‘Bigg Boss 20’: Furious Salman Khan Shuts Down Online Body-Shaming on Weekend Ka Vaar
The contestants of "Bigg Boss 20" are making enough noise on social media with their antics on the show. This time, the group is pretty unfiltered, as compared to the previous season. Audiences have noticed how some of the contestants have been passing derogatory comments on the bodies of other housemates, mocking their style of dressing and so on. Mahhi Vij and Mary Kom's fight had the viewers' attention this week. It all started after Mahhi Vij forgot Mary Kom's name during a task. The boxer hit back saying that everyone knew her while she was just another TV actress. When she taunted Vij as a mother, the latter hit back with sharp words. However, it is Salman Khan's latest promo, which has gone viral where the actor talks about intense trolling and conversations around his looks.
