Bigg Boss 19: Amaal Mallik opens up on lowest phase of life during Covid, breaks down
Mumbai, Oct 25
Music composer and Bigg Boss 19 contestant Amaal Mallik recently opened his heart out by talking about one of the most painful and emotionally low phases of his life during an emotional conversation with Ashnoor Kaur while inside the house.
Amaal described that period as the lowest point of his life. While talking to Ashnoor Kaur, Amaal said, '2020-2021-2022-2023-2024, those were very bad years for me. I lost my pet, lost a few friends, Covid happened, and a 6-7 year relationship came to an end. Further elaborating on losing his pet Handsome, Amaal said, 'When I lost Handsome, it was the worst phase.'
He also added that his mother had told him to visit his pet dog when he was sick, but Amaal couldn't bring himself to meet him. Ashnoor, who was seen lending an ear to Amaal, went ahead and tried to console him after he broek down. For the uninitiated, Amaal keeps a photo frame of himself with Handsome beside his bed in the Bigg Boss house.
He has time and again said that the photo of his late companion is a source of his industry during his BB 19 journey. Talking about Amaal Mallik's game, recently his friendship with co-contestant Tanya Mittal seems to have now hit rock bottom.
While Tanya and her friend Neelam had a massive showdown, in which instead of offering support, Amaal appeared detached from Tanya.
He was heard saying that Tanya was an attention seeker and would probably be happy now that everyone is talking about her, while coming out in support of Neelam.
His words deeply hurt Tanya, who had earlier been one of his biggest emotional supporters in the house.

Covid was tough for everyone, but celebrities opening up about their mental health struggles helps normalize these conversations. However, I feel Amaal shouldn't have turned against Tanya after she supported him emotionally. That's not how friendship works yaar.
The guilt of not visiting his pet when he was sick must be eating him up. As pet parents, we always feel we could have done more. Hope he finds peace and healing through this Bigg Boss journey. ðŸ¾
While I sympathize with his personal struggles, the way he treated Tanya shows poor character. Emotional support should be a two-way street. You can't just take and not give back in relationships.
Bigg Boss house is like a pressure cooker! People's true colors come out. Amaal's emotional breakdown shows he's human, but his behavior with Tanya is disappointing. Hope he realizes his mistake and apologizes.
The pandemic years were brutal globally. Lost my job in 2021 and went through depression. Seeing successful people like Amaal also struggle makes me feel less alone. Mental health matters, regardless of status or wealth.
