Vishal Pandey’s Parents Tear Up, Ask For Armaan Malik’s Eviction Amid Slap Row: ‘Criminal Ko Bahaar Nikale’

Bigg Boss OTT 3’s Armaan Malik and Vishal Pandey recently left the internet divided when Malik slapped Pandey for complimenting his second wife, Kritika Malik. Later, a viral video showed Vishal and Luv Kataria making inappropriate jokes about Kritika’s gym clothes. Vishal was bashed about it by Payal Malik and Anil Kapoor. Now, Vishal’s parents have issued a statement.

They said in a now-viral video, “Please Bigg Boss, mujhe aapse nivedan hai ki uss insaan ko ghar se bahaar nikalo jo mere bachche pe haath uthaya. Aaj tak hum logo ne uspe haath nahi uthaya, itna pyaar se humne paala hai usko. Yeh sochke nahi bheja tha Bigg Boss main ki koi uspe haath uthayega (I request Bigg Boss to evict that man from the show. We have raised our child with a lot of love and have never hit him. We didn’t send him on the show thinking that someone would hit him).”

They added, “Yeh hum logo se bilkul sehen nahi ho raha hai. Main toh jabse suni hoon, mera toh dil baitha ja raha hai. Video banane ka maksad yahi hai ki kal ka jo episode aaya tha usme dikhaya tha ki Vishal ki personality fake hai. Vishal ki personality jaisa hai voh vaisa hi dikha raha hai. Uska ek hi chehra hai. Koi do-teen chehra nahi hai (We can’t tolerate this. People are saying that Vishal has a fake personality based on the episode. He’s not fake, he only has one side).”

They continued, “Uske upar jo allegations lagaye ja rahe hain Kritika ke liye, aap mereko ek baat bataiye, kisi ko praise karna kaise galat ho sakta hai? Mere Vishal ka nature aisa nahi hai. Aap log bolenge ki sabse maa baap aisehi bolte honge but aisa nahi hai. Real main Vishal aisa nahi hai, jo bol rahe hain ki Vishal ke liye, muh pe bolna chahiye tha yeh cheez. Aap log dekhiye video, Vishal ne Kritika ko bhi yahi bola hai ki bhabhi aap makeup ke bina zyada acchi lagti hain. Kisi ko praise karna mere hisaab se toh galat nahi ho sakta hai (How is it wrong to praise someone? We’re not just saying this because we are Vishal’s parents).”

They said, “Aur Armaan ne jo mere bete ko thappad maara hai kal, uske liye Bigg Boss se ya jo makers hain unse meri haath jod ke request hai ki voh criminal ko bahaar nikaale. Bhai, hum aapko batana chahte hain ki humari family aisi nahi hai. Hum bohot seedhe saadhe log hain. Mera beta apni mehnat se pohocha hai wahan tak… (We request with folded hands to please evict this criminal from the show. We don’t come from such a family)…”

Vishal’s sister also echoed this sentiment and said in her statement, “I firmly believe my brother has done nothing wrong. He did not humiliate anyone nor did he say anything inappropriate or have any ill intentions behind his comment. His genuine compliment was unfortunately misunderstood by Payal and Armaan…”

Earlier, Armaan’s first wife Payal Malik appeared on the show and disclosed that Vishal had admitted liking Kritika and feeling remorseful about it. Anil and Armaan reprimanded Vishal for his statement, but he continued to deny it. Later, when Armaan attempted to discuss the matter with Vishal, he asked Luv to repeat Vishal’s exact words about Kritika. This angered Armaan, leading to him slapping Vishal. Other housemates intervened to prevent a physical altercation between the two, but tensions remained high.
