Bigg Boss 18 brims with drama as Salman Khan gives reality check to Karan Veer Mehra on his two divorces

Bigg Boss 18 is truly delivering on the drama front! This week, contestant Karan Veer Mehra found himself in the hot seat, facing the iconic Weekend Ka Vaar session with none other than Salman Khan. In a clip shared by ColorsTV on Instagram, Salman gave Karan Veer a harsh dose of reality, leaving fans buzzing. The caption teased, “Karanveer ne kiya harsh truth ka samnaa, jab mila unko Salman Khan se reality check,” translating to “Karanveer faced harsh truth when he got a reality check from Salman Khan.”?

About Karan Veer's divorces

As if things weren’t heated enough, housemate Eisha Singh threw more fuel on the fire. After Karan Veer subtly hinted at her possible “link-up” with contestant Avinash Mishra, Eisha clapped back by bringing up Karan Veer’s two divorces. Talk about drama! In a reflective moment later, Karan Veer opened up to Shrutika, admitting he felt incapable of “holding a family together”—a realization that, he said, has haunted him outside the house as well. Overcome by emotion, he excused himself, saying he needed a moment to cool down and “wash his face.”

Salman Khan didn’t hold back, calling out Karan Veer for his repeated inability to hold families together, both outside and now within the Bigg Boss house. He pointed out Karan’s struggle to follow through, challenging him to stop lurking in the shadows and instead confront things openly for all to see. The message was clear: no more hiding; it’s time for Karan Veer to face the truth, right in front of everyone.

This isn’t the first time Karan Veer has been in the spotlight, though his journey here might be one of his most personal. Known for winning Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, he’s also graced Bollywood films like Ragini MMS 2, Mere Dad Ki Maruti, and Blood Money. However, his off-screen life has been no less dramatic. Karan Veer married Devika Mehra in 2009, but they split in 2018. His second marriage to Nidhi Seth also met a similar fate, ending just two years after their 2021 wedding.

Salman Khan returns to work amid death threats

Salman Khan, too, is navigating his own challenges while hosting Bigg Boss 18. Last week, just days after the tragic death of his close friend, NCP leader Baba Siddique, Salman returned to the show, albeit reluctantly. He admitted during the episode that he’d rather not be on set but was honoring his work commitments. His security, meanwhile, is tighter than ever, with 60 personnel securing the premises, restricted access for outsiders, and mandatory Aadhar checks at entry points.

With emotions running high and the stakes intensifying both inside and outside the Bigg Boss house, this season is shaping up to be one of the most dramatic yet. Fans are in for a rollercoaster as contestants, and even Salman himself, grapple with their inner battles on screen.
