Bigg Boss 18: Ashneer Grover Clarifies Deal Numbers After Salman Khan Confrontation

Bigg Boss 18: Ashneer Grover Reacts After Salman Khan Confronts Him About False Claims

Ashneer Grover recently made headlines after his appearance on Bigg Boss 18. His interaction with host Salman Khan created a buzz, especially when Salman confronted him about making false claims regarding a past deal. The promo of Salman slamming Ashneer for his attitude and “doglapan” went viral, leaving fans intrigued. Now, Ashneer has spoken out about the incident.

Taking to his Twitter (now X) account, Ashneer shared his side of the story. He praised Salman Khan for being an excellent host and actor and clarified that he never intended to disrespect him. Ashneer also insisted that the deal numbers he mentioned in an old video were accurate and backed by his bank and auditors.

In his statement, Ashneer wrote, “I hope you enjoyed the Bigg Boss Weekend Ka Vaar! I had a lot of fun, and I’m sure the episode got great TRP and viewership. By the way, all my statements below are TRUE: Salman is a fantastic host and actor. He knows what works on Bigg Boss. I’ve always admired Salman for his confidence and business acumen—I’ve never said anything disrespectful about him.”

About the Deal

Addressing the controversy, Ashneer explained, “My deal numbers are always correct (verified by the bank and auditors). I met Salman for an exclusive meeting about a brand collaboration in May 2019 at JW Marriott Juhu. We discussed the deal for three hours along with the ad director. It’s okay if he doesn’t remember me—I wasn’t a public figure back then, and he meets a lot of people.”

What Started the Controversy?

In 2019, a video of Ashneer Grover went viral in which he claimed that he had tried to hire Salman Khan as a brand ambassador for his company. According to Ashneer, Salman’s team initially demanded ₹7.5 crores, but he negotiated it down to ₹4.5 crores. This revelation sparked mixed reactions online and became a hot topic.

When Ashneer appeared on Bigg Boss 18, Salman addressed the claims, accusing him of false statements and questioning his attitude. Salman even said he didn’t know Ashneer until now and criticized him for his “doglapan.”

Despite the heated exchange, Ashneer remains firm about his claims, emphasizing that his numbers were genuine and verified. Whether or not the controversy settles down, this episode of Bigg Boss 18 has undoubtedly grabbed the audience’s attention.
