She indirectly indicated to Qazi Touqeer that she wanted some privacy, and Mahhi helped communicate the message to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qazi subsequently left the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After he had gone, Mahhi made a light-hearted remark about the situation, referring to the possibility of Qazi wanting to see Amrapali wearing a saree and using the word \u201cBhabhi\u201d during the joke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The remark caught Amrapali&#8217;s attention, particularly because of the cultural significance associated with the term among Bhojpuri audiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Amrapali Explains Her Concern to Mahhi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amrapali chose to address the matter privately with Mahhi rather than allow it to become a larger misunderstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She explained that her concern was mainly about how viewers familiar with Bhojpuri culture could interpret the joke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYaar Mahhi ji, Bhojpuri culture mein bhabhi ji wala mazaak&#8230; woh log offence na lein bas,\u201d Amrapali told her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her comments made it clear that she was thinking about the reaction of her audience rather than accusing Mahhi of deliberately making an offensive statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mahhi Vij Says There Was No Negative Intent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mahhi subsequently clarified what she meant by the remark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She explained that she understood the cultural meaning of the word and did not use it with any intention of disrespect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMujhe pata hai bhabhi maa samaan hoti hai,\u201d Mahhi said during the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The clarification helped put the exchange into context, with Mahhi maintaining that the comment had been made purely in a playful spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Amrapali and Mahhi Address Bhojpuri Viewers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two actors later addressed the issue together and made their position clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mahhi explained that her use of \u201cBhabhi\u201d was not intended as a reference to or criticism of the Bhojpuri industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGuys, maine bhabhi Bhojpuri ke usme nahi bola. Main sirf masti kar rahi thi,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amrapali also joined the clarification and expressed affection towards viewers who identify with the culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe love our Bhabhis and Bhaujis. We genuinely love you,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amrapali further explained that \u201cBhabhi\u201d is traditionally used as a respectful form of address in Bhojpuri culture and is also commonly heard in Bhojpuri entertainment and songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By addressing the matter directly, the two actors made it clear that the exchange was not intended to insult Bhojpuri culture, its audience or anyone associated with the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bigg Boss 20 Continues to Generate Housemate Conversations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident is another example of how even casual conversations inside the&nbsp;<em>Bigg Boss<\/em>&nbsp;house can quickly become significant because of the show&#8217;s diverse group of contestants and large television audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Amrapali and Mahhi, however, the issue ended with a clarification rather than a prolonged disagreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their conversation also highlighted the importance of cultural context, particularly when a word or joke can carry different meanings depending on the audience interpreting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When and Where to Watch Bigg Boss 20<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted by Salman Khan,&nbsp;<em>Bigg Boss 20<\/em>&nbsp;premiered on September 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New episodes of the reality show are available daily on JioHotstar at 9 pm and are also broadcast on Colors TV at 10:30 pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A casual joke involving the word \u201cBhabhi\u201d led to a conversation between Amrapali Dubey and Mahhi Vij inside the&nbsp;Bigg Boss 20&nbsp;house, with the two actors later clarifying that there was no intention to offend Bhojpuri audiences or the industry.
