Bigg Boss 19 host Salman Khan unleashed a fiery reprimand during the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode, taking contestants Tanya Mittal and Neelam Giri to task for body-shaming their fellow housemate Ashnoor. The actor’s passionate reaction quickly went viral, winning widespread support from fans and celebrities across the entertainment industry.
“Who Gave You the Right?” Salman Khan’s Outburst
During the tense segment, Salman addressed the contestants directly and condemned their insensitive remarks. “Neelam, are you proud of your gossiping? Tanya, you compared her to an elephant, a dinosaur, called her fat, and even said she has a face like a balloon. Who gave you the right to insult someone’s appearance?” he said, visibly angry.
The confrontation left the entire house in silence. Salman Khan reminded contestants that the show promotes respect, empathy, and human dignity — values he said must never be compromised, even during heated reality show conflicts.
Ashnoor Speaks Up Against Insensitive Remarks
Ashnoor, visibly shaken, confronted Tanya Mittal on-air about the remarks made behind her back. “Shame on you, Tanya,” she said, expressing how deeply hurt she was by the cruel comments. Earlier in the week, Tanya had been overheard saying that Ashnoor’s clothes “don’t suit her,” while Neelam mockingly referred to her as “Jurassic Park.”
The exchange triggered emotional reactions from viewers, many of whom praised Ashnoor’s courage for speaking up and applauded Salman Khan for calling out toxic behavior on national television.
Industry Voices Rally Behind Ashnoor
Following the episode, several entertainment figures voiced their support for Ashnoor. Former Bigg Boss winner Gauahar Khan condemned the contestants’ behavior, calling body-shaming “completely unacceptable.” She emphasized the importance of empathy and kindness, saying, “People need to understand that respect and self-acceptance matter more than anything else.”
The incident sparked widespread discussions online about bullying, appearance-based discrimination, and the mental health impact of public ridicule. Viewers lauded Salman for using his platform to address an issue often ignored in entertainment circles.
