “I felt there was a lack of will and cooperation. It seemed like she wanted to save her energy for the task.”

Salman then revisited a previous instance when Malti had declined lunch duty for a day, asking to do it after her gym session. He observed, “That was just for one day, and she’s a newcomer. She’s strong-headed and can give good competition, so she becomes an easy target because she’s new here.”

Farrhana added that Malti’s behaviour during the incident was inappropriate and that there’s a right way to request a delay, which the housemates would have respected. Salman then pointed out that Nehal herself had once requested to delay her lunch duty, asking to do it after her gym session. He noted, “Even when you asked everyone that lunch would be delayed, you were also not very soft in the way you requested it.”

Salman Khan Calls Out Tanya For Playing The Sympathy Card

In the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19, Salman Khan addressed Tanya’s emotional reaction following the feedback she received from Malti after her entry in the house. Tanya admitted she was disturbed by Malti’s comments, saying, “I was a little pareshan with the feedback she gave me, nothing against her, but I was worried. She mentioned my family and called me manipulative, a liar, and someone with double standards. I didn’t like that, so I was upset.”

Salman, however, offered a sharp reality check. “You only asked for the feedback, and unfortunately, it wasn’t what your heart or mind wanted to hear. If you’re not lying, then why are you worried? How is Malti wrong for saying what she saw? When people meet your real family, they’ll know what’s real and what’s not,” he said.

He further questioned Tanya’s emotional breakdown after being pushed into the pool during the nomination task. “You were seen enjoying in the pool earlier and even asked Farrhana to push you in. So when Malti did the same, what was the issue?” Tanya explained, “I miss my mom a lot, and because she gave a wrong reason, I was hurt.” Salman replied, “That reason may be wrong for you, but not for her.”

Malti Speaks In Her Defence

Malti defended her stance. She said,“I know she wears a saree before such tasks for attention. I would have chosen someone else if she hadn’t worn it, she did it just to gain sympathy. Heroines have done songs in water wearing sarees; there was no reason to cry.”

Closing the conversation, Salman called out Tanya for being inconsistent. “Your conversations have contradictions because you talk so much about yourself. You say you haven’t lived in such an environment, but this is a challenge show. You understood the game from day one, who to befriend and who to make your rival. You’re playing well, but the viewers get confused. You already have a sympathetic face; you don’t need to play that card. Four others were also thrown into the pool, yet no one made it a drama. Did you do that so it would be discussed today and get you footage?”

Jamie Lever Faces Backlash For ‘Insensitive’ Remark On Tanya Mittal

Comedian and actress Jamie Lever is facing backlash online after her recent appearance on Weekend Ka Vaar, where she came as a guest to roast the contestants. Viewers felt that one of her jokes aimed at Tanya Mittal crossed the line and turned into a personal comment rather than light-hearted humour.

During her segment, Jamie playfully mentioned Tanya’s luxury preferences, saying she eats “Baklava from Dubai” and “Biscuits from London.” However, what followed upset many viewers. Jamie then asked Tanya, “Ilaaj kaha se karati ho?” — implying “Where do you get your mental treatment from?”

Fans and netizens quickly reacted on social media, calling the comment “offensive” and “insensitive.” Many pointed out that such remarks, even if meant as jokes, can come across as disrespectful when they touch on mental health.

Several users defended Tanya, saying she took the moment gracefully and did not react negatively on stage. “She just smiled and stayed quiet — that says a lot about her dignity,” one viewer wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

The clip from the episode has now gone viral, with fans demanding an apology from Jamie Lever. While some argue that the comment was made in the spirit of a roast, others believe it targeted Tanya personally.

As of now, Jamie has not responded publicly to the criticism. The incident has sparked a wider debate about the thin line between comedy and insensitivity on reality TV.

Tanya Mittal’s supporters continue to trend posts online, praising her for handling the situation with calm and grace despite the uncomfortable comment.
