The aftermath of Bigg Boss 19 continues to stir controversy, with Tanya Mittal addressing Amaal Mallik's claims of "paid PR" targeting him after the show. The dispute arose following Amaal's reaction to Tanya's fans demanding an apology for his "dog" remark made during the show.
Amaal Mallik, a singer and composer who was among the top five finalists on Bigg Boss 19, has criticized Tanya Mittal's fans for demanding a public apology for his "dog" remark during the BB house. Tanya’s supporters responded to a tweet from Amaal’s manager, who requested users not to drag the musician's family into the matter after they were trolled for his remark. Netizens then demanded a public apology from the singer.
In response to the backlash, Amaal took to social media to express his views. He stated that he had already apologized personally and on social media for his actions, not only to Tanya but to every other contestant on the show. He also pointed out that his first tweet after exiting the house was for Tanya. Amaal further clarified that his bond with Tanya inside the Bigg Boss house was purely platonic, dismissing any speculation suggesting otherwise. "Neither she nor I have had any feelings except friendship," Amaal stated.
Amaal accused Tanya's fandom of engaging in paid PR and spreading false narratives. He expressed his anger towards the fandom for targeting his manager, family, friends, and team, who had nothing to do with the show. He urged Tanya's fans to stop spreading negativity and harassment.
Tanya Mittal, an entrepreneur and influencer, has been a prominent figure since the show's premiere. She was born on September 27, 2000, in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh. She won the title of Miss Asia Tourism Universe in 2018. She is the owner of a brand called Handmade with Love by Tanya.
Tanya's claims about her luxurious lifestyle on Bigg Boss 19 have been met with scrutiny. Some social media users and influencers have challenged her claims, presenting evidence of a more modest background. She has also spoken about a painful breakup in 2018 that motivated her to work on herself.
The conflict between Amaal and Tanya's fans highlights the intense emotions and strong opinions that reality shows like Bigg Boss 19 can generate. Amaal has requested everyone to simply stop the drama.
