‘How Dare..’: Gauahar Khan Slams Amaal Mallik For Touching Abhishek Bajaj’s Face On Bigg Boss 19

Bigg Boss 19 continues to deliver high-voltage drama with unexpected twists and fiery confrontations. The latest episode saw an intense clash between singer-composer Amaal Mallik and actor Abhishek Bajaj during the nomination task that left both contestants and viewers stunned. The altercation also drew sharp criticism from former BB winner Gauahar Khan, who expressed outrage over Amaal’s actions.

Gauahar Khan Reacts Strongly Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Gauahar condemned Amaal’s behavior, calling it a clear case of physical provocation. She wrote, “How dare someone touch another person’s face???? Almost squeezing lips??? What is going on? Provocation through touch is physicality. Isn’t that clear???? Call Amaal out or let everyone act like

animals and hit each other.”

How dare someone touch another persons face ???? Almost squeezing lips ??? What the hell is this . Provocation in touch is physicality . Isn’t that simple ???? Pull amaal up or let everyone loose like animals to hit each other . If this is allowed , where would u draw the line ??…

Her tweet quickly went viral, with many viewers agreeing that touching another contestant’s face was uncalled for. Gauahar further added, “Kahaan likha hai ke kisi ke body ko allowed hai touch karna in any form. Ab kaun charge kiya forehead touch karne???? Ab bhi provocative nahi tha???”

Kamya Punjabi Backs Gauahar
Actor Kamya Punjabi also weighed in on the controversy, tweeting, “What Amaal did was completely inappropriate. It was unnecessary and uncalled for… And so was Baseer.” Kamya’s remarks added fuel to the ongoing debate over contestants crossing boundaries in the reality show.

What Happened During The Task
The heated moment unfolded when Amaal aggressively offered a pani puri to Abhishek, taunting, “Ghar ka saara gand khaata hai, yeh bhi khaale.” (He consumes all the mess in the house; he might as well eat this too.) A visibly angry Abhishek responded, “Mooh pe haath kyun lagaya?” (Why did you touch my face?) before shoving Amaal in frustration. Baseer Ali then intervened, yelling, “Dhakka kya maar raha hai usko? Jaakar udhar baith, bewakoof.”

The incident has since divided fans while some blame Amaal for instigating physical contact, others believe Abhishek’s reaction crossed the line.
