Ashneer Grover on Bigg Boss 19 ‘ Photograph: (IG/@Ashneer Grover)
Sharing the screenshot, Grover wrote,'' Haha! Salman bhai se pooch le!! Mai to free ho Jaauunga tab tak. (As Salman first, I will be free by then).
"Your dynamic personality, engaging social media presence, and unique appeal have caught the attention of our casting team, making you a strong candidate for this exciting role," read a part of the mail.
Taking a dig at the email, the entrepreneur and social media personality added that this mail merge error would “definitely cost someone their job.”
He had also shared the screenshot on X as well. But deleted it later.
The surprising part is that Grover is currently associated with another reality show. He's hosting Rise and Fall.
No statement has been shared by the Bigg Boss team.
All about the Salman Khan–Ashneer Grover controversy
The tension between Ashneer Grover and Salman Khan dates back years. He had always maintained a sarcastic tone whenever Bigg Boss or Salman Khan’s name came up, which is why his recent claim of being invited for a wildcard entry has caught everyone’s attention. Once, Ashneer, in an interview, claimed that the actor had refused to click a photo with him during a brand shoot. In Bigg Boss 18, Ashneer was called for a weekend special episode, where the actor schooled him over speaking against him. Later, he shared a long note for his appearance on the show.
