Farrhana Bhatt recalls the time she wanted to exit the house because of Salman Khan

Farrhana shared her feelings about how Salman Khan criticized her during Weekend Ka Vaar for her inappropriate language and confrontational behavior.

Bigg Boss Season 19's second-place finisher, Farrhana Bhatt, had an exclusive chat with Pinkvilla, sharing her experiences and challenges throughout the show. She shared her feelings about how Salman Khan criticized her during Weekend Ka Vaar for her inappropriate language and confrontational behavior.

Recollecting the incident, Farrhana shared, “I was very angry, and I used to talk badly to everyone in the house. When Salman Khan said that he would require a dictionary to understand the language I used, I didn't grasp the purpose of creating this dictionary. However, that weekend, it was my mistake. I was extremely furious and might have said anything to anyone. Regrettably, he (Salman Khan) requested that I read the dictionary, and I actually did so. Main padh rahi thi aur mujhe hasne ka mann ho raha hai. (I was looking at it, and I found it funny.)”

Farrhana acknowledged that she should not have used that language, noting that she was the only person who faced scrutiny for her choice of words. The Laila Majnu actress said, “Mujhe laga tha ki ye zyada ho raha hai. Mujhe ye nahi karna chahiye. Main bhool jaati hoon, main national television par hoon… lekin ek waqt tha jab ghar par… Jab koi ek shabd ghar ke 10 log bol rahe hote the, kabhi pick nahi hota, lekin jaise hi Farrhana Bhatt ise istemal karti, ek aag lag jaati thi weekend par.”

(It seemed like it was becoming overwhelming. I ought not to do this. I lose track of the fact that I'm on national television... However, there was a moment when ten individuals in the house might mention a word, and it wouldn’t be noticed, but as soon as Farrhana Bhatt says it, it would spark excitement over the weekend.

Additionally, Farrhana Bhatt disclosed the moment she considered departing from the show after being criticized by the host.

Farrhana mentioned, “During the 11th week, I felt so joyful and was informing everyone that I would not be pinpointed this time. That day left me extremely traumatized, as that dictionary was introduced in my language. There is a point in time when one feels not to be a part of something. I wanted to exit the house. It was too much for me."
