In the new promo, Salman said, “Obviously, Abhishek galat hai. 100% galat hai. But usko voh mukaam tak pohochaane wala, voh galat nahi hai? Tissue paper muh main thopna, blanket, baap ka mental beta… aap log sab yeh dekh rahe the toh kisi ne Samarth ko rokne ki koshish nahi ki? Did anyone say, ‘Samarth, what are you doing, man? Pagal ho gaya hai kya? Mat kar yeh.”

He then asked Isha Malviya, “Agar aap Abhishek hote aur Samarth aapke saath yeh karta, toh aap kya karti?” To this, Isha replied, “Maarti sir, maarti.” Salman asked Samarth, “End result aapko yahi chahiye tha na ki voh aap pe haath uthaaye? To yeh planned tha?” Samarth said, “Mujhe uske trigger points pata the ki voh mentally itna strong nahi hai.” Salman continued, “Basically, aapko yeh finale chahiye tha ki yeh aisa hoga jo ki aapne successfully haasil kar liya hai.”
After the news of Abhishek’s eviction emerged online, several fans took social media by storm to extend their support for the actor. Several celebrities like Riteish Deshmukh and Elvish Yadav also supported Abhishek. They called it an unfair eviction since Samarth knowingly provoked him. In a conversation with Munawar Faruqui after the incident, Samarth admitted to purposely provoking Samarth and triggering him.
