Salman Khan returned to Bigg Boss 18 days after the passing of his close friend, Nationalist Congress Party leader Baba Siddique. In the latest episode, the actor confessed that he didn't want to return to the show, but his professional obligations compelled him to do so. The superstar revealed that he didn't feel like interacting with anyone, given the challenging circumstances he was facing.

During the episode, Khan had a heart-to-heart with contestant Shilpa Shirodkar, who had been distressed and stopped eating following a disagreement with fellow contestant Avinash Mishra. Shirodkar became emotional, and Khan attempted to offer her guidance. He inquired how she would feel if her daughter expressed anger by refusing to eat. Shirodkar clarified that her frustration stemmed from Mishra's behavior, not the food.

Khan then counseled her, "Feeling se koi rishta aapka iss ghar mein hona hi nahi chahiye. (Feelings should not influence the game.)" Delving into his own emotions, he stated, "Aaj ki meri yeh feeling hai ki mujhe yahan aana hi nahi chahiye tha. But yeh ek commitment hai, isliye main yahan pe aaya hoon (Today, I feel like I shouldn't have come here, but it's a commitment, so I came)." "What all I'm going through in my life, and I have to come and manage this," the actor added.

Meanwhile, heightened security measures have been implemented at the residence of the Bollywood star following fresh death threats demanding an extortion payment of Rs50 million (Dh2 million). This incident occurs in the wake of the October 12 murder of Siddique.
