Bigg Boss 19: Daboo Malik says efforts to show rift between Amaal and Armaan 'did not work'

Bigg Boss 19 delivered one of its most emotional Family Week entries when Armaan Malik walked in to meet his brother Amaal Mallik. The two dissolved into tears the moment they saw each other and shared a long embrace. They sang together, spoke quietly, and tried to absorb the brief minutes they had, leaving housemates and viewers feeling the weight of the moment. Their father, music composer Daboo Malik, has now shared his thoughts on their reunion and the constant chatter about an alleged rift.

Clips from the episode spread quickly across social media. Fans posted edits of the brothers’ hug and filled comment sections with emotional messages. One viewer wrote, “I would be lying if I said that this didn’t make me emotional!" Another said, “This is so special." The response made it clear that the reunion struck a chord far beyond the show’s walls.

Reacting to the outpouring, Daboo wrote on X, “Ye public hai sab jaanti hai … Kafi Koshish ki hai Burai Dikhane ki … Lekin Public ke pyar ke aage nahin chalta kuch bhi… Aur Yaad Rakhna Haarke Jitne wale ko Baazigar Kehte Hain." His post suggested that while criticism has often been directed at the brothers, public affection continues to overpower it.

Inside the house, Amaal and Armaan used their time to open up about family matters and the way their personal lives are discussed outside. Amaal asked if their father had been upset by anything. Armaan reassured him that Daboo was “fine and chill." Amaal also shared that people sometimes forget context and assume “hum aise hi ban gaye hain," without understanding the experiences that shaped them. Armaan told him he didn’t need to justify himself to anyone.

Soon after the episode aired, Daboo posted a clip of the reunion and shared a note about his sons’ musical journey. He wrote that both Amaal and Armaan grew up listening to Pritam’s work and now carry forward their own catalogue along with classics from industry legends, keeping melody at the centre.

The reunion has quickly become a standout moment this season. Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan, airs on Colors TV at 10:30 PM and streams daily on JioCinema.
