A clip from the recent episode showing Salman mimicking contestant Nehal Chudasama has gone viral across social media platforms. Fans flooded comment sections with excitement, praising his playful energy and declaring that the actor was finally “back in mood.” The video quickly gained traction on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, sparking a wave of appreciation from longtime Bigg Boss followers.

Fans React: ‘This is the Salman we missed!’

Soon after the episode aired, social media was abuzz with fan reactions. Many viewers expressed how refreshing it was to see Salman Khan’s lively and humorous side again after weeks of subdued appearances. One fan wrote, “Salman, please keep eating whatever you’ve been eating this past week. This is the best version of you we’ve seen so far.”

Another comment read, “After BB13, I’m seeing this spark back in Salman.” Others shared memes and funny clips from the episode, highlighting how the actor’s charm added a much-needed dose of entertainment to the ongoing season. One user joked, “Memers, you’ve got new material thanks to Salman Bhai,” while another wrote, “Life’s good when Bhai does these kinds of things.”

A particularly viral comment described the moment as “a first in Bigg Boss history,” referring to the way Salman lightheartedly imitated Nehal’s tone and expressions, leaving both the housemates and audience in splits.

Salman’s Candid Admission About Hosting

In previous Weekend Ka Vaar episodes, fans had noticed that Salman Khan appeared disinterested or fatigued, sparking concern and criticism online. During this weekend’s episode, the actor candidly admitted that he had indeed been feeling low and lacked his usual enthusiasm in earlier weeks.

However, this time, the superstar seemed completely rejuvenated. With his trademark mix of teasing humor, stern advice, and effortless charm, Salman once again reminded audiences why his presence remains the heart of Bigg Boss. His ability to switch between fun banter and serious reprimand continues to make the show’s weekend episodes a highlight.

Baseer Ali’s Eviction Sparks Debate

While Salman’s hosting stole the spotlight, the weekend also brought unexpected drama with Baseer Ali’s elimination. The Roadies and Splitsvilla fame contestant’s exit surprised fans, many of whom believed he was one of the season’s strong contenders.

Following his eviction, Baseer took to Instagram to express his disappointment, claiming that his elimination was “unfair.” Sharing a screenshot of his post-eviction video garnering two million views, he indirectly questioned the show’s voting results. “I couldn’t have been evicted due to lack of votes,” he asserted, adding fuel to ongoing discussions about possible bias in the reality show.

Nehal Chudasama in the Spotlight

Model and former Miss Diva Universe Nehal Chudasama also found herself in the limelight after the mimicry moment went viral. Fans appreciated her sporting reaction to Salman’s playful act, with many praising her grace and good humor. Her growing presence in the show, combined with Salman’s newfound energy, made this episode one of the most engaging ones of the season so far.

Bigg Boss 19 Nears Grand Finale

With just 12 contestants remaining in the Bigg Boss 19 house, tensions and rivalries are running high. The show, which airs on JioCinema at 9:30 pm and Colors TV at 10:30 pm, is expected to wrap up by December 2025. As the finale inches closer, fans are speculating about who will emerge as the top finalists, with Nehal Chudasama, Ankita Srivastava, and Munawar Faruqui among the popular names in discussion.

Meanwhile, viewers are thrilled that Salman Khan’s energy has seemingly returned at the perfect time — just as the show enters its most dramatic phase. Many fans believe that the revived enthusiasm from the host could help boost audience engagement and bring back the magic that made Bigg Boss 13 one of the most memorable seasons in the show’s history.
