Did Awez Darbar pay ₹2cr penalty to leave 'Bigg Boss'?
What's the story
Social media influencer Awez Darbar, who recently exited Bigg Boss 19, has refuted rumors that he paid a ₹2 crore penalty to leave the show. In an interview with Hindustan Times, he said, "I never took a voluntary exit." "I didn't walk out, nor did I pay anything to Bigg Boss to leave the game." "I don't even know how these false stories started in the first place."
Unexpected exit
'I didn't give anything...': Darbar
Darbar was reportedly shocked by his exit from the show, saying, "People were saying that I gave ₹50 lakh, ₹2 crore and took a voluntary exit, all of this is completely false." "I didn't give anything. I myself was shocked at my elimination." "If I had left voluntarily, then why would my family and I have been so stunned?" He added that everyone in his family was crying when he returned home after the eviction.
Timing questioned
His sister-in-law made a guest appearance before his eviction
Darbar was especially surprised by his exit as it came just after his sister-in-law, actor Gauahar Khan, made a guest appearance. "That was the biggest shocker for me. Gauahar, my bhabhi, came into the show and the same week I am out." "Why would you call her to the show when they were planning all this?"
Show impact
'What is Neelam Giri even doing in the game?'
Darbar said his mind went "blank" when his name was announced for eviction. He still believes that he didn't deserve to be eliminated. "I genuinely thought I had performed better than them. What is Neelam (Giri) even doing in the game?" Despite this, he has taken away valuable lessons from the show. "If I ever get another opportunity, I would go back without a second thought." Bigg Boss 19 airs on JioHotstar and Colors TV.
