on stage and urged his son to play the game with dignity and self-control.Daboo began by telling Amaal, “The whole nation is watching you, and I’m proud of your music and the legacy you’ve taken forward. You’re on the biggest show, but remember, the real big show is outside. Your aggression and fights are fine — sar aankhon par — but please don’t use a single bad word and never go below the belt. You and I had a pact that we’ll never say anything that demeans a woman.” Holding back tears, Daboo continued, “You’re the same child who once held my hand and said, ‘Papa, I’ll earn 10,000.’ Fight if you must, but fight with dignity. Don’t let your tongue go under the belt. I love you, I’m proud of you, but I had to say that the game has just started, and you’re only halfway through. Please don’t put it on my head that you’ll behave like this.” Amaal broke down listening to his father’s words and promised, “I’ll improve and control myself.”

Daboo gently added, “You can fight, but with respect. Don’t lose the battle of dignity. I’m proud of your work, not of what’s happening here.” Salman Khan then joined in, asking Daboo if he had been watching the show. Daboo nodded, “Yes.” Salman followed up, “You kept saying, ‘I’m proud of you’ is that right?” To this, Daboo clarified, “Yes, I know it is wrong what I'm proud of is I’m proud of his work, not of what’s happening here.” Agreeing with Daboo, Salman said, “I try to make him understand every day. He knows he can’t control himself, he says something, then regrets it, and apologizes later. But this one thing, your zubaan you must control.” Drawing from his own experience, Salman explained, “People will always go after your reaction. You think you can handle it, but I’ve been through it myself. People talk, they criticize — and you need to be mentally strong to face that.

How will you handle it when the world goes against you? Sanju and I have lived that.” Amaal responded sincerely, “I’m sorry, and I’ll try to control myself.” Concluding the conversation, Salman said, “I’m saying this in front of your dad, you are playing well, but you need to control your zubaan.” Before leaving the stage, Daboo ended on an emotional note, “My dignity is in your hands. Please play with respect.” Salman joked, "Teri dignity iske (Amaal) ke haath mein hai, tab toh gayi." Keep reading this space for more updates from Bigg Boss 19.
