MUMBAI: The latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 left fans shocked as two contestants — Baseer Ali and Nehal Chudasama — were evicted from the house. The double eviction, which came as a surprise to many, triggered strong reactions online, with former winner Prince Narula alleging that Baseer’s elimination was part of a “saazish” (conspiracy). His comments quickly went viral, prompting Bigg Boss 5 finalist Sidharth Bhardwaj to respond with a sharp and mocking video that has since set social media abuzz.

Prince Narula calls eviction a conspiracy

Following the episode, Prince Narula expressed his disbelief on Instagram, writing that he was watching Bigg Boss 19 “only for Baseer.” He claimed that Baseer’s eviction could not have been based on votes, as he was “trending” online and enjoyed a strong fan base. “Agar yeh news sach hai ki Baseer ko bahar nikaal diya hai, toh saazish se nikaal diya hai usko,” Prince wrote, suggesting foul play behind the decision.

Prince further added that contestants from Roadies — a reference to both his and Baseer’s reality TV roots — “never get eliminated this early.” He also remarked that without Baseer, the current season lacked a strong performer, saying, “Flop season kar denge yeh kyunki uske ilawa koi khiladi tha bhi nahi.”

Sidharth Bhardwaj hits back with sarcasm

Reacting to Prince’s claims, Sidharth Bhardwaj posted a satirical video on his social media handles. In the clip, the Bigg Boss 5 finalist ridiculed Prince’s emotional reaction, saying, “Maa kasam mujhe laga Baseer ki vidhwa hai tu” (I swear, I thought you were Baseer’s widow).

Continuing his jibes, Sidharth said mockingly, “Baseer is no more in the show. Break bangles in his name. Let’s stage a protest by Anna Hazare or rally him from Telangana to Maharashtra. We’ll put up a statue of Baseer.”

He didn’t stop there, taking aim at Baseer’s style statement as well. “Baseer was one of the most irritating guys to watch on screen. I was going to file a police complaint because of that tiny jacket he wore,” Sidharth said.

“Grow up, Prince,” says Sidharth

Addressing Prince directly, Sidharth continued, “You are behaving like a 12-year-old. Be a man, grow up. You don’t have to cry like a child. Develop your skill set and do the next show.” He also clarified that his remarks were not personal, adding, “Mera tere se personal kuch nahi hai lekin bahot gussa dila diya hai tune bhai.”

In his caption, Sidharth explained the reason behind the video, writing, “Somebody has to do the dirty work and get these kids outta their bubble. It is pathetic to see Baseer and Prince accusing Bigg Boss of rigging the show just ’cause Baseer got evicted.”

He further mocked Prince’s self-importance, saying, “Bro, I guess your opinions about yourselves are like farts… y’all think yours doesn’t stink, but it was a hella stinky one, playboy, and you got kicked outta the room for it. Accept it and move the eff on.”

Fans react to the controversy

The heated exchange between Prince and Sidharth sparked a flurry of reactions from fans. While some supported Prince, agreeing that Baseer’s elimination seemed abrupt, others sided with Sidharth, praising him for his unapologetic humour.

Many fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to share clips of Sidharth’s video, with comments like “Sidharth Bhardwaj said what we were all thinking” and “Prince needs to chill — it’s just a show.”

Baseer Ali’s response

After his eviction, Baseer Ali also spoke out against the show, alleging bias and unfair treatment from the makers and host Salman Khan. He claimed that his journey on Bigg Boss 19 was “cut short deliberately” and that he was “targeted” during nominations.

However, the showrunners have not issued any official response to either Baseer’s or Prince’s allegations. Sources close to the production maintain that evictions are strictly based on audience votes and internal reviews.

Conclusion

With Bigg Boss 19 now at its halfway mark, controversies are once again dominating conversations outside the house. Prince Narula’s accusation and Sidharth Bhardwaj’s biting retort have added fresh drama beyond the show’s walls. As new twists unfold, fans continue to debate whether Baseer’s elimination was indeed unfair — or simply part of the unpredictable nature of Bigg Boss.
