Salman Khan raps Bigg Boss contestants: I’m going through lot in life and yet…

Taking a dig at the contestants of Bigg Boss 18, actor and host Salman Khan said on the show that he was having to deal with their petty fights at a time when he was going through a lot in his life. Khan’s remarks on national television come amid heightened security around him following death threats from gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and the shocking murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique, which was claimed by the gang due to his close links to the 58-year-old actor.
“Yaar, kasam khuda ki (I swear), what all I am going through in my life, and I have to handle this,” Salman Khan remarked with exasperation during the ‘Weekend Ka Vaar’ episode on Saturday.
Talking to contestant and actor Shilpa Shirodkar, he said, “Aaj ki meri yeh feeling hai ki mujhe yahan aana hi nahi chahiye tha. But yeh ek commitment hai, isliye main yahan pe aaya hoon (Today, I feel like I shouldn’t have come here, but it’s a commitment, so I came).”
Earlier, sources told India Today that Salman Khan is devastated and in a lot of pain after losing his dear friend, NCP leader Baba Siddique. Siddique was shot dead in Mumbai on October 12.
During the episode, Salman remained a bit serious while reacting to the actions of the contestants throughout the week. However, actor Chaahat Pandey lightened the atmosphere as she proposed to Salman for marriage. While sharing the traits she wants in her life partner and praising fellow contestant Karanveer Mehra for his physique, Chaahat asked the Dabangg actor, “Sir, will you marry me?”
Salman smiled and told Chaahat, “The qualities you mentioned, I don’t possess any of them. Plus, I wouldn’t get along with your mother at all.”
Salman shot for Bigg Boss 18 around 7 pm on October 18. According to sources, over 60 security personnel were present on the set while the actor filmed the episode, and stringent measures were put in place to ensure his safety. No outsiders are allowed to enter the compound without Aadhaar card verification.
