Over the weekend, a dramatic episode unfolded on Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 when Payal Malik appeared on stage alongside Anil Kapoor, addressing certain issues that sparked controversy inside the house. The conflict arose when Vishal Pandey complimented Kritika Malik, referring to her as "Bhabhi bahut sunder hein..." which was misinterpreted, leading to a heated confrontation. In a fit of anger, Armaan Malik slapped Vishal Pandey, resulting in Armaan being nominated for eviction for the remainder of the season.
This incident sparked a wave of support for Vishal Pandey, not only from his family but also from several celebrities and influencers. Gauahar Khan expressed her support for Vishal on Instagram, questioning whether it was a crime to call married women beautiful. Similarly, Rakhi Sawant, Anjali Arora, and even Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 winner Elvish Yadav voiced their solidarity with Vishal and called for justice. The incident has ignited debates on social media about the norms of behavior and respect within the Bigg Boss house.
