Payal Malik, the first wife of Armaan Malik, recently reacted to a viral video from the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house featuring Armaan and his second wife, Kritika Malik. The video, which allegedly showed the couple getting intimate, shocked many netizens. Payal, who has been eliminated from the show, addressed the issue in a recent YouTube vlog.
In her vlog, Payal insisted that the viral video was edited and urged everyone to stop sharing it.
“Whoever has shared the video claiming it is Armaan and Kritika’s, I would request them with folded hands to stop. The video is edited. I have stayed at Bigg Boss house and I can say that there are no lamps like the ones seen in the viral clip. The blanket is also different. Those who have stayed inside the house will quickly understand that the clip is fake,”
she said as quoted by Free Press Journal.
The controversy arose earlier this month when the video surfaced on social media. It showed Armaan and Kritika under a blanket at night, with the bedroom lights off.
While some netizens believed the video was genuine, others claimed it was manipulated. Armaan Malik, a YouTuber and one of the most controversial contestants on Bigg Boss OTT 3, has faced backlash for promoting polygamy. He married Payal in 2011, and they have a son named Chirayu Malik. In 2018, he married Payal’s best friend, Kritika, without legally ending his first marriage.
The three entered the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house together in June this year. While Payal has been eliminated, Armaan and Kritika remain on the show. Recently, Payal announced her decision to part ways with Armaan.
“I am done with the drama and the hate. As long as it was about me, I was okay, but now the hate is coming to my kids. This is so shocking and disgusting. I have decided to part ways with Armaan for the same reason. He can stay with Kritika while I’ll take care of the kids,”
she said.
