One of the most talked-about moments from Bigg Boss OTT 3 was when Armaan Malik slapped Vishal Pandey. Even though the show has ended, the controversy has been reignited by Armaan Malik and his two wives, Kritika Malik and Payal Malik, with the release of their new song, “Mharo Pallo Latke.” Released on August 27, the song has grabbed attention for recreating the incident that caused so much drama during the reality show.
Armaan Malik posted the music video on Instagram. The video starts with his first wife, Payal Malik, asking him, “Tell me, why did you hit the boy?” Armaan replies, “You know I will do anything for my family.”
The video then shows a flashback scene where a boy with long hair, representing Vishal Pandey, looks at Kritika Malik, Armaan’s second wife, and comments, “Bro, see, sister-in-law looks terrific!” Armaan confronts the boy and asks him to repeat what he said. When the boy tries to tone down his words by saying he called her “sundar” (beautiful), Armaan slaps him.
For those who don’t know the backstory, during Bigg Boss OTT 3, Vishal Pandey made a similar comment about Kritika Malik to Lovekesh Kataria, saying, “Bhabhi is looking so beautiful.” A week later, Payal Malik entered the house, leading to a confrontation. After this episode aired, Armaan slapped Vishal for his comment, a moment that became a hot topic throughout the season.
The slap incident sparked a lot of discussions. Several contestants and celebrities supported Vishal Pandey and demanded that Armaan Malik be evicted from the show. As a result, Armaan was nominated for elimination for the entire season, but he managed to stay in the competition.
With the release of “Mharo Pallo Latke,” the controversy has flared up again, dividing opinions on social media. While some viewers felt the video brought back memories of the original incident, others accused Armaan of using the incident for publicity and profit. One comment criticized Armaan, saying, “You will do anything for views, not for your family.” Some fans are also wondering if Vishal Pandey will respond to the video, which could stir up more drama.
The music video has certainly stirred emotions, reminding people of the intense moments inside the Bigg Boss house and how these moments continue to linger even after the show has ended. Whether this will lead to a new wave of controversy remains to be seen, but it has definitely kept the slap incident fresh in viewers’ minds.
