Bigg Boss 19 has been making he headlines for several reasons ever since it premiered on JioHotstar and Colors TV a couple of months ago. While several contestants have already been evicted from the controversial reality show, the remaining contestants are still managing to keep the hype around the show high with the fights, arguments, drama, romance and jokes.
Tanya Mittal recently began receiving severe online backlash following her body shaming Ashnoor Kaur in the show. While several celebs have spoken about the incident, actress and former Bigg Boss contestant Gauahar Khan took to social media and slammed Tanya. The Bigg Boss 7 winner – who had earlier praised Mittal’s game, criticised her for her body-shaming Ashnoor, calling it “absolutely disgusting.” Read on to see all she said.
Gauahar Khan Slams Tanya Mittal For Body-Shaming Ashnoor Kaur In Bigg Boss 19
Earlier today, Friday, October 31, Gauahar Khan took to her Instagram Stories and shared a video message, in which she called out Tanya’s recent comments. She begins the video by saying, “Initially, mujhe lagta tha ki Tanya bohot hi sorted, bholi, drame waali hai. And that she was very entertaining. And I still think she is entertaining but the way she is body shaming Ashnoor behind her back is absolutely disgusting. (Initially, I used to think Tanya was very sorted, innocent, a bit dramatic — and quite entertaining. I still find her entertaining, but the way she’s been body-shaming Ashnoor behind her back is absolutely disgusting.)”
The mom of two continued, “Calling her ‘haathi’ in the task, and saying things like ‘21 saal ki nahi lagti hai’, ‘kitni chubby hai’, ‘iska toh weight put on ho raha hai.’ (She called her elephant during a task and said things like, ‘She doesn’t look 21,’ ‘She’s so chubby,’ and ‘She’s putting on weight).’
Gauahar further highlighted an incident that took place two weeks ago, wherein Tanya commented on Ashnoor’s dress. She said, “About two weeks ago, Ashnoor came out wearing a dress, and Neelam said she looked nice. Tanya added, ‘She looks like Barbie.’ But as soon as Ashnoor left, Tanya said, ‘When did I say she looked nice? I only said she looked like Barbie,’ and then both of them laughed.”
Gauahar Khan: “You’re Not Truly Beautiful”
Slamming Tanya Mittal for her body shamming comments, Gauahar Khan said, “I just don’t understand why someone would comment on another person’s looks and then talk behind their back, saying they don’t look good. Everyone has the right to feel and believe that they’re beautiful. And if you think you’re at the top of beauty standards, that’s fine. But if you put others down to make yourself feel prettier, then you’re not beautiful at all. Because more than being beautiful, it’s important to be good-hearted. No matter how virtuous you pretend to be, if your thoughts aren’t kind, you’re not truly beautiful.”
