Ashneer Grover Reacts to Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss Rebuke with Detailed LinkedIn Post
Salman Khan, the Bollywood actor, and Ashneer Grover, the fintech entrepreneur, became tense on the most recent episode of Bigg Boss 18: Weekend Ka Vaar. Khan accused Grover of having “double standards” or being “doglapan,” a term that Grover used on Shark Tank India in 2021, which sparked the heated exchange. Salman Khan criticized the co-founder of BharatPe for misrepresenting his prior deal numbers. “I’ve overheard you discussing me and bringing up sums like ‘we signed him for this much,’ but all of your calculations were incorrect. He questioned Grover, “So what about the double standards?”
Grover responded by posting a thorough explanation on LinkedIn, claiming that his claims were accurate. Salman is an excellent actor and host, he said, adding that their previous exchanges were always civil. He added, “I met Salman for a brand collaboration in 2019, and although he might not remember me, I wasn’t a public figure at the time,” to further explain that the numbers he had cited were bank-verified. We had a terrific conversation, and I even have a photo with him now.”
In an April 2022 speech at Lovely Professional University, Grover recounted that Salman Khan had asked for ₹7.5 crore for a partnership, which sparked the argument. When questioned about lowering the fee, Grover said the actor’s management had given a contemptuous response. But Salman Khan insisted that the figures were erroneous and rejected Grover’s account of what happened. During the performance, Khan joked that he had not recognized Grover until his name was called. Prior to your introduction, I was unaware of your name. Salman said, “I just saw your video and recognized your face,” and advised Grover to watch his appearance.
Grover’s allusion to Khan’s “heropanti,” a term he had previously used to describe an occasion in which Khan’s manager allegedly prohibited him from getting a picture with the actor due to Salman’s discomfort, escalated the exchange. In a surprising turn of events, though, Grover was able to snap a photo with Salman during the Bigg Boss program. The altercation heightened the already heightened hostilities between the two, which significantly increased the episode’s audience and TRPs. Grover thanked Salman for the special experience on LinkedIn, expressing no ill will despite the altercation.
