The Bigg Boss OTT season 3 has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride, and the latest episode added another layer of complexity to the drama. Kritika Malik and Armaan Malik faced intense media scrutiny during their Q&A session in the house. The session turned particularly contentious when Kritika was harshly critiqued and even compared to a ‘dayaan’ or witch for allegedly betraying her best friend Payal Malik by marrying Armaan. This confrontation led to a significant emotional breakdown for Kritika.
In an emotionally charged interview, Kritika revealed the profound impact of the criticism. She was asked whether she felt disloyal to her friend Payal and if guilt weighed her down. With a heavy heart, Kritika confessed, “Initially, I did feel guilty. We faced a lot of problems; the three of us were separated for some time, and I even attempted suicide. But later on, I realized that I could not live without Armaanji. However, it’s only because of Payal that this relationship could work.”
The drama did not end there. Kritika was further questioned by Indian Express regarding Armaan’s affections, specifically if he preferred her over Payal Malik. To this, she clarified, “Both Payal and I are equal for him. It’s not like he loves one of us more. It might have seemed that way because Payal got evicted sooner, and I was the one left with him, so naturally, he appeared closer to me as his wife.”
Armaan Malik has also been a central figure in this tumultuous triad. He was strongly criticized for his controversial statement, “Dono ko rakha hai na,” which loosely translates to “I have kept both of them.” This comment did not sit well with viewers or critics. Armaan, however, tried to balance the scales by expressing his readiness to support Payal’s decisions and even divorce her if she desired.
. “It is her choice. If she wants to stay or leave, I will support her decision,” he said. He added, “But we will look into this once I am out. We three will live together, even if God comes down, he cannot separate us.”
The scrutiny and the subsequent revelations from Kritika and Armaan have put their personal lives under a magnifying glass. Ever since their participation in the show, Armaan Malik, Payal Malik, and Kritika Malik have garnered significant attention, and their every move is being watched and dissected by the audience and media alike.
Kritika, visibly shaken by the turn of events, reiterated her position in several statements, emphasizing the equal footing she and Payal have in Armaan’s life. “Both Payal and I are equal for him; it’s not like he loves the other person more. The perception of favoritism might have stemmed from the fact that Payal was evicted sooner, leaving just me with him. Thus, he seemed closer to me by default,” Kritika explained.
Armaan’s controversial remarks continue to spark debate. His statement about being ready to divorce Payal if she wished was intended as a show of support, but it also highlighted the complexities and challenges of a polygamous relationship in a public forum like Bigg Boss OTT. “It is her choice; if she wants to stay or leave, I will support her decision. But we will look into this once I am out. We three will live together, even if God comes down, he cannot separate us,” Armaan reiterated.
Each twist and turn in this narrative keeps the viewers on the edge of their seats. The interactions among Armaan, Payal, and Kritika have given rise to multiple discussions about love, loyalty, and the boundaries of relationships.
As the show progresses, it remains to be seen how this trio will navigate their challenges and what further revelations will come to light. One thing is sure: Bigg Boss OTT 3 is far from over, and the intense scrutiny and the emotional upheavals faced by Kritika Malik, Armaan Malik, and Payal Malik will continue to be the focal point of this season.
