In the upcoming episode of Bigg Boss 18, Salman Khan will be seen confronting businessman Ashneer Grover, known for his appearance on Shark Tank India. A recently released promo features the Bollywood superstar welcoming Ashneer Grover as a guest but also addressing some of his past controversial statements.
In the promo, Salman directly questions Grover about remarks he had made in previous interviews. He said,
“Mere baare me kehte huye suna hai that you have signed me. Sab figures bhi aapne galat bataye. Toh phir yeh dogalapan kya hai? (I heard you talked about signing me and mentioned all the wrong figures. So what is this double standard?)”
Ashneer responded politely, acknowledging Salman’s value as a brand ambassador. He said,
“Aapko jo brand ambassador kia, I think that was one of the smartest moves.”
However, Salman Khan pressed further, questioning Grover’s inconsistent behavior. “Yeh jo attitude ab hai, tab wahan nahi dikha tha (This attitude you are showing now wasn’t apparent back then),” he added. Ashneer then explained that his remarks had been taken out of context during a podcast.

For those unfamiliar, Ashneer Grover had previously shared an incident involving Salman Khan during a podcast interview. He recalled meeting the actor for a sponsored ad shoot and spending hours briefing him about the company. However, Ashneer Grover claimed that Salman’s manager had refused a photo request, stating that the superstar might take offense.
Ashneer Grover recounted,
“Salman Khan se mila hoon. Usko humne sponsor rakha tha, toh uske shoot ke liye mila tha. Teen ghante baitha tha uske saath, uske manager ne bol diya ki photo nahi khichwani hai. Maine kaha saale, nahi khichwaunga photo, bhaad main ja tu. Matlab aisi kaunsi heropanti ho gayi? (I met Salman when I briefed him for a sponsored ad shoot. I spent three hours with him, but his manager said he wouldn’t take a photo. I said fine, I won’t insist, but what kind of arrogance is this?)”
The promo has sparked curiosity and excitement among fans, with many eager to watch the full interaction unfold in the upcoming episode.
