The latest Weekend Ka Vaar on Bigg Boss 20 gave viewers an unexpectedly tender moment. Singer Mohit Chauhan visited the Diwali special and sang a song linked to Salim Khan’s early career. Salman Khan teared up in front of everyone as the melody filled the stage.
How Salman Khan Reacted to Mohit Chauhan on Stage
As reported by India Today, Mohit Chauhan appeared on the Weekend Ka Vaar as a guest singer. He opened playfully and told Salman Khan that he was a great admirer of his work. Then he added a twist by saying, “But I’m an even bigger fan of your father.” That remark changed the mood of the conversation because the praise suddenly turned towards his father.
Soon after, Chauhan sang “Mujhe Tumse Mohabbat Hai, Magar Main Kah Nahi Sakta” from the 1963 film Bachpan. Mohammed Rafi had recorded the original, and Salim Khan appeared in the movie as an actor. The song came from his father’s early years as an actor, which gave the whole moment a quiet weight.
Salman fought to stay composed as the song carried on, and his tears were hard to miss. The reaction looked genuine, and that probably explains why the clip drew such attention from fans. In a season shaped by arguments and eliminations, this quiet musical tribute gave viewers something different to remember.
Why the Song Meant So Much to Salman Khan
The song carried extra weight because Salim Khan played the main role in Bachpan. Back then, his acting career had yet to take off. Most of his early films, beginning with Baaraat in 1960, failed to find an audience. Soon his career headed in another direction, towards writing. For a son standing on that stage, hearing the song live clearly stirred strong memories.
Fans mostly know Salim Khan as one half of the celebrated writing duo Salim-Javed. So the choice reminded viewers of an earlier phase, when he worked in front of the camera instead. Helen had a brief part in Bachpan, and she became his wife some years later.
Salman Khan has spoken about his father on the show before. Earlier this season, he told the contestants about a period of heavy negativity around him. He also recalled the advice Salim Khan gave him during that time, so Mohit’s tribute landed on familiar ground.
What Else Happened in the Bigg Boss 20 House
Not everything on the stage was gentle, though. Gaurav Gupta, a comic guest, aimed his humour at the housemates. One punchline poked at the recent row between Scout OP and Luv Gill, and both reacted sharply. Gill pushed back on the spot, arguing that private matters were off limits for a punchline. Scout then voiced a similar objection to Gupta’s act.
Gupta did not stop there, and the other housemates laughed through the remainder of his act. Karan Johar and Shanaya Kapoor were also among the guests who dropped by the house this season. As a result, the Diwali weekend moved quickly between warmth, tension and humour.
Meanwhile, the house keeps getting emptier as the weeks pass. Mary Kom, Aman Gandhi, Riti Tiwari, Isha Rikhi and Roheed Khan have all gone home. Asif Khan was the latest to exit last week, and reports say he fell short on votes. Talk now centres on Manish Goyal, who entered midway through the show and may be next to go. Fans will soon find out whether that buzz holds up.
