"No One is Lower Than You": Salman Khan Slams Scout on Bigg Boss
Salman Khan returns to Bigg Boss to call out Scout over his loyalty and relationship with Love Gill. Read the full drama here.
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is back in the host's seat for Bigg Boss 20, and he has wasted no time in bringing the hammer down. After missing the previous 'Weekend Ka Vaar' due to other commitments, the actor returned with a fiery attitude, leaving no stone unturned while calling out contestants for their behavior inside the house.
Salman Questions Scout's Loyalty
The primary target of Salman's ire in the latest promo is Scout. The host took a stern tone, questioning Scout's integrity and his inability to stand up for those he claims to care about. Salman specifically highlighted Scout's relationship with fellow contestant Love Gill, whom Scout has described as a sister-like friend.
Salman pointed out the hypocrisy in Scout's actions, noting that he failed to defend Love when the occasion arose, especially in front of his own girlfriend. The host questioned whether Scout was being emotionally manipulated by Love or if his claims of a platonic bond were merely a facade.
"Scout, you are not loyal to anyone... You couldn't even defend the person you call a sister-like friend in front of your girlfriend," Salman stated.
The confrontation took a sharper turn when Salman addressed the reports of Scout giving massages to Love. He warned that if Scout had made fake commitments just to woo someone, then "there is no one lower (ghatiya) than you."
The Girlfriend's Confrontation and the Aftermath
This drama follows a high-voltage episode from the previous week where Scout's girlfriend, Kaashvi, appeared on the stage. During her appearance, Kaashvi confronted Tanmay (Scout) regarding his growing proximity to Love Gill. The tension peaked when Kaashvi interacted with Love, accusing her of "trapping" Scout.
While a segment of the audience supported Kaashvi for holding her partner accountable, her comments toward Love Gill sparked a massive backlash on social media. Many netizens accused Kaashvi of making defamatory and insensitive remarks against Love.
Kaashvi Issues Public Apology
Facing the heat from social media users, Kaashvi took to Instagram on Monday to address the controversy. In a detailed note, she apologized to anyone she may have hurt during her outburst.
She clarified that her primary intention was to hold Scout accountable for his mistakes, but admitted that the words she used were insensitive. Kaashvi expressed that it was not her place to judge another person's character or intentions.
"I never intended to direct hate towards another woman or encourage anyone to target her," Kaashvi wrote, adding that she allowed external narratives and "strategy" content to cloud her emotions. She concluded by taking full responsibility for her words and offering a sincere apology to those affected.
