Bigg Boss 19 contestant
Amaal Mallik for his behaviour during the last Weekend Ka Vaar episode, was seen taking a stand for him this week. Salman not only came out in support of Amaal but also slammed
Abhishek Bajaj, Ashnoor Kaur and
Kunickaa Sadanand for the 'sursuri' topic. He began by clarifying that Amaal never made any derogatory remarks about Ashnoor and later confronted Kunickaa, holding her responsible for creating the chaos. However, the conversation soon took an emotional turn when Salman praised Amaal and revealed to the housemates that his words to the music composer last week were meant to motivate and uplift him.
He further motivated him and said, "You know who the strongest people are. The people who have gone through koi na koi takleef, koi na koi loss, depression.. aur woh person jab usmein se bahar nikalta hai, that man is the strongest.
Praising his close friend and fellow actor
Sanjay Dutt for fighting all odds and coming out stronger, he said, "I have lots of friends, there is an older brother of mine, Sanjay Dutt. He used to be in all that stuff, next level but see Sanju."
Amaal was visibly emotional and broke into tears, as several housemates applauded and showed their support. Turning to him, Salman said, “I am proud of you.”
During his discussion with Abhishek Bajaj, Salman Khan reprimanded him for his aggressive behavior. He criticized Abhishek for starting the confrontation with Amaal and clarified that it was Abhishek who threw the first headbutt. Salman also lashed out at Ashnoor Kaur for talking rudely to Bigg Boss and demanding to see Amaal's footage. Salman called Ashnoor Kaur an 'arrogant woman'.
Earlier, during a heated exchange with Kunickaa, Amaal revealed that he has battled depression and is standing strong today. He said, “Why bring up depression like this? I came on this show as a man, leaving all that behind. That is my strength.”
