During Bigg Boss 15’s first Weekend Ka Vaar episode, host Salman Khan scolded contestant Pratik Sehajpal for his aggressive behaviour and advised him to remain calm. This advice proved to have done wonders for the contestant as he shined in the second week of the show. He also got validation for the same from Salman Khan, which has left his fans delighted. 

Several of Pratik’s fans shared their excitement on Twitter.

“I didn’t see the episode but I saw the tweets right now!! I am very happy !! Pratik ko praise kia Salman Khan ne it’s a big day guys !!” one person wrote. 

“Salman Khan appreciated Pratik for improving this week.
Pheli baar aaya m, tho maine kaha pratik you don’t behave like this. Pratik ne baat sun li” another person wrote. 

“Salman Khan praising Pratik and telling him that only he listened to his advice. Check how happy Pratik was when he heard it,” wrote another person. 

In the first week, Pratik, who was also a part of Bigg Boss OTT, found himself embroiled in several fights and controversies.

One particular episode that caused quite a stir was when he broke a bathroom lock while co-contestant Vidhi Pandya was taking a bath. And, when he was asked if he would have done the same thing given his mother or sister were inside the bathroom, he replied, “Yes.”

This did not go down too well with Salman, who slammed Pratik for the same.

“Pratik, you are looking like a fool. If someone says even if my mother or sister were in the washroom and I would have still done it for the game, so game is above mother and sister? Had Vidhi wanted, she would have thrashed you,” Salman told Pratik.

Salman also hinted that he wouldn’t have tolerated it if it were his sister in place of Vidhi.

After Salman rebuked Pratik, the latter’s fans showed their support for their favourite contestant and started trending ‘Stay Strong Pratik’ on Twitter.
