Bigg Boss 19: Salman Khan SCHOOLS Shahbaz Badeshah for taking Sidharth Shukla's name for..., says 'do you really...'

The weekend episodes are pretty special for any Bigg Boss fans, as they get to see the host of the show, Salman Khan, sharing his opinions and regulating the behaviors of the housemates on the small screen. The latest Weekend ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 was no different. In yesterday's (November 1) episode, the Dabangg actor lashed out at Shehbaz Badesha for the remarks he made about being saved by the fans of the late actor Sidharth Shukla. His remarks had gone pretty viral quickly, and Salman Khan did not refrain from schooling Shehnaaz Badeshah's brother about his words.

Salman's remarks about Shahbaz

The controversy started out when, during an episode last week, Gaurav Khanna pointed out the fact that Shahbaz has been "playing safe" in the house of Bigg Boss, and he still has not been nominated even once yet. Shahbaz quickly responded to backlash, saying that even if he did get nominated, he would be saved by Sidharth Shukla's fans. This statement caused a lot of controversy, as a lot of netizens and fans thought that saying something like this was pretty insensitive.

This week, Salman Khan brought up the issue and questioned Shahbaz for bringing up Sidharth's name in the game.

Salman said to Shahbaz, "Aap bade confident hain ki Sidharth Shukla ke fans aapko support karenge." (You seem very confident that Sidharth Shukla's fans will support you.)

Salman Khan calls out Shahbaz Badeshah for claiming

The host continued his remarks, mentioning the fact that Sidharth had built out a name for himself on the show. He said, "Shehbaz, main aapko yeh baat btaana chahta hoon, Sidharth ne jo bhi kiya hai show mein, aapne dum par kiya hai. Usne kisi ka naam nahi uchala hai aur aapka game, uske game ke 1% bhi barabar nahi hai. (Shehbaz, I want to tell you that Sidharth achieved everything on his own strength. He never used anyone's name, and your game is not even 1% close to his."

The actor then continued, saying, "So do you really think Sidharth's fans will support someone whose game isn't even close to 1% of his? Do you think that Sidharth Shukla God bless his soul would have supported you, seeing the way you're playing this game?"

The Sikandar actor's remarks did not take a break there. He continued, pointing out the fact that Shahbaz has claimed that he knows Salman very well as well, when that is not the case at all. He said, "And you also said that you know me very well I heard you say that too. When did that happen? I have only met you once or twice in my life, and that too was during shoots."

Salman Khan reminded Shabaz of his

Salman Khan then seemed to remind Shahbaz of the fact that he has his own strengths and that he should use them to his advantage. The actor said, "You are funny, and you have a good sense of humor, so use it properly and do not go below the belt. You have had many genuinely funny moments, but has the box of jokes you came with run out? I told you not to irritate and not to go below the belt; I never said to stop doing comedy."
