Bigg Boss 19: Amaal Mallik APOLOGISES To Farhana Bhatt For Calling Her Mother ‘B-Grade’

Following intense confrontation and social media fury, Amaal Mallik retracts the derogatory remark made toward Farhana’s mother during the captaincy task.

October 17, 2025: The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 descended into chaos following a volatile confrontation between singer-composer Amaal Mallik and contestant Farhana Bhatt during a tense captaincy task. The argument, which began over a disputed task move, quickly escalated into a deeply personal and physically aggressive row that has since divided the show’s viewers.

The conflict was ignited when Farhana shredded a letter sent from housemate Neelam Giri’s parents, a move intended to gain an advantage in the task. This tactic enraged several housemates, particularly Amaal. In a furious response, Amaal grabbed a plate of food from Farhana, threw the food away, and smashed the plate in the living area.

The verbal exchange then took a severe turn. When Farhana referred to Amaal as a “B-grade person,” Amaal retaliated with an obscene remark directed at her mother.

Amaal Issues an Apology Amidst Backlash

Following the incident, which drew immediate criticism from housemates and viewers, Amaal was seen in a show promo offering an apology to Farhana. He stated, “Whatever I have told you about the [expletive] thing, I am sorry, I don’t mean it. Baaki tereko accept karna hai to kar, nahi karna hai to mat kar. I am sorry about that statement.”

Despite the apology, the incident has sparked a social media war between the contestants’ respective teams.

Teams Clash on Social Media

Farhana’s team slammed Amaal on X (formerly Twitter), releasing an official statement that called his actions “cheap, shameful, and completely unacceptable.” The statement took a strong stance on gender, suggesting Amaal’s confidence only “comes out when it’s the women in the house,” and condemning the food-throwing as “pure disrespect.”

The post emphasized the gravity of Amaal’s personal attack, noting, “Commenting on Farhana’s parents, especially her mother, was beyond low. She was genuinely hurt imagine hearing such things from someone you once called a friend.”

In defense of the singer, Amaal’s team responded by pointing out that “Taali kabhi ek hi haath se nahi bajti” (it takes two hands to clap). They acknowledged the prior friendship but stated that Farhana herself had “disrespected Amaal over a simple thing” and deliberately tore Neelam’s family letter to provoke a reaction.

Amaal’s team defended his history in the house, arguing his “biggest fights have been with men,” and pushed back on the narrative that only one person was at fault for crossing lines.

The Internet is Divided

The public reaction to the fight remains split. Some viewers have slammed Farhana for her initial action of tearing Neelam’s family letter and for her own choice of words, arguing she unnecessarily provoked Amaal. Others have opined that Amaal overreacted and was completely in the wrong for escalating the fight with physical aggression (throwing food/breaking a plate) and for using the derogatory language involving Farhana’s mother—a line many believe should never be crossed in a reality show setting.

The fallout from this incident is expected to be a central focus in the coming episodes as house dynamics shift and the consequences of their actions are addressed.
