Bigg Boss 19: Rajiv Adatia defends Abhishek Bajaj and bashes Farrhana Bhatt and Nehal Chudasama; says 'he said sorry! Baat Katam'

The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan, saw another dramatic fight of the season. The fight took place during the captaincy task, when Abhishek Bajaj lifted Farrhana Bhatt in his arms without her consent, which led to a massive fight inside the house.

Despite the actor apologising for his behaviour, Farrhana, with Nehal Chuadasama lashed out at him, asking for a punishment.After the incident, Abhishek tried to apologise, however Farrhana was not ready to let it slide. She expressed her anger openly, demanding that he must be punished for what he did.Clips from the episode quickly went viral on social media, sparking mixed reactions. Many viewers supported Farrhana and Nehal, by saying that consent should never be taken lightly.

While some defended Abhishek by arguing that his intentions were not wrong. Among them was former ex Bigg Boss contestant Rajiv Adatia, who strongly defended Abhishek online.Taking to X, Rajiv wrote, “Nehal is obsessed with Abhishek! What’s wrong, man! He picked up Farhana, he said sorry! Baat Katam! Abhishek’s intention was not malicious! Ok she didn’t feel comfortable, he apologised! End of! You can ruin his total career n image by making it so big! Feel bad for Abhishek man! #bb19."

His post drew attention, with many fans debating whether Farrhana had overreacted or whether Abhishek had crossed a line.Back inside the house, the fight took another turn when Farrhana told Nehal that she avoids interacting much with men because of such incidents. She felt that being open with them often leads to uncomfortable situations. Later, both women even discussed Abhishek’s upbringing, with Nehal pointing out that no one from their own team came forward to ask Farrhana if she needed support.Nehal went a step further and tried to make other housemates reflect on their behaviour, asking them why they continued talking and laughing with Abhishek after the incident. She urged everyone to distance themselves from him, while Farrhana once again demanded that he should be punished.Abhishek apologised to Farrhana once again, in order to calm things down. However, she refused to accept it and instead shouted at him, even threatening to slap and abuse him. She asked him to leave as she was not in the mood to listen any further.The incident has now left the audience divided. Will Abhishek’s actions earn him another rival inside the house, or will things eventually cool down between him and Farrhana.
