Mumbai, Sep 25, IANS - The recent episode of Bigg Boss 19 was marked by a contentious exchange as Baseer Ali once again became embroiled in disputes. During this confrontation, his comments directed at fellow contestant Pranit More drew significant backlash from the online community. In a fiery moment, Baseer allegedly suggested that Pranit should return to his 'village,' and referred to his personality as 'ugly.'
This sparked considerable outrage, with many viewers deeming the remarks as disrespectful and unwarranted. The incident unfolded amid an ongoing altercation between Amaal Mallik and Pranit More, during which Baseer chose to intervene, seemingly vying for attention and screen time. However, Pranit's quick-witted comeback, 'Jo hoon apne dum pe aya hoon,' resonated well with the audience, earning him praise from the show's fans.
Viewers applauded Pranit for maintaining his composure and responding with dignity, rather than sinking to Baseer's level. Earlier, Amaal Malik had been seen provoking Pranit by poking him in the chest and making disparaging remarks, even calling him 'Zazu'—a reference to the bird from The Lion King known for merely delivering messages. Following this, Amaal made a derogatory comment about needing to wash his hands after touching Pranit.
Instead of advising his friend to refrain from crossing boundaries during the altercation, Baseer chose to align with Amaal, exacerbating the situation by hurling equally insulting comments at Pranit More.
