Qazi Touqeer's team is pushing back against the backlash over his 'lollipop' remark to Kanika Mann on Bigg Boss 20, insisting the comment was harmless and taken out of context. India Today reported that the exchange happened during a classroom roleplay task where Qazi, playing a biology student, made the suggestive comment to Kanika, who walked away visibly uncomfortable. Qazi's supporters argue Salman Khan addressed and explained the joke on the show itself, and that Kanika later acknowledged the misunderstanding.
But Kanika has since objected to Qazi repeating the joke after she expressed discomfort, questioning his claim that it was merely about candy. His team has turned the tables, accusing Kanika and Amrapali Dubey of repeatedly targeting him and keeping the controversy alive rather than moving forward.
The Classroom Moment That Sparked Outrage
The remark came during a task where Qazi played a biology student and Kanika was his teacher. After mentioning his biology background, Qazi said, 'You are so beautiful ma'am...can we have lollipop together?' Kanika immediately walked away, signaling her discomfort with the comment. Pink Villa noted that the moment quickly became a point of tension in the house.
Salman Khan later confronted Qazi about the remark during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode. According to Pragati Vadi, Salman questioned whether Qazi's intention was appropriate, though reports suggest the host also acknowledged the comment was made as part of a character portrayal rather than a direct personal jab.
Qazi's Team Claims Misunderstanding and Context Loss
Qazi's supporters argue the comment was part of the character he was playing, not a personal attack. They point out that Salman Khan explained this on air and that Kanika herself later said she understood it was a joke. Business Upturn reported that the team views the ongoing criticism as blown out of proportion and motivated by other house tensions.
However, Qazi's team questions why he should continue defending a remark that many viewers found suggestive. They argue the real issue is that Kanika objected after the fact, when she had initially laughed or played along during the task itself.
Kanika Stands Firm Over Repeated Disrespect
Kanika has pushed back against Qazi's explanation, saying the real problem is that he repeated the joke even after she made clear it made her uncomfortable. She questioned his claim that the remark was simply about candy, pointing to its suggestive tone and its odd connection to his 'biology student' character setup.
She also brought up a separate incident during Rhiti Tiwari's diss battle, where Qazi became visibly agitated when Rhiti used a particular word. Kanika asked why he had that reaction if he truly didn't have suggestive intent behind his own remarks.
Team Accusations Turn Focus to Others' Behavior
Qazi's team has accused Kanika and Amrapali Dubey of using the 'lollipop' remark as a weapon to repeatedly target him and keep the issue alive. They also challenged Kanika over an alleged shift in her position on a house task, suggesting her credibility in calling out Qazi may be inconsistent.
The team also pointed out that Amrapali's objection to the word seems selective, noting her association with the Bhojpuri song 'Lollipop Lagelu.' This counter-attack has reignited debate over the remark's true intent and context within the house dynamics.
