Bigg Boss OTT 3: Vishal Pandey REACTS On Munawar Faruqui’s Support In Armaan-Kritika Controversy [Exclusive]

Bigg Boss OTT 3: Vishal Pandey, who was assumed to be one of the strongest contenders to win the controversial reality show, is surprisingly out four days before the finale. While there have been very few eye-grabbing moments in this season, it was Vishal Pandey's slap incident that made quite a buzz on social media and highlighted the show on a significant level. While many celebrities, such as Gauahar Khan, Abhinav Shukla and others, supported Vishal on social media, Bigg Boss 17 winner Munawar Faruqui, who entered the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house yesterday, also supported Vishal and slammed Kritika and Amaan for the slap incident. In an exclusive conversation with Filmibeat, Vishal Pandey shared his first reaction to Munawar's support for him.

A day after Vishal was evicted, Munawar Faruqui entered the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house and slammed Kritika and Amaan, while supporting Vishal Pandey. Reacting to Munawar Faruqui's support, Vishal said, "I am just happy. All I want to say is thanks, brother. Thank you for supporting me, and again, I would like to repeat myself: where you are not there but still your name is being discussed, it means you have certainly made a big impact on the show and on people's hearts."

For those unaware, Vishal Pandey referred Armaan as Bhagyashali Bhaiyya when discussing how Amaan is lucky to have a wife like Kritika. Vishal also stated that he is guilty, noting how he shouldn't consider Kritika beautiful as she is someone else's wife. After Amaan was made aware of Vishal's statement, he got so angry that he slapped Vishal. The nominated contestants for this week are Armaan Malik, Lovekesh Kataria, Sai Ketan Rao, and Sana Makbul.
