**MUMBAI** – Former Shark Tank India judge and BharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover faced a grilling from Bollywood superstar Salman Khan on the reality show Bigg Boss 18. The encounter, which quickly went viral on social media, saw Khan confront Grover over previous disparaging remarks about the actor.
Khan directly addressed Grover’s comments made in a podcast, where Grover reportedly discussed Salman Khan’s brand ambassador fee for BharatPe. Khan challenged Grover’s account of the negotiations, highlighting discrepancies in the figures Grover had publicized. “You said, ‘We have signed him for this much,’ and you gave the wrong figures. So what is this double standard?” Khan reportedly asked.
Grover responded in a noticeably subdued manner, praising Khan’s appointment as a brand ambassador as a shrewd business decision. Khan pointed out the contrast between Grover’s demeanor on the show and his previous, more outspoken statements.
Social media exploded with reactions to the tense exchange, with many users commenting on Grover’s unusually humble attitude and suggesting he was intimidated by Khan. Several netizens also recalled similar criticisms Grover had leveled against other celebrities, including Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma. The incident has sparked a wider discussion about Grover’s public image and his appearances on reality television.
