Bigg Boss 19: Farrhana Bhatt's Family Initiates Legal Action Against Amaal Mallik's Aunt Over 'Terrorist' Remark, Seek ₹1 Cr In Damages And Public Apology

Bigg Boss 19: The controversial show has stirred row outside the house as well. The family of contestant Farrhana Bhatt have initiated a legal suit against Roshan Garry Bhinder, the aunt of fellow contestant and singer Amaal Mallik. In the complaint, the family has alleged that Bhinder has labelled Farrhana a ‘terrorist’ while appearing on a YouTube channel. An X (formerly Twitter) account in Farrhana's name has confirmed the news that a notice has been sent and has also attached a copy of the same with the post.

Not just Roshan Garry Bhinder, Bhatt's family has also named YouTube and the channel Fifafooz as defendants in the case. In the demands, the family has listed ₹1 crore in damages and a public apology for the ‘reputational and emotional harm caused'. The family also seeks the immediate removal of the controversial video.
