In an interview with The Indian Express, Vishal Pandey discussed his connections within the BB OTT house and whether befriending Lovekesh Kataria was a mistake.

It felt bad when he brought up that incident in the task, but I gave him that freedom. When I learned that my parents were okay about it, I didn’t get bothered if they spoke about the incident.”

Mentally I was just not there in the game. I just kept thinking what people would be saying about my character outside, what would my parents think. Payal Malik had twisted the words. I didn’t remember what I said. There was a point I wondered if I was wrong. It was all very traumatizing.”

Vishal Pandey clarifies that he never checked out Kritika Malik
Vishal Pandey justified his offensive statement about Kritika Malik and denied checking her out. He also added that Armaan is very fortunate to have two caring spouses, thus he was emphasizing the same. Vishal stated that the incident had a negative impact on his image,
“You can call Bhagyashali Bhaiyya to anyone. I had clarified this to Sana Makbul too. I looked at Kritika to check if she was gone. I never checked her out. I do feel Armaan is very lucky to have not one but two such caring wives. People were not understanding that they were character assassinating me. It has damaged my image a lot. I still don’t get why Armaan was not pulled up for this. Even Chandrika’s involvement in that matter was unnecessary.”
