Andrew Symonds, Amar Upadhyay and Salman Khan in Bigg Boss house

Among the many surprises on Bigg Boss, the latest one included host Salman Khan stepping into the house, and meeting the housemates face to face. He interacted with everyone, and also gave them, especially Sky, a piece of his mind.

That did not go well with evicted housemate Pooja Bedi, who felt Salman was demoralising and lying to Sky. 

'Awesome how Salman told Sky that his jokes were awful and unappreciated, and then Sanjay told Sky to keep joking, that they were appreciated. Salman told Sky Sanjay would NOT forgive him for walking off last episode, &Sanjay smiled warmly at Sky & forgave him:) What;s Salman upto? It's clear Salman went in there to demoralise, confuse, hurt and lie to Sky. Any guesses as to why he would misuse his position to do so?' she tweeted.

Bedi's Twitter pal Farah Khan Ali was quick to clear her name and declare Sky as 'obnoxious'. 'To all those ppl out here who have an issue with @poojabeditweets ref her tweets on @BeingSalmanKhan . Pl dont tag my name. Im not involved. As far as my opinion on Sky aka Akash in #BB5. I think he is "obnoxious" . Thats my opinion. Also @poojabeditweets is an adult who has her own views. I may not agree with them & neither does she have 2 share my view. Each 2 their own,' she wrote.

Mini Mathur appreciated Salman's directness. 'I thought @BeingSalmanKhan was superb in Big Boss last night..spot on n direct!! Can't believe he walked in just to burst their bubble!' she updated.
