Ever since Bigg Boss 19 premiered officially, the reality show has taken over the internet, and this time, it’s the host Salman Khan who took the lead. Known for his Weekend Ka Vaar sessions, Salman didn’t hold back in the latest episode as he addressed the drama happening inside the house. While most of his criticism was directed at the contestants, one particular comment during the episode grabbed everyone’s attention.

Salman Khan's comment at Weekend Ka Vaar went viral

During his interaction, Salman took contestant Farhana Bhatt to task. Farhana, who calls herself a peace activist, was called out for doing the opposite of what her title suggests. Salman pointed out how she was often seen instigating fights and creating unnecessary issues. He said, "Ye ho kya raha hai? Puri duniya mein jo sabse zyada trouble faila rahe hain, unko hi peace prize chahiye (A peace activist is supposed to resolve conflicts and bring people together. But what's happening? Around the world, those who create the most trouble are the ones demanding peace prizes)."



Though he didn’t name anyone directly, many believed this wasn’t just about Farhana, it seemed like a clever swipe at a global political figure. That the chatter reached Reddit, and this is how they reacted.

Netizens were quick to connect the dots and assumed that Salman’s statement was an indirect dig at former US President Donald Trump. One user wrote, “Salman was bashing Farhana but ended up roasting Trump too. Collateral damage.” Another joked, “Waiting for Trump’s reaction to Salman bhai’s Weekend Ka Vaar.” Memes and reaction clips flooded X (formerly Twitter), with users expressing amusement that Salman made such a bold statement. Some were even surprised, saying they didn’t expect the actor to keep up with international news.
