'Bigg Boss 19': Salman Khan says Pranit More has 'bajaoed me left, right and center'

Mumbai, Sep 22 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Salman Khan spoke about how contestant Pranit More’s standup jokes have been all about him to actress Kajol in the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode.

On September 21, Kajol and actor Jisshu Sengupta appeared on the controversial reality show Bigg Boss to promote their latest project “The Trial” Season 2. During the show, Kajol asked Salman if they could see the contestants, without them knowing they were watching them.

The video footage of the house gets on and the camera first pans to Tanya Mittal. Salman talks about her business of sarees and the actress hilariously says she wants her tailor’s number.

The camera then pans to Pranit More.

Talking about Pranit, Salman tells Kajol and Jisshu: “This guy is Pranit. He’s a standup comedian. He’s bajaoed me left right and center. Inke saare jokes mere pe hote hai (all his jokes are about me). Inka ghar mere pe chal raha hai (His home is running because of me). That’s why I said "karne do”.”

Last week’s contestants who were nominated for evictions include Abhishek Bajaj, Ashnoor Kaur, Nehal Chudasama, Baseer Ali or Pranit More.
