Bigg Boss 19 Promo Shows Salman Khan Calling Out Body‑Shaming of Ashnoor Kaur

A new promo shows the host confronting contestants after on‑air remarks about the 21‑year‑old’s appearance drew wide condemnation.

Overview

  • Tanya Mittal and Neelam Giri are shown being questioned by Salman Khan in the Weekend Ka Vaar promo, with Ashnoor Kaur seen in tears during the exchange.
  • The backlash stems from episodes where contestants made derogatory comments about Kaur’s weight and looks, including Tanya calling her “haathi” during a task.
  • Gauahar Khan condemned the remarks as “absolutely disgusting,” while Komal Panday, Jannat Zubair, Rohan Mehra and Awez Darbar also criticized the behavior.
  • Ashnoor Kaur’s father, Gurmeet Singh, defended her in an Instagram post, calling out contestants’ insecurities and praising his daughter’s dignity.
  • Show developments continue alongside the controversy, with Pranit More winning captaincy and most housemates—excluding Ashnoor, Abhishek Bajaj and Mridul Tiwari—nominated for eviction.
