Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant Armaan Malik is no stranger to controversy, especially regarding his unique family life with his two wives, Payal and Kritika Malik. Recently, there have been rumors that Armaan secretly married a third time, this time to Laksh, the caretaker of his kids. However, these rumors go back to a prank Armaan once played on his wives, which has resurfaced online.
Back on February 2, 2023, Armaan shared a prank video on his YouTube channel, Malik Vlogs. In this video, he decided to fool his wives, Payal and Kritika, by pretending he married their kids’ caretaker, Laksh. To pull off the prank, Armaan dressed Laksh as a bride, complete with a green suit, traditional bangles, sindoor (vermilion), and mehendi. He asked Laksh to go along with the prank and warned her that his wives would likely get very upset.
Armaan set up hidden cameras around the house and prepared sweets and garlands to make the prank look convincing. At the time, both Payal and Kritika were pregnant and were out of the house. When they returned, they were shocked to see Armaan with Laksh, both wearing garlands. Laksh even touched their feet, following traditional customs, as Armaan told them he had married her.
Payal and Kritika were furious. They demanded that Laksh and Armaan leave the house and threatened to have them arrested. In their anger, they even took off their shoes, ready to hit Laksh, feeling betrayed and panicked by the prank. Finally, Armaan revealed the truth—it was all just a prank. Although they struggled to believe it at first, Payal and Kritika eventually accepted it was a joke.
Recently, rumors about Armaan’s third marriage started again after a photo of Laksh with mehendi (which had Armaan’s name in it) went viral. Armaan also shared Karwa Chauth pictures with Laksh, adding to the confusion. Armaan and Payal later cleared things up in a vlog, confirming that he hasn’t married Laksh.
For those who might not know, Armaan has four children with Payal and Kritika—Chirayu, Tuba, Ayan, and Zaid.
