Rohit Shetty
In one of the most uncomfortable segments of Weekend Ka Vaar, Rohit Shetty took on Kunickaa for her remarks about Malti - specifically, for questioning her sexuality on national television. Opening the topic firmly, Rohit said that this wasn't just a casual statement made inside the house; this was something spoken in front of millions.
As Rohit confronted her, Kunickaa attempted to justify her words and defend her intention. But Rohit immediately shut it down, stating that no justification could make such a remark acceptable. "You used a word on national television," he said, "and you said it about someone whose parents, friends, colleagues - everyone is watching. The entire country is watching this show."
He reminded her that at her age and stature, she should have shown more sensitivity and responsibility. "You're a senior, you're mature," Rohit said sharply. "You should've never used that word."
Despite her attempts to explain, the spotlight remained on the gravity of her statement, as Rohit made it clear that such comments are not only inappropriate but deeply disrespectful - both personally and publicly.
The segment ended with a strong message on accountability, making it evident that insensitive remarks about someone's identity will not be excused under the pretext of gameplay or casual conversation.
Rohit Shetty revisited last weekend's buzzer decision and questioned Pranit head-on. "You were given a choice to save one contestant between Abhishek, Ashnoor, and Neelam. Why did you choose Abhishek?"
Pranit responded, explaining, "At that moment, I was thinking about the house - who is more responsible."
Rohit pressed further: "If you were given the same choice again today, who would you save?"
Pranit replied, "I would choose Ashnoor."
That's when Rohit confronted him directly: "How is Ashnoor good for the show? And haven't you conveniently removed your biggest competitor from the game by eliminating Abhishek?
Pranit defended his decision, saying, "I wasn't thinking about the show, I was thinking about the house dynamic."
He then narrated the swimming pool incident and explained why he felt Ashnoor was genuinely apologetic and responsible, giving multiple examples to justify his shift.
Turning to Ashnoor, Rohit asked, "When Pranit made this decision, what stand did you take? And if you were given the choice between Pranit and Abhishek, who would you pick?"
Ashnoor admitted, "Abhishek is closer to me⦠so I would have chosen him."
She went on to explain her journey: "I know I was told I'm getting overshadowed, but in the last week, I've changed. I've taken a stand and pushed myself."
Rohit, however, remained straightforward: "When Abhishek was here, we thought his dominance was overshadowing you. But even now, with Abhishek out, we still feel you're getting overshadowed."
Then came the sharpest line of the night, "To be honest, Ashnoor⦠you look like Gaurav's pawn game."
When Ashnoor asked why, Rohit advised, "Try not sitting with him for two days. You'll understand what I mean." Gaurav then added that even he told her that with Bajaj gone, her personality is finally beginning to show.
Rohit responded, "Not just a little - there are only three weeks left. Your full personality needs to come out, now."
He urged her to strengthen her individual identity: "Outside, the audience sees you as someone without a strong personal game. You're still in the house - so clearly people are seeing something in you. But that individuality needs to be visible."
