Tanya Mittal Exposed: Neelam Giri Calls Out ‘Doglapanti’

The simmering tensions in the Bigg Boss 19 house have finally boiled over, leading to the explosive dissolution of one of the season’s seemingly strongest friendships. Contestant Neelam Giri publicly and tearfully confronted her close ally, Tanya Mittal, over allegations of “double-faced” behaviour, declaring, “Dosti Humari Khatam” (Our friendship is over).

The dramatic confrontation, which has now divided the entire house, was reportedly triggered by Tanya’s growing closeness to fellow housemate Farrhana Bhatt. Neelam’s ongoing and intense rivalry with Farrhana, particularly after an emotional task where Farrhana shredded a letter meant for Neelam from her family, served as the breaking point.

A Friendship on Trial

In an emotionally charged moment that has become the highlight of the upcoming episode, Neelam cornered Tanya, demanding an explanation for her actions. “I cannot stand any kind of double-faced behaviour in a friendship,” an upset Neelam stated firmly, adding, “For me, friendship ends right there when that happens.” The Hindi term used for the double-faced conduct was the highly charged word, ‘doglapanti‘ or ‘dogla dosti’.

The core of Neelam’s grievance was Tanya’s continued communication with Farrhana, the person she accused of causing her the most emotional pain in the house. “Tell me why you talk to her. She is the one who has made me cry the most in this house, so why do you go and talk to her?” Neelam questioned her friend.

Tanya, visibly taken aback but equally resolute, did not back down, immediately accepting the finality of the split. “Alright then, our friendship is over from today as well,” she retorted, drawing a clear line in the sand between the two.

Housemates Take Sides

What began as a personal fallout quickly escalated into a house-wide crisis, with contestants forced to weigh in on the drama. Many housemates swiftly rallied behind Neelam, casting a shadow of doubt over Tanya’s sincerity. Music composer Amaal Mallik was quick to side with Neelam, questioning Tanya’s loyalty: “If she can’t be loyal to Neelam, why would she be loyal to us?”

The situation further deteriorated as another housemate, Mridul Tiwari, added fuel to the fire by exposing private conversations with Tanya where she allegedly made critical remarks about other contestants, including Neelam herself. According to Mridul’s stunning revelation, Tanya had implied that “Neelam gets noticed only because of her night talks with Tanya.”

This public exposure of Tanya’s alleged behind-the-scenes commentary turned the personal fight into a major trust crisis, leading Nehal Chudasama to mock Tanya, tagging her as a “terrible woman” and accusing her of preparing to “play the victim card.”

Cornered and emotional, Tanya finally snapped at the accusations, especially from Nehal, yelling for her to be quiet. Despite her attempts to defend herself, the collective criticism has significantly weakened Tanya’s position, painting her as a calculated strategist in the eyes of many.

The implosion of the Neelam-Tanya friendship marks a significant shift in the internal politics of Bigg Boss 19, proving that in the ruthless environment of the house, even the closest bonds can shatter under the weight of strategic alliances and personal betrayal. The coming episodes are now set to explore the fallout, with new rivalries and unexpected loyalties likely to emerge.
