After stirring up controversies in Bigg Boss 14, actress Nikki Tamboli has joined Bigg Boss Marathi 5 and continues to attract attention for all the wrong reasons. In a recent episode, host Riteish Deshmukh reprimanded her for her behavior, culminating in an apology to the entire state of Maharashtra. Nikki has been at odds with co-contestant Varsha Usgaonkar and other housemates since the first day, leading to several heated confrontations throughout the week.
During the "Bhaucha Dhakka" episode, Riteish criticized Nikki for her disrespect towards Varsha, a respected senior actress in the Marathi film industry. Although Riteish acknowledged that Nikki’s points might have been valid, he condemned the manner in which she expressed them, calling it extremely inappropriate and unacceptable. He further criticized her for tarnishing the image of the 'Marathi maanus' (Marathi person) with her conduct inside the house.
Riteish stated, "You might think this is your style and swag, but it is just your arrogance. Who are you? What do you think of yourself? You have raised questions on the behavior of a Marathi maanus with your conduct. You have to apologize to each and every Marathi maanus on national television." His scolding left Nikki in tears, and she apologized to the people of Maharashtra for her behavior. She also promised to be more mindful of her words and actions in the future.
Riteish didn't stop at Nikki; he also called out Varsha Usgaonkar for exacerbating conflicts rather than trying to resolve them. This incident adds to Nikki's controversial reputation, which was established during her time on Bigg Boss 14. Though she reached the finals, she was often in the spotlight for her behavior and frequent disputes with fellow contestants, leading to multiple reprimands from host Salman Khan.
Nikki's participation in Bigg Boss Marathi 5 seems to be following a similar trajectory. Her interactions with other housemates and her overall demeanor have once again made her a polarizing figure. Despite being one of the most talked-about contestants, her fame is largely due to her contentious behavior rather than any positive contributions to the show.
Nikki's journey in Bigg Boss Marathi 5 has been tumultuous, marked by confrontations and controversy. Riteish Deshmukh’s intervention highlights the importance of respectful conduct and the impact of one’s behavior on public perception, especially on a platform as influential as Bigg Boss. As Nikki promises to amend her ways, viewers will be watching to see if she can turn her controversial stint into one of redemption and positive change.
