Rohit Shetty Schools Bigg Boss 19 Contestants Amaal Mallik and Shehbaz Badesha
Imagine a reality TV show where people live together and compete.
The host, Rohit Shetty, who is like a guest teacher this week because the usual host, Salman Khan, is busy, had to talk to two contestants, Amaal and Shehbaz.
They got very upset and said the show was unfair when another player, Gaurav, was chosen as the leader.
They even said they wanted to quit the show.
Rohit told them they were wrong to accuse the show of being unfair, especially since they got on the show and their fame grew because of it.
He reminded them that the show continues no matter what, and they shouldn't take their spot on the show for granted.
He also said they need to be more careful about what they say and not just blame it on being angry in the moment.
The show is getting close to its end, with the final episode happening soon.
Rohit Shetty stepped in as host for Bigg Boss 19's 'Weekend Ka Vaar' due to Salman Khan's absence.
Amaal Mallik and Shehbaz Badesha accused Bigg Boss of bias and threatened to leave the show after Gaurav Khanna was made captain.
Rohit Shetty firmly addressed Amaal and Shehbaz, questioning their accusations of bias and their prior threats to exit.
Shetty highlighted that the contestants' fame and presence on the show are due to its makers, and their behavior was unacceptable.
The Bigg Boss 19 finale is scheduled for December 7, with three weeks remaining in the season.

Allegations of Bias
Contestants' Accusations
Amaal Mallik and Shehbaz Badesha accused Bigg Boss and the makers of being biased, particularly after Gaurav Khanna was made captain, feeling Shehbaz was not given a fair chance.
Rohit Shetty's Rebuttal
Rohit Shetty countered by questioning their logic, pointing out that if the makers were biased, they would not have evicted Mridul (who had a higher fan following than Shehbaz) or kept them on the show. He emphasized that the show's format continues regardless of individual decisions and questioned how Gaurav's captaincy made them biased.
Threatening to Leave

Both Amaal Mallik and Shehbaz Badesha threatened to walk out of the show, with Shehbaz swearing on his sister.

Rohit Shetty highlighted that their threats to leave were unacceptable and indicated that Salman Khan had jokingly told him to 'open the main door' for them. He criticized Amaal for repeatedly saying he wanted to leave, suggesting it makes it seem like he's being forced to stay and that his language needs to be controlled.
