In the latest ‘Weekend Ka Vaar’ episode of Bigg Boss 19, host Salman Khan didn’t hold back when confronting contestant Shehbaz Badesha. Following a discussion about Shehbaz’s safe gameplay, he claimed that Sidharth Shukla’s fans would support him even if he faced nomination. This statement clearly irked Salman, who decided to address it directly.
Salman Khan pointed out Shehbaz’s reliance on Sidharth’s name, stating, “Aap bade confident hain ki Sidharth Shukla ke fans aapko support karenge. Shehbaz, main aapko yeh baat btaana chahta hoon, Sidharth ne jo bhi kiya hai show mein, aapne dum par kiya hai. Usne kisi ka naam nahi uchala hai aur aapka game, uske game ke 1% bhi barabar nahi hai. So do you really think Sidharth’s fans will support someone whose game isn’t even close to 1% of his? Do you think that Sidharth Shukla — God bless his soul, would have supported you, seeing the way you’re playing this game?” He also touched upon Shehbaz’s claim of knowing Salman well, clarifying that they’ve only met a couple of times and advised Shehbaz to use his humor wisely without stooping to low blows.
Shehbaz Badesha, brother of Shehnaaz Gill, had previously entered the Bigg Boss 13 house during the family week, where his humorous presence impressed viewers. Sidharth Shukla and Shehnaaz Gill developed a deep connection during their time on Bigg Boss 13, a bond affectionately known as ‘SidNaaz’ by fans. Despite their relationship continuing after the show, Sidharth tragically passed away in 2021. Shehbaz later got a tattoo of Sidharth, sparking mixed reactions online.
The episode also featured guests Neha Kakkar and Tony Kakkar. Shehnaaz Gill was present to promote her film ‘Ikk Kudi,’ while filmmaker Ektaa Kapoor was set to reveal the actress playing Naagin in the upcoming season. The show is available on JioHotstar at 9:30 pm, with a subsequent telecast on Colors TV at 10:30 pm.
