Salman Khan mocks Abhishek Malhan
Salman told the Bigg Boss OTT 2 contestant in a promo video shared by Voot, “Abhishek, toh aap iss show mein followers leke aye hain. Aapko yeh baat ki guarantee hai ki yeh followers yeh show dekh rahe hai aap ki wajah se (You think you have increased the followers of this show, are sure they are watching it only because of you)?” To which, Abhishek replied, “No.”
Salman then mocked him, and said to Abhishek Malhan, “Agar aap nahi hote toh hamara kya hota yaar? Toh hum sab aapke shukr guzaar hai ki aap iss show mein aye ho. Abhishek, ek admi ko follow kiya jata hai, aap followers ko follow kar rahe ho, jahan ki woh chahte hain ki woh aapko follow karein. But aap followers ko follow kar rahe hain (If you were not there, what would have happened to us, my friend. We are all thankful to you for coming on the show. You are following your followers when they want to follow you).”
Reactions to Salman’s remark about Abhishek
Voot shared the clip on Instagram along with the caption, “Salman Khan slams Abhishek for a statement he made in the house! Find out more in tonight’s episode of Weekend Ka Vaar with Salman Khan streaming on JioCinema for free…”
Reacting to the promo, an Instagram user said, “Abhishek has too much attitude, not good.” One person commented, “Yes brother, first stop Elvish (Elvish Yadav, another contestant on the show) in one episode and then school Abhishek…”
A person rallied behind Abhishek and slammed filmmaker-actor Pooja Bhatt‘s behaviour on the show. He said, “This is a totally biased show as Pooja Bhatt is there. Whatever she says, she does, it’s ok. But it’s like punishment for others, especially for influencers to say anything… flop show.”
