Bigg Boss 19: Malti Chahar’s Bold Reveal — “I Was Kicked… And Lied To”

‘Bigg Boss 19’ has found its winner, but just before the finale, Malti Chahar was evicted. After stepping out of the house, she opened up about her entire journey and everything she faced inside. After two months filled with friendship, drama, bullying, and misunderstandings, Malti appears stronger than ever. She says this journey taught her to speak up fearlessly—and the love she’s receiving outside is bigger than any trophy. Here’s what she had to say…

Your friendship with Pranit More was widely discussed inside the house. But while exiting, you neither hugged him nor spoke to him. Were you both really good friends?

See, I’ve been explaining this since morning and I’m honestly exhausted. I never played the victim card with anyone. But in the last few days, I faced extremely hurtful behavior. Pranit More kicked me very hard on my back—“as a joke.” Such things are not shown due to the format of the show. At that time, I didn’t make it an issue—I didn’t cry or create drama. Pranit kept talking behind my back, and when I saw those episodes later, it really hurt me. If he wasn’t at fault, why would he apologize? I maintained the friendship, but I was kicked by the same friend. Why does no one look at it from my perspective?

You were also bullied several times inside the house. How did you handle it?

I was bullied for two months straight. Around 14–15 people were against me. But I never stooped low. I didn’t abuse anyone or speak badly. My family was breaking down outside hearing all the things said about me. My brother even had to take sleeping pills because people were calling me horrible names. I’m very strong, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have emotions. I’m actually a very emotional person.
Sometimes it looked like you ignored people’s comments, which made viewers think you weren’t emotional. This has been my biggest misunderstanding. People think that if someone doesn’t cry, they aren’t hurt. But not everything is shown on the show, and not every emotion is understood. I want to tell everyone—I am very emotional. But I didn’t want to cry on camera just to gain footage. That’s why people neglected my emotions.

Your bonding with Amaal Mallik was also talked about. After coming out, he accepted and denied a few things. What’s your take on this?

I knew Amaal Mallik from before. We work in the same industry. We met three months before the show and exchanged numbers—that’s normal. I complimented him on the show, saying he looked good. He became very defensive. I even asked him why he was acting so distant. We fought a lot on the show, but many things weren’t shown. In the end, he apologized to me—and only someone who knows they made a mistake apologizes.

What did your family say about Amaal Mallik after the show?

During family week, my brother told Amaal just one thing: “Once you watch the show, you’ll know my sister never said anything wrong about you.” But Amaal denied it. Later, he himself admitted he had said a few things. I never badmouthed him. He called me “two-faced”, yet I always maintained the friendship.

Your conflict with Tanya Mittal also went viral. What’s your version?

You’ve seen Tanya Mittal yourself. I don’t want to keep cleaning her lies. What I said about her was true—she kissed someone in front of me. If I had said it, the camera would’ve shown my reaction. I don’t lie—not inside the show, not outside.

What major changes did Bigg Boss bring in your personality?

I’m an introverted girl; I don’t express too much. But Bigg Boss forced me to open my voice. Now I speak up clearly and confidently. And the biggest thing—the love I’m receiving from people now means the world to me.

Do you regret doing the show?

No, not at all! I don’t regret anything—not my decisions, not my experiences. Bigg Boss was a lesson, a journey—and every journey teaches you something. Misunderstandings may be from people’s side, not mine. I did the show willingly, and I still stand by my decision with full confidence.
