So, on the very first "Weekend Ka Vaar" episode, which is when Salman Khan, the big host, comes and talks to the contestants, he totally went after Pranit. Like, full-on, guns blazing.

Basically, before Pranit even entered the Bigg Boss house, some old videos of his stand-up comedy started going viral. In these videos, he was, um, making fun of Salman Khan. You know, like, jokes about Salman's driving record, or his famous bracelet, or even his farmhouse. Some of these were a little, well, a little below the belt. Like, one joke was about how Salman "doesn't eat money, he eats people's careers," and he showed pictures of Vivek Oberoi and Arijit Singh. Oof.

So Salman, during the show, brought this all up. He told Pranit, "I know what you've said about me, which isn't right." He then asked Pranit what he would do if their roles were reversed and Pranit was the host and Salman was the contestant making those jokes.

Then, here's the part that got everyone talking. Salman, like, took a deep breath and said something like, "Even Kapil Sharma and Krushna Abhishek do comedy, but not like this." He was basically saying that Pranit's humor was too personal and inappropriate. He said that Kapil and Krushna, who are also famous comedians, keep it classy, but Pranit had crossed a line. Salman also said that if you go "below the belt" with your jokes in the house, the other contestants won't accept it, because they're not as "understanding" as him. He was really miffed, you could tell. He even accused Pranit of only joking at Tanya, another contestant, because she just sits there and takes it.

The whole thing was super awkward. Pranit looked like he wanted to disappear into the floor. He tried to explain himself, but it was clear that Salman was not having it. He gave all the contestants a "wake-up call" and said they were all just lazy and only cared about "Main aur khaana," which means "me and food." He even scolded some other guy, Abhishek, for not making his bed. It was a really intense episode.

So, yeah, that's what happened. Pranit More got a serious scolding from Salman Khan on national TV because of his old jokes. It's a real reminder that in the Bigg Boss house, your past can definitely come back to haunt you.
