Amaal Mallik comes under heavy fire from Bigg Boss 19 viewers for making sexist and derogatory remarks about fellow contestant Abhishek Bajaj, igniting a fresh controversy over his conduct in the house.
The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 sparked massive outrage after a heated clash between contestants Amaal Mallik and Abhishek Bajaj took an ugly, personal turn. What started as a trivial disagreement, Abhishek choosing to eat his dinner on a sofa Amaal had been sleeping on—quickly escalated into name-calling and offensive remarks, drawing widespread criticism from viewers across social media.
Amaal Mallik crosses the line with sexist comments towards Abhishek Bajaj
During the argument, Amaal told Abhishek not to eat on the sofa, claiming that he used it for sleeping. When Abhishek refused to move, Amaal lost his temper, shouting and hurling insults. At one point, he mocked Abhishek, saying he should go home, wear a saree, bangles, and a bindi. Many found the remark deeply sexist, with netizens criticising the implication that comparing someone to a woman was being used as an insult.
Amaal Mallik also called Abhishek Bajaj a ‘naukar’
Things took an ugly turn when Amaal referred to Abhishek as a “naukar” (servant) during a separate spat over food. The incident followed Abhishek’s frustration with fellow contestant Baseer Ali, who had taken food from his plate without permission. Instead of calming the situation, Amaal mocked him with the insulting remark, further intensifying the audience’s outrage.

Shortly after the episode was broadcast, fans flocked to X (formerly Twitter) to voice their disappointment. One viewer commented: “Calling Abhishek ladki’ and saying he wears saree bangles isn’t just a weak shot at him, it’s an insult to women too.” Another added, “Calling someone a naukar shows your cheap mentality… he is far better than you.”
