The 16th season of the controversial reality show, Bigg Boss premiered on October 2, 2022, leaving its massive fanbase across the country delighted. However, just like every previous season of Bigg Boss, the 16th season also brought a lot of celebrities, whose inclusion in the show created a lot of controversy in the media. One such contestant was famous producer and director, Sajid Khan, who was accused by six actresses during the #MeToo movement back in October 2018.
For the uninitiated, the six actresses, who accused Sajid Khan of sexual misconduct were the likes of Paula, Saloni Chopra, Rachel White, Aahana Kumar, Mandana Karimi, and an unnamed female journalist. However, with time, everyone made peace with his participation in Bigg Boss 16. In the show's latest episode, he was age-shamed by co-contestant, Archana Gautam, and it is now the talk of the town.

In the latest episode of Bigg Boss 16, Archana Gautam indulged in an intense war of words with co-contestant and house captain, Sajid Khan. The actress refused to complete her house duties and told Sajid and the other contestants in the show that she would not wake up and fulfil her assigned duties. When the actress was asked to reveal the reason behind such arrogant behaviour, Archana stated that she was unwell. However, when Shiv Thakare and Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia went to check on her, they found that she was lying. After that, all the house members threw all her clothes in the jail area. That reaction of the housemates made Archana furious, and she asked Nimrit and Shiv to name the people, who threw her clothes out of her bag. She said:
"Who opened my bag and kept them out? I want to know so that if Salman Khan Sir asks me in Weekend Ka Vaar, I should be able to say."
In response to Archana Gautam's query, both Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia and Shiv Thakare responded with expressions and didn't name anyone. When things started heating between Shiv and Archana, it was the house captain, Sajid Khan, who intervened and told Shiv not to indulge in a fight with her. The producer also took a dig at Archana in front of everyone and said, "She is living like a maharani and thinks rest are her helpers. If she wants to fight let her bring it on." The comment irked Archana even more, and she went on to age-shame Sajid in front of everyone. From calling him 'buddha' to making fun of his blood pressure problem, Archana crossed the line, which turned many viewers against her. She said:
"Aaaya kyu budhape me Bigg Boss, jab BP ka problem hai. Jawano ka show hai Bigg Boss budhape me kyu aaya Bigg Boss."

For the uninitiated, Sajid Khan requested medical attention a few weeks back after his blood pressure had gone high during an intense fight with Archana Gautam. It'll be interesting to see how the show's host, Salman Khan will handle this matter of age-shaming inside the Bigg Boss house. Over the years, we have seen contestants getting grilled by Salman for crossing the line or going below the belt in their war of words. Well, this was certainly the case and that too with the house captain, Sajid, who was telling Archana to fulfil her house duties just like any other contestant inside the BB house.
