During the conversation, Ashnoor said that he did not intend to hurt Tanya. However, Salman refuted his explanation with video evidence, noting that the act appeared to stem from anger rather than an accident. The makers of the show ultimately decided to oust Ashnoor based on the severity of the controversy.
At the beginning of the episode, Salman asked the housemates, “Which week is this? What will happen after this?” The contestants responded in unison: “Final week.”
Referring to last week’s events, Salman asked the group what they saw on the show. Before Salman could press Gaurav for details, contestant Shehbaz started answering. Gaurav replied, “Sir, there was a lot of un-making. The plate broke. There were a lot of clashes.”
After this, Salman further said that this incident went beyond a broken plate. Turning to Pranit, he asked him to recall the moment when Tanya was hurt. Praneet replied during the ticket-to-finale task, “Maybe the slab that had missed Ashnoor’s hand might have hit him.”
After this Salman played the task footage for the housemates. He reprimanded Ashnoor and said that the video clearly shows that he had knowledge Of Tanya’s closeness. She said she failed to apologize after she was hurt and rejected Gaurav’s attempts to explain the seriousness of the situation. Ashnoor defended himself by saying that he had suffered pain in his shoulder due to holding the plank and insisted that the injury was unintentional.
Salman Khan paid emotional tribute to Dharmendra
During the episode, Salman addressed the audience saying that he was reluctant to host this week’s special event considering the ongoing tension inside and outside the Bigg Boss house. He also condoled the demise of veteran actor Dharmendra.
In a segment of the ongoing Family Week, Ashnoor’s father encouraged her to stand up against issues like alleged body shaming by Tanya Mittal and former contestants Neelam Giri and Kunika Sadanand. This advice appears to have contributed to increased conflict, which ultimately resulted in his exit.
