In the most recent episode of Bigg Boss 18, viewers witnessed spicy drama as Rajat Dalal and Kashish Kapoor got into a heated argument, with both openly taking jabs at each other by bringing up past mistakes. During the nomination task, Rajat Dalal, who is currently the "Time God" of the show, shocked the housemates and viewers by giving five nomination rights to Shilpa Shirodkar and Avinash Mishra. During the task, Shirodkar left Karan Veer Mehra questioning her motives after she nominated him. Rajat called out Shilpa Shirodkar for having double standards Post the nomination task, Rajat was seen blaming Shilpa for her double standards. That’s when Chahat Pandey and Kashish Kapoor jumped in and questioned Rajat about his loyalties. The fight got ugly when Rajat took a jab at Kashish by teasing her about prioritizing money over Digvijay during her time in 'Splitsvilla'. However, Kashish, being her fiery self, hit back at Rajat, stating, “At least I haven’t run over anyone with my car.” Kashish Kapoor vs Rajat Dalal The argument escalated when Kashish called out Rajat, saying, "Tum bolte ho main apne dil mein koi bhi baat nahi rakhta, jo hota hai muh par bolta hoon. Agar tumhare mann mein mereko leke shaq tha, toh tumne task mein madad kyun li? Jab kaam nikalwana tha, pata hai na Kashish kahan par karna hai, pata hai na Kashish kiska kitna nikalna hai, tab muh se sachhayi nahi nikli." To this, Rajat responded, stating he couldn’t trust her because she backstabbed Shilpa despite sharing a good equation. This didn’t sit well with Kashish, who called Rajat "Paltu" and said nobody is scared of his words or his strength. Things took a personal turn when Rajat brought up her 'Splitsvilla' days, saying, "Arre suno, par main kisi lalach mein toh nahi palta na..." Kashish retaliated, saying, "Maine kisi ko kabhi gaadiyon se toh nahi udaya, shayad. Personal jaaoge toh mere paas 10 cheezein hain personal jaane ki... Tumhari harkat ne tumhe kahi aur pahucha diya tha."

19 November,2024 10:31 AM IST | Mumbai | Shachi ChaturvediAshneer Grover, the former managing director of the Indian fintech company, BharatPe, recently appeared as a guest on Salman Khan-hosted show Bigg Boss 18.

After the episode was aired on television, Ashneer took to his X handle and issued a clarification in his defense stating that everything said by him earlier with regards to his meeting with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is absolutely true. He wrote, “I hope you enjoyed the Bigg Boss weekend ka vaar ! I had good fun. And I am sure the particular episode got great TRP / viewership. BTW all of statements are TRUE. Salman is a great host & actor - Salman knows what works on Bigg Boss - I’ve always praised Salman for his sense of self and business - not a single thing demeaning said for him ever - My deal numbers are always correct (bank / auditor verified)”. He further mentioned, “Met Salman in an exclusive meeting on the brand collab for 3 hours in May 2019 in JW Marriott Juhu - along with the director of ad (it’s ok if he doesn’t remember me - I was not a public figure then - he meets tons of people) - The invite for coming as guest on Bigg Boss was not ‘unnamed’ - just like the cheque for the same ;) And finally I’ve a pic with him - which I didn’t earlier ;) Thanks @BeingSalmanKhan. Keep rocking”. I hope you enjoyed the Bigg Boss weekend ka vaar ! I had good fun. And I am sure the particular episode got great TRP / viewership.

He shared, “When I approached Salman’s team, they told me that they would charge Rs. 7.5 crore, that’s when I started calculating. I had Rs 100 crore, I will give him Rs 7.5 crore, I will spend another Rs 1-2 crore on making the ad and I should also pay to the broadcasters, it’s a Rs 20 crore expense and I have Rs 100 crore. I didn’t know if I would get another round of investment, so I told Salman to decrease his price, and he agreed to do the ad for Rs 4.5 crore.” Salman Khan confronts ‘Shark Tank’ fame Ashneer Grover Salman Khan tells Ashneer Grover, “I heard you talking about me. You said, 'We have signed him for this much'. You also gave the wrong figures. So what is this double standard?” to which the former Managing Director and co-founder of BharatPe replied, “The decision to make you brand ambassador was one of the smartest moves I made.” Salman continued, “The way you are talking now, the video of yours that I saw earlier, this attitude wasn’t apparent back then,” to which Ashneer explained, “Maybe in the podcast, it didn't come across correct.” Salman concluded by saying, “The way it is now, it is correct.”

There were also reports of him leaving the show, which the actor has addressed. Dilip Joshi dismisses rumours of fight with Asit Kumar Modi In an official statement, Joshi said, “I just want to clear the air about all these rumors going around. There have been some stories in the media about me and Asit Bhai that are completely false, and it really saddens me to see such things being said. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is a show that means so much to me and millions of fans, and when people spread baseless rumors, it hurts not only us but also our loyal viewers." "It’s disheartening to see negativity being spread about something that has brought so much joy to so many for so many years. Every time such rumors pop up, it feels like we’re constantly explaining that they are completely untrue. It’s tiring, and it’s frustrating because it’s not just about us—it’s about all the fans who love the show and get upset reading these things," he added. Is Dilip Joshi leaving the show? Dilip Joshi also addressed rumours of hims exiting the show following a fight with the producer. "Earlier, there were even rumors about me leaving the show, which is completely false. And now, it feels like every few weeks, there’s another new story trying to defame Asit Bhai and the show in some way. It’s disappointing to see such things popping up again and again, and sometimes, I can't help but wonder if some people are just jealous of the show’s continued success. I don’t know who is behind spreading these stories, but I want to say this clearly: I'm here, I’m working every day with the same love and passion for the show, and I’m not going anywhere. I’ve been a part of this wonderful journey for so long, and I will continue to be a part of it. We all stand together in our commitment to make this show the best it can be, and I just wish the media would take a moment to verify the facts before printing such hurtful stories. Let’s focus on the positivity and joy that this show brings to so many. Thank you to our fans for always supporting us—it really means the world."

16 November,2024 11:41 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentToday's 'Weekend Ka Vaar' showcased Salman Khan in his OG avatar. Bhaijaan, with his no-nonsense attitude, grilled Digvijay Rathee and Avinash Mishra for their holier-than-thou demeanor. Salman decided to give them a reality check in the most unique style. Salman Khan grills Avinash and Digvijay During the "Time God" task, Avinash and Digvijay got into a heated fight, threatening each other with lines like “I’ll rip you apart.” To teach them a lesson, Salman asked Karan Veer Mehra to bring a pair of jeans and instructed Avinash and Digvijay to try tearing them apart. ‘Kitne aadmi aapne baahar faade hain’ View this post on Instagram A post shared by ColorsTV (@colorstv) When they couldn’t, Salman quipped, '“Yeh jeans hai, yeh fatti hai, par aapse fat nahi rahi. Aur aap aadmi faadne ki baat kar rahe hain beech se. Kitne aadmi aapne baahar faade hain, Digvijay?' (This is a pair of jeans, it’s already torn but you can’t even rip it. And you talk about ripping people apart. How many people have you actually ripped apart, Digvijay?).” Addressing Avinash, Salman remarked, '“Yeh kaunse show mein aaye ho aap? Karate Combat mein aaye ho? Kaunse format mein aaye ho?' (Which show do you think you’ve entered? Karate Combat? What format do you think this is?).” Salman didn’t stop there. He jokingly requested Digvijay to find a new "topic" to continue his enmity with Avinash because the old topics were becoming stale. If you thought Avinash and Digvijay were the only ones on Salman's radar, you’d be mistaken. Kashish Kapoor was also grilled for appearing fake.
