In the latest episode of Bigg Boss Season 17, the spotlight fell on the tumultuous relationship of celebrity couple Ankita Lokhande and Vicky Jain as their family members made a surprise entrance into the house after nearly 13 weeks. A dramatic turn came when Ankita and Vicky's mothers engaged with them in a brief, candid conversation about the couple's relationship.

During the discussion, Vicky's mother levelled several allegations against Ankita, accusing her of being disrespectful towards her son. The intensity of the conversation prompted Bigg Boss to intervene, suggesting a private discussion in the therapy room between Vicky's mom and Ankita. Emotions ran high as Ankita tearfully apologised to both Vicky and his mother multiple times.

Now, in a new promo, renowned filmmaker Karan Johar weighed in on the situation as he took on the job of host Salman Khan. Johar took Vicky to task for not standing up for his wife during the confrontation with his mother.

"Vicky aapki maa Ankita ko aake sawal poochti hai tab ek pati hone ke naate aapko unke peeche khade rehna chahiye (Vicky, your mother questioned Ankita and as a husband you should have taken a stand for her)," Johar asserted.

Curious about the details of the discussion, Vicky inquired about the conversation between Ankita and his mother. Ankita shared, "Meri mummy ko aap ke papa ne phone kiya tha: 'Aap aapke pati ko aisi maarti thi kya'. (Papa called my mom and asked: 'You used to hit your husband like this')."

That left both Vicky and Ankita visibly disturbed.

The tension escalated when Vicky criticised Ankita, claiming that her actions were not suitable for national television and questioning when she would realize the impact of her behaviour. "What would your father would have said? Aap kahin pe apni koi cheez sambhal nahi paati voh national television pe sahi nahi dikh raha hai. Aap kab samjhogi uss baat ko. (You cannot handle your actions and that is not looking right on national television. When will you understand this)."

The ongoing struggles in Ankita and Vicky's marriage have been a recurring theme on Bigg Boss 17, with the couple receiving advice and guidance from various quarters, including Salman Khan and their respective mothers.

The couple's relationship has faced continuous challenges, with Ankita expressing dissatisfaction with Vicky's perceived lack of emotional support, while Vicky feels misunderstood and mistreated by Ankita. Vicky's mother specifically confronted Ankita about her alleged use of profanity and throwing footwear at Vicky, citing a complaint from Vicky's father.

Amidst the turmoil, Ankita and Vicky contemplated taking a break from their marriage, but the discussion on this matter has yet to reach a conclusion. The unique dynamics of the Bigg Boss house, coupled with the involvement of other contestants, have added complexity to the couple's journey, leaving viewers eagerly awaiting further developments in this unfolding saga.
