'Sick to the core': Kamya Panjabi SLAMS BB19's Malti for her 'kapde pehen ke aa' remark on Nehal, lauds Baseer

The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 stirred up a storm after a heated exchange between Malti Chahar and Nehal Chudasama took an unexpected and controversial turn. What began as a regular argument quickly escalated when Malti made a personal remark targeting Nehal's choice of clothing. The comment, which many viewers and celebrities have labelled regressive, has triggered strong reactions both inside and outside the Bigg Boss house.

The remark in question came during an intense disagreement between the two contestants. Malti, in the heat of the moment, told Nehal, "Pehle purey kapde pehen ka," a statement that many believe crossed a line. The comment was not only viewed as unnecessary but also as an attack on personal freedom and self-expression. It instantly sparked a wave of discomfort among fellow housemates and led to widespread criticism online.

Actor and former Bigg Boss contestant Kamya Panjabi did not hold back in expressing her displeasure. Taking to her X handle, Kamya slammed Malti’s mindset and wrote,
'Kya hoga iss desh ka jab so called educated logon ki soch bhi aisi hai… That was sick to the core #Malti. Proud of #Baseer to speak up against this shit. Yeh #Tanya achanak Malti ki dost kaise bann gayi???'

Kamya's tweet reflects the sentiments of a large section of the audience who found Malti’s comment deeply problematic. Many appreciated that Baseer Ali stood up for Nehal during the incident, calling out Malti for her words. His response was seen as mature, clear, and timely, and it resonated strongly with viewers who expect contestants to hold each other accountable.

The episode has also left viewers puzzled about Tanya’s sudden shift in loyalty. Tanya, who had previously been neutral or even critical of Malti, appeared to support her during the incident. This unexpected change in dynamics has added another layer of intrigue to the ongoing narrative inside the house.

As the debate continues to intensify across social media platforms, all eyes are now on how the show’s makers and host Salman Khan will address the issue in the upcoming Weekend Ka Vaar episode.
