The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 delivered high-voltage drama as contestants Gaurav Khanna and Amaal Malik locked horns over the controversial topic of nepotism. What began as sarcasm soon escalated into a heated argument that has now spilled over into the new promo, leaving the entire house shaken. The conflict began when Farhana Bhatt and Amaal Malik mocked Gaurav, calling his behavior on the show fake.

Gaurav Khanna Hits Back

Gaurav hit back, saying, “If I’ve been acting even for three months, I deserve an Oscar.” He didn’t stop there. Responding to Amaal, he said that if Amaal believes he is playing a character, then Amaal too is playing the role of a struggling musician, constantly talking about his hardships. This exchange quickly intensified, forming one of the episode’s most explosive confrontations. Gaurav then took a direct dig at Amaal’s industry background, claiming that, it was easier for Amaal to meet Salman Khan because of his family connections and an artist like Gaurav would need 20 years to get such an opportunity.

Amaal immediately disagreed, insisting that every artist’s struggle is the same, regardless of family background. Housemate Malti stepped in, reminding both that every individual’s journey is unique and cannot be compared. The new promo has added even more fuel to the fire. Bigg Boss calls the contestants into the assembly room, stating that housemates accuse him of being biased and cheating with tasks, but he doesn’t care about these allegations.

The frustration stemmed from Gaurav’s recent captaincy, which contestants believe was handed to him through a one-sided decision by Bigg Boss. Although the promo doesn’t reveal it, sources from inside the episode confirm a major twist, Gaurav’s captaincy is revoked, and Shahbaz is elected as the new captain after a vote inside the assembly room. As soon as they step out, Gaurav and Amaal clash again.
