Shehbaz Badesha's recent eviction from Bigg Boss 19 has triggered a wave of reactions, but it's his off-screen camaraderie with music producer Daboo Malik that's currently winning hearts. While Shehbaz's journey on the reality show was marked by his humor and strong bonds, particularly with Amaal Mallik, it's the unexpected connection with Amaal's father, Daboo Malik, that has become a talking point.
Shehbaz's eviction came as a surprise to many viewers, especially since he had formed strong relationships within the house and provided comic relief. His sister, Shehnaaz Gill, expressed her support with a heartwarming message on social media, declaring him a winner in her eyes.
Adding to the outpouring of support, Daboo Malik posted a touching message on X (formerly Twitter), expressing that Shehbaz would "always stay in their hearts". This public display of affection highlights the genuine bond that formed between the two, even though they weren't directly interacting within the Bigg Boss house.
Shehbaz himself addressed Daboo Malik's emotional post in an interview with India Today, recounting how he jokingly responded to the message, as it sounded like he had passed away. He clarified that it was all in good fun and that he later learned Daboo Malik had deleted the post after his reply.
The friendship between Shehbaz and Amaal Mallik was a prominent aspect of Bigg Boss 19, with Amaal visibly upset upon Shehbaz's departure. Shehbaz spoke highly of Amaal, acknowledging his growth throughout the show and expressing his hope for Amaal to win. He also noted that he believes their bond will last a lifetime.
Shehbaz clarified that his connections with some contestants were purely strategic for the game. He specifically mentioned that he does not wish to meet Ashnoor Kaur and Abhishek Bajaj again, feeling that they were disingenuous.
The finale of Bigg Boss 19 is set to air on December 7. The remaining contestants include Gaurav Khanna, Farrhana Bhatt, Amaal Mallik, Tanya Mittal, and Pranit More.
Shehbaz Badesha comes from a Sikh Punjabi family from Amritsar, Punjab. His parents still reside in Punjab, while he and Shehnaaz have built their careers in Mumbai. Amaal Mallik comes from a family deeply rooted in the music industry. He is the son of Daboo Malik, the grandson of composer Sardar Malik, the brother of singer Armaan Malik, and the nephew of Anu Malik.
