Tensions flared on reality show Bigg Boss 19 as former contestant Awez Darbar publicly accused music composer Amaal Mallik of dishonesty regarding his relationship with fellow contestant Malti.

The controversy erupted after a heated exchange between Malti and Amaal on the show, where the two clashed over their prior acquaintance. Amaal allegedly downplayed their previous connection, claiming they had only met briefly for “five minutes.”

Taking to social media platform X, Darbar directly challenged Amaal’s version of events, writing in Hindi that Amaal had not only “twisted words” but had also “lied” about him. Darbar further alleged that Amaal was presenting a false narrative about his history with Malti in an attempt to portray himself as innocent.

“He’s claiming that Malti only met him for five minutes, but the truth is, they already knew each other,” Darbar wrote, translating from his original Hindi statement. “Still, on the show, he’s acting like, ‘I don’t know her.’ It’s absolutely clear — Amaal is lying and playing a double game.”

Darbar didn’t limit his criticism to Amaal alone. He also called out fellow contestants Shehbaz and Neelam for their apparent reluctance to confront Amaal, suggesting they lacked the courage to speak up in his presence and instead remained silent observers.

The controversy gained momentum after footage aired showing a confrontation between Amaal and Malti. When Amaal questioned why Malti was discussing him with other contestants, fellow housemate Tanya interjected, supporting Amaal’s claim that he and Malti had only met once for five minutes.

This prompted an immediate rebuttal from Malti, who countered, “Brother, he played four songs for me when we met, was that five minutes?” The exchange escalated further when Malti threatened to reveal the full extent of their prior relationship, stating even her father was aware of their meetings. “How can you lie on camera? I can prove it in two minutes,” she declared before walking away and calling Amaal a liar.

The public spat highlights the complex dynamics that often emerge in reality television, where personal histories and relationships can become leverage for drama. Bigg Boss, the Indian adaptation of the international Big Brother format, has long been known for generating controversies that extend beyond the confines of the show and into social media discourse.

This season has been particularly contentious, with contestants regularly accusing each other of dishonesty and manipulative behavior. The Amaal-Malti conflict has especially captivated viewers, with speculation rampant about the true nature of their previous relationship.

Industry observers note that such conflicts often boost ratings for reality shows, particularly when they involve well-known personalities like Amaal Mallik, who has established himself as a successful composer in Bollywood. Whether genuine or manufactured for entertainment value, these controversies generate substantial buzz on social media platforms and keep audiences engaged with the show.

The unfolding drama leaves viewers questioning the authenticity of contestant relationships and statements, a common theme in reality television where the line between genuine emotion and strategic gameplay often blurs. As Bigg Boss 19 continues its season, this particular conflict seems poised to remain a central storyline, with audiences eagerly watching to see if further revelations about Amaal and Malti’s past will emerge.

Neither the show’s producers nor broadcaster have officially commented on the veracity of either party’s claims as the controversy continues to unfold.

  1. This is an interesting development in the Bigg Boss 19 storyline. It speaks to the complex interpersonal dynamics that can emerge in these types of shows. I’m curious to see if the truth comes out and how the contestants handle the situation going forward.

  2. Elijah Jackson on

    The allegations of lying and double-dealing are certainly serious. It will be important to get both sides of the story to fully understand what happened between Amaal, Malti, and Awez. Celebrity feuds can be messy, but the truth should prevail.

    • Agreed. I hope the show’s producers investigate this thoroughly and present the facts clearly. Viewers deserve to know the real story behind the relationship dynamics.

  3. Patricia I. Jackson on

    The back-and-forth between Awez and Amaal is certainly dramatic. While I don’t condone dishonesty, I also know that reality TV can sometimes distort the full picture. I hope they’re able to sort out the facts and provide a clear account of what happened.

  4. Interesting drama unfolding on Bigg Boss 19. It sounds like there’s some discrepancy between Awez Darbar and Amaal Mallik over their past relationship with Malti. I’m curious to see how this plays out and if the truth comes to light.

  5. Reality TV often thrives on this kind of interpersonal drama, but it’s concerning if contestants are being dishonest. I hope Amaal and Awez can resolve this amicably and provide some clarity for the audience.
