**‘Bigg Boss 19’: Salman Khan Schools Neelam Giri, Calls Her a ‘Weak Competitor’**
*By Isha Sharma | Oct 11, 2025, 02:21 PM*
In the latest promo for *Bigg Boss 19*’s Weekend Ka Vaar, host Salman Khan confronted contestant Neelam Giri over her refusal to cook following a disagreement with fellow housemate Gaurav Khanna.
During a recent task, Gaurav Khanna had made a comment accusing Neelam of only cooking and doing nothing else in the game. Although Khanna later clarified that his remark was part of the task, Neelam decided to give up her cooking duties altogether.
### The Confrontation
In the promo, Salman Khan questioned Neelam, “*Playground wale task mein karna kya tha?*” (What were you supposed to do in the playground task?). Neelam responded, “*Bura bura bolna tha*” (We had to say bad things).
Salman then asked why she was taking out her anger on everyone for something Khanna had said as part of the game task. Neelam explained that she simply didn’t feel like cooking after the incident.
### Salman Khan Criticizes Neelam as a ‘Weak Competitor’
Salman did not hold back in his critique. He pointed out that Neelam fails to voice her opinions clearly in the house and called her a “weak competitor.” He stated:
> “*Iss ghar mein aapka jo opinion hai, woh saamne aata hi nahi hai. Sach kadwa hota hai. Ki aap ek aisi weak competitor ho, ki inko aapse koi khatra nahi hai.*”
> (This is exactly the problem, Neelam. In this house, your opinions never come forward. The truth is bitter. You’re such a weak competitor that no one here sees you as a threat.)
### Fan Reactions on Twitter
The promo has stirred reactions among fans of the show. Many applauded Salman Khan for raising the issue. One fan tweeted, “Salman Khan is right,” while another expressed relief, saying, “Thank God he raised this issue.”
Others pointed out that some contestants, like Amaal and Shehbaz, were supporting Neelam, with a fan commenting, “Tell Amaal and Shehbaz also, they were supporting Neelam. Gaurav was right.”
### Neelam Faces Eviction This Week
Meanwhile, Neelam Giri is among the contestants nominated for eviction this week. As the show progresses, viewers eagerly await how Neelam will respond to Salman’s critique and if this confrontation will impact her standing in the game.
