Bigg Boss 19: Gauahar Khan Slams Tanya Mittal for Body Shaming Ashnoor

Bigg Boss Season 7 winner Gauahar Khan has publicly criticized Tanya Mittal for her relentless body-shaming of Ashnoor Kaur, a contestant on Bigg Boss 19. Khan expressed her disappointment on social media, stating that while she once found Mittal’s persona entertaining, her ongoing comments about Ashnoor’s body are ‘absolutely disgusting’. Mittal has allegedly made remarks such as calling Ashnoor an ‘elephant’ and commenting on her weight, implying she looks older than her 21 years. Khan recalled a specific instance where Mittal’s comment about Ashnoor’s dress was laden with sarcasm, illustrating the hurtful gossip occurring within the house. Gauahar Khan championed the idea of inner beauty, asserting that even the most stylish outfits cannot mask unkind thoughts or a negative inner disposition. She believes that putting others down to feel beautiful is a false measure of self-worth. The controversy gained traction following reports of Mittal and Neelam Giri discussing Ashnoor’s perceived weight gain and criticizing her fashion choices, which have been deemed insensitive by many viewers who have voiced their outrage online.
