Now, host Salman Khan has addressed the criticism surrounding the show’s casting.

Ever since Bigg Boss 20 premiered, viewers have been criticising the makers over the contestant line-up, with many calling this season’s casting “boring” due to the lack of popular faces in the house.

During Weekend Ka Vaar, while talking to Amrapali Dubey, Salman asked her if she felt anything was lacking in the Bigg Boss 20 house. Hosted by Salman Khan, the show premiered on September 6, with 16 contestants entering the Bigg Boss house. The show has become the talk of the town since Day 1.

However, during this Weekend Ka Vaar, actor Uditi Singh lost one of her lives after receiving the fewest votes from the audience, while Kanika Mann lost her vardaan during the week after the captain of the house, Yung DSA, took it away from her. Because we cut out the abuses, you will definitely make me proud), he further told the contestants that it was a privilege for him to host contestants like them and sarcastically said, “Aap logon ki duaon ki wajah se, contribution ki wajah se aur rules ke ulanghano ki wajah se, aapke badtameezi ki wajah se, emotions aur task ki wajah se aur gaaliyan ko hum kaat dete hain; aap mera naam zarur roshan karoge (Because of your prayers, your contribution, your violations of the rules, your misbehaviour, your emotions and the tasks, and. Amrapali denied it. Aur usmein jab aap bolte ho ki koi kami-naa toh Hume lagta hai ek ya do kamina toh hoga hi ghar mein naa (We thought we would carefully select the contestants, but sometimes there are shortcomings in our selection. And when you say that there are no shortcomings, we feel there has to be one or two ‘kameena’ people in the house, right?). This year, a mixed bag of contestants entered the show, including actors such as Mahhi Vij, Aasif Khan, Aman Gandhi and Amrapali Dubey; singers such as Qazi Touqeer, Rhiti Tiwari and Yung DSA; YouTuber ScoutOP; content creator Arishfa Khan; and sports personality Mary Kom. Viewers were not very happy with the line-up. However, the first week of the show has kept fans hooked to their screens. This season, contestants have two lives to save themselves from nominations. The show is available to watch on JioHotstar and Colors TV.

Salman then said, “Humne socha chaanth chaanth ke contestants laayenge lekin kabhi kabhi humare selection mein Kami padh jaati hai.
