Bigg Boss 19: Salman Khan says Mridul’s game lacks impact, takes Tanya to task for selective support

The latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 turned intense as Salman Khan confronted Mridul over his poor judgment and loyalty-driven decisions during the nominations task.

Salman began the session with a pointed question: “What do you have to say about this? Whoever made this mistake in the past apologised immediately, but Ashnoor and Abhishek chose to challenge Bigg Boss in his own house. What was your reason?” Mridul replied, “That was because I was against only the two of them getting nominated. I wanted them to be punished.”

Salman wasn’t convinced. He questioned the logic behind Mridul’s call, saying, “Bigg Boss asked you to make a smart and fair decision. Why did you think Bigg Boss would let this go? You made your decision, but did you also think that every decision comes with a price? Saving your friends is fine — that’s fair — but why didn’t you admit it in the assembly room? Your reflex was that they should be punished, but later, you went along with your decision under Gaurav’s influence.”

Even after the task fallout, Salman pointed out how Mridul ended up doing all the household chores alone. “They weren’t even ready to come for your help immediately,” he said. Abhishek defended himself, adding, “I was ready to go, but I felt he should have at least convinced people first.”

Salman shot back, “You guys should have gone instantly. Someone who helped you — you should have been on your toes to return that help immediately.”

Towards the end, Salman made a blunt observation. “They don’t see you as a threat. And even if you win, nobody will remember it as your season, because you haven’t made much contribution.”

The host then shifted focus to Tanya and Farrhana. He noted, “You’ve handled some difficult people really well,” before cautioning Mridul not to mention his outside money again. Turning to Tanya, Salman asked, “You were massaging Farrhana while she was fighting — so why didn’t you say anything then?”

He added, “You said people are nice to Mridul because of his outside following, but when you heard he was crying, you went inside only to get footage.”
