Mumbai: A heated argument inside the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house recently turned physical when contestant Armaan Malik slapped Vishal Pandey after a verbal spat.
The incident took place during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode where former contestant and Armaan’s first wife Payal Malik made a surprise appearance.
The controversy arose from the comments made by Vishal Pandey about Armaan Malik’s second wife Kritika Malik.
Earlier in the episode, Vishal had expressed his admiration for Kritika, saying, “Kritika bhabhi mujhe bahut apkisi lagti hai.” He later added, “I like Kritika, and I feel guilty about it.”

During her visit, Payal Malik asked Vishal about his comments, “You are talking about a mother and a wife, and you need to respect that. What you said about Kritika is wrong.” Host Anil Kapoor along with Payal and Armaan condemned Vishal’s comments.
In his defence, Vishal said that his comment was innocent and was not meant to hurt anyone. Payal questioned that if he had no guilt then why did he share his feelings with another contestant instead of talking to Kritika directly.
After Payal’s departure, Armaan confronted Vishal again, following which a heated argument broke out between the two. Vishal sought confirmation from another contestant, Lovkesh Katariya, who confirmed Vishal’s earlier statement. This further increased the tension, which culminated in Armaan getting into a scuffle with Vishal, in which he slapped Vishal.
Bigg Boss OTT 3, featuring a diverse lineup including Ranvir Shorey, Sana Maqbool, Sai Ketan Rao and others, premiered on JioCinema Premium on June 21 with Anil Kapoor taking over the hosting mantle from Salman Khan.
