Bigg Boss 19: Tanya Mittal breaks down after Kunickaa’s harsh words; Zeishan tells latter "Ayaan, tu apni maa ko dekh pehle"

Bigg Boss 19

If one episode could sum up the madness of Bigg Boss 19, this was it. What started as a fairly routine nomination task spiraled into an emotional battlefield, leaving contestants shaken and viewers glued to their screens. At the center of it all, Tanya Mittal’s massive breakdown after a verbal onslaught from Kunickaa.

The evening began with lighter scenes. Gaurav spoke about his wife, wondering aloud what she must be thinking of his journey. Later that night, Shehbaaz lightened the mood by teaching Nehal how to cook chicken in his fun, easygoing style. But things quickly turned serious when Baseer Ali confessed his disappointment with the season. “This is not for me,” he admitted, saying he came to show his personality, not to make forced bonds. He bluntly called the quality of contestants “shit” and said, “Galat season mein fas gaya.”

Tensions carried into late night when Awez noticed the gas was left open. He pointed it out, and while Zeishan apologized, it sparked a heated back-and-forth. Shehbaaz and Zeishan ended up arguing with Abhishek over why he dragged the issue too far. Awez later told Abhishek to “stick to his own topic.”

Day 16: From Bhindi to Big Battles

The next morning kicked off with the song “It’s the Time to Disco,” but things didn’t stay lighthearted for long. While cutting bhindi, Tanya spotted a bug inside and reacted strongly. Kunickaa quickly commented, saying she’d only understand kitchen realities if she spent more time there. Tanya fired back: “Aapka empowerment kitchen mein shuru hota hai. Aap sirf kitchen ki wajah se disqualification karti ho.”

The exchange grew sharper. Tanya warned, “Aaye aaj nomination, phir batati hoon tabiyat se.” Kunickaa accused her of putting people down, while Tanya accused her of making serious and unnecessary statements. The tension lingered as Tanya later vented in the garden. Kunickaa, however, dismissed her outright, telling others, “Mujhe usse baat nahi karni jab tak vo ghar mein hai.”

Nomination Task: Pair Battles Begin

Bigg Boss soon announced nominations in a fresh format. Contestants were divided into pairs—one boy and one girl—who had to count 19 minutes and press a buzzer, while others tried to distract them.

The first pair, Abhishek and Ashnoor, struggled as housemates targeted them. Amaal and Farhana taunted them, while Tanya told Ashnoor, “As a human being, tum acche nahi ho.” Farhana hit hard at Abhishek, saying, “Koi ladki iss duniya mein aap jaise ladke ke saath nahi rehna chahti.” Eventually, Abhishek pressed the buzzer when he thought time was up.

Next came Farhana and Pranit. Ashnoor attacked verbally, saying, “Aap jaise logo ke liye yaha jagah hi nahi hai.” Abhishek joined in, calling her unfit for the house. Neelam and Kunickaa also took digs, with Kunickaa accusing Farhana of making mothers cry.

In another round, Awez and Nagma were directly disqualified after Abhishek locked them inside the activity room. Bigg Boss intervened and nominated them both.

Kunickaa big hit at Tanya

Then came the explosive round with Tanya and Gaurav. During the nominations, Kunickaa didn’t hold back while targeting Tanya Mittal. She mocked her saying, “150 bodyguard wali Tanya Mittal, jisko pyaz katna nahi aata, jisne bhindi ka keeda tak nahi dekha.” Taking it further, she hit a personal note by dragging Tanya’s upbringing: “Tumhari maa ne tumhe basic cheezein bhi nahi sikhayi.”

Kunickaa then went on a long rant, questioning Tanya’s privilege and journey. She accused her of having no real struggle, pointing out how she started a YouTube channel just a few months ago, mostly making mandir and bhakti content. “Yeh koi badi achievement nahi hai, yeh qualification nahi balki disqualification hai,” she declared.

She even used her saree as an example, saying she wears it with pride to show women can be empowered in traditional attire too. Wrapping her tirade, Kunickaa compared Tanya to a “jhutti insaan” and a “bewakoof,” and claimed that her so-called privilege doesn’t deserve a platform like Bigg Boss.

Tanya’s Breakdown and House Reactions

The remarks hit Tanya hard. Inside the activity area, she broke down, crying uncontrollably. Nagma consoled her, but Kunickaa dismissed her tears as a “victim card.” Other housemates rallied around Tanya, saying personal attacks involving parents were unfair.

The clash escalated when Zeishan took a brutal dig, dragging Kunickaa’s son into the argument, he said "Ayaan, tu apni maa ko dekh Pehle bhai jo aake stage pe roota hai na, tu dekh, tu Gwalior se vote dilvale ya apne gobar wale se dilwale, sachi yeh hai teri maa ki."

Amid tears, Tanya revealed her own painful past, said "Meri mumma meri bhagwan hai, mein bahot mushkil se ladke yaha aai hoon," reveals "mere papa mujhe marte, meko mumma bachata thi, Bahot mushkil se business karne ki pemission mili, mein 19 saal ki thi meri shaadi hojati, mein marne chali gayi thi, maine bahot ladai ki hai"

The episode ended on this emotional, fiery note, Tanya’s vulnerability on full display, Kunickaa facing criticism for her harsh words, and the house deeply divided.
