The latest episode of “Bigg Boss OTT 3” has captured intense drama following an altercation between contestants Armaan Malik and Vishal Pandey. The incident unfolded after Vishal made a comment about Armaan’s wife, Kritika Malik, which led to a physical confrontation where Armaan slapped Vishal.
The conflict began when Vishal told fellow contestant Lovekesh Kataria that he “finds Armaan’s wife, Kritika Malik, beautiful.” When Armaan learned about this, he confronted Vishal aggressively. In a widely circulated clip, Armaan is seen rushing towards Vishal and asking provocatively if his behavior was always like this or a recent development.
Vishal attempted to clarify his remark, stating he did not mean it in a disrespectful manner. Armaan, however, warned Lovekesh that Vishal could speak ill of his family next. Lovekesh confirmed that Vishal had indeed said he found Kritika “very nice,” which further fueled Armaan’s anger, leading to the physical altercation.
Following the slap, Vishal was visibly enraged and questioned how Armaan dared to hit him. Sai Ketan Rao played a crucial role in calming Vishal down, preventing him from retaliating. This intervention by Sai Ketan Rao has earned him praise from viewers and fellow contestants alike.
Social media users have been vocal about the incident, with many praising Sai Ketan Rao for his composure and support of Vishal. One user on X (formerly Twitter) expressed deep gratitude for Sai’s management of the situation, while another commended Sai for preventing Vishal from making a big mistake by retaliating. The same user also criticized Armaan Malik, calling him “characterless” and suggesting he has no right to question anyone’s character.
One user on X said, “The way #SaiKetanRao has stopped #VishalPandey from committing the big mistake of retaliation deserves appreciation!! #ArmaanMalik you are one characterless moron!! Out of everyone in #BiggBossOTT3 you should be last to question anyone’s character!!”
