During the Weekend Ka Vaar episode, host Salman Khan took strict note of Aasif's behaviour, aggression, and complaints. He said Aasif was the ‘epitome of badtameezi (impoliteness)’ and added, “Are you the same at home? Who is there at home? I can guarantee that you will never show this side in front of your mother and sisters. Will they not see this show then? And you have this aggression, where you charge at people. Look at yourself first, so that you don't fall. Because I don't see any skill to impress the person in front of you. This is not even allowed here, and what is this that Bigg Boss is biased?”

‘Yeh hekdi kahan se aati hai?’

(Whenever you make a mistake, all four of you say that Bigg Boss is biased. Who was discussing the nominations? This rule was always there, not just here but on Big Brother too. First, you make a mistake, and then you try to hide it when Bigg Boss shows the clip. What is wrong with accepting the mistake? That too, when you know you're wrong, and still challenge it. Is everyone so foolish over here? It's bulls**t to say others also must have done it, but it isn't being shown. The show is on 24/7, except for the abusive words; it's always on. Bigg Boss treats everyone equally. If this show becomes a success, it's to your benefit.)

Aasif was in tears after Salman's scolding and wondered why he was the only one being called impolite when others were there too. He then said that he wants to leave the show.
