Vishal Pandey reveals if he regrets his friendship with Lovekesh Kataria
In an interview with The Indian Express, Vishal Pandey opened up about his friendships inside the BB OTT house and revealed whether befriending Lovekesh Kataria was a mistake. Talking about it, Vishal disagreed and said that there was only one incident where Lovekesh didn’t take a stand for him. He added that his parents were okay with Lovekesh’s decision so he also didn’t mind. He said:
“There was an incident where he didn’t take a stand for me. I felt very bad about it. But if one thing has gone wrong, he has done 10 things right too. So I look at those, and not that one incident. It felt bad when he brought up that incident in the task, but I gave him that freedom. When I learned that my parents were okay about it, I didn’t get bothered if they spoke about the incident.”

Vishal Pandey talks about his rivalry with Armaan Malik
There is no denying that Vishal Pandey’s biggest rivalry on the show was with Armaan Malik. The duo indulged in name-calling, and Armaan even slapped Vishal for his comments about his wife, Kritika Malik. Recalling their bitter equation, Vishal mentioned that Armaan is insecure about him and said:
“Our bitter equation started on day two itself. I didn’t like his vibe because he spoke a lot about the game. Later, when I nominated him, things got bad. Then I figured he was two-faced. He is insecure of me. He lost topic for his content after my eviction. His entire game revolved around me. I could see his insecurity in everything.”
Vishal Pandey recalls his slap controversy with Armaan Malik
For the uninitiated, after Armaan learned about Vishal’s remarks about his wife, Kritika Malik, he slapped the latter out of anger. Recalling the incident, Vishal said that the Weekend Ka Vaar was very heavy for him as he had been being bashed since morning, and later got slapped. He shared that he kept thinking about what people would be thinking about his character and added:
“That Weekend Ka Vaar was very heavy for me. I was being bashed since morning and it ended with the slap. But the name calling hadn’t stopped, I was zoned out for 3-4 days. Mentally I was just not there in the game. I just kept thinking what people would be saying about my character outside, what would my parents think. Payal Malik had twisted the words. I didn’t remember what I said. There was a point I wondered if I was wrong. It was all very traumatizing.”

Vishal Pandey clarifies he never checked out Kritika Malik
Vishal Pandey defended his sexist remark about Kritika Malik and refuted the accusations of checking her out. He also mentioned that Armaan is very lucky to have two caring wives so he was pointing out the same. Talking about the damage the incident caused to his image, Vishal said:
“You can call Bhagyashali Bhaiyya to anyone. I had clarified this to Sana Makbul too. I looked at Kritika to check if she was gone. I never checked her out. I do feel Armaan is very lucky to have not one but two such caring wives. People were not understanding that they were character assassinating me. It has damaged my image a lot. I still don’t get why Armaan was not pulled up for this. Even Chandrika’s involvement in that matter was unnecessary.”
