As Bigg Boss 19 continues to spark headlines with every episode, a new controversy took social media by storm—claims that contestants Baseer Ali and Farhana Bhatt allegedly knew each other prior to entering the reality show.

In response to the growing speculation, Baseer Ali’s team took to Instagram Stories to issue an official clarification and shut down the rumours.

The statement read, “We would like to clarify the ongoing rumors regarding Baseer and Farhana. It has come to our attention that some claims suggest that they knew each other prior to entering Bigg Boss house. We want to clarify that this is completely false. Baseer and Farhana did not have any connection before the show. We kindly request everyone to avoid spreading or believing in such baseless rumours.”

The clarification comes amid rising curiosity from fans who have been closely observing the dynamic between Baseer and Farhana inside the house. However, the team has firmly denied any pre-show acquaintance, requesting the public to refrain from fueling unverified narratives.

So far, neither Farhana Bhatt nor the show’s makers have publicly commented on the matter.
