Bigg Boss OTT 3: Armaan Malik violates rules, slaps Vishal Pandey

Bigg Boss OTT 3 has been generating buzz even before its official start, with the spotlight now on a heated altercation between Armaan Malik and Vishal Pandey that culminated in Armaan slapping Vishal.

For those not familiar, during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode, Armaan Malik's first wife, Payal Malik, confronted Vishal Pandey about his remarks regarding Kritika Malik, Armaan's second wife and fellow contestant. Payal sternly told Vishal, "What you said about Kritika is unacceptable! She's a mother and a wife, and you need to respect that."

Payal is referring to a conversation between Vishal and Love Kataria, where Vishal expressed that he finds Kritika very beautiful and feels guilty about it. Following Payal's departure, Armaan approached Vishal to discuss the matter, leading to a verbal spat that escalated into Armaan slapping Vishal. Other housemates stepped in to break up the altercation.

According to the rules, physical violence is strictly prohibited in the Bigg Boss house, and such incidents usually result in immediate eviction. However, Armaan has been nominated for the entire season.

After this incident, a social media war erupted, with massive support for Vishal. As a result, Payal faced backlash from the audience. Additionally, Vishal's parents recently released a video demanding justice for their son, asserting that they did not send him into the house to get hit. Furthermore, Vishal is receiving significant support from industry celebrities and fellow friends and creators, such as Elvish Yadav, Gauhar Khan, Sameeksha Sud, and Bhavin Bhanushali, to name a few.

Regardless of what Vishal may have said, do you think it was justified for Armaan to resort to physical violence against him? Should Armaan be removed from the show as a consequence?
