Salman Khan returned to host the first Weekend Ka Vaar of Bigg Boss 20, and he made one thing clear to the housemates: there is only one rockstar in the house, and his name is Qazi Touqeer. The Bollywood superstar praised the former Fame Gurukul winner for his entertaining personality and made the entire house mimic his signature “Owww” move. The episode, which aired on September 12, 2026, also saw Salman compare Qazi’s career struggles to those of John Travolta and Bobby Deol, leaving the singer emotional.
Salman Khan’s Special Message for Qazi Touqeer
Salman Khan singled out Qazi Touqeer during the first Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 20. The host declared that while there may be many stars in the house, only one contestant deserves the title of rockstar.
“Iss ghar main kitne bhi stars hain, rockstar toh ek hi hai Qazi Touqeer. Poore week main apne Owww karke chal rahe the… Mujhe sikha do na ‘I am a rockstar baby.’”
The host then asked the other housemates to do Qazi’s signature dance step. Salman tried to copy the move himself but joked that it was very difficult for him to do. The segment became one of the most talked-about moments of the evening.
Qazi Touqeer’s Emotional Rockstar Moment
Salman Khan gave Qazi Touqeer a special platform during the Weekend Ka Vaar episode. He asked Qazi to lead a concert in the activity area of the Bigg Boss 20 house. The host praised Qazi for never giving up despite difficult phases in his career.
“John Travolta didn’t have work for 20 years but he didn’t stop. Bobby Deol who had major hits also had a struggling period. Just like that, even Qazi didn’t stop and he is here.”
The moment left Qazi Touqeer emotional. He was seen getting teary-eyed as Salman praised his journey. Mary Kom was also invited on stage and sang a few lines of “Ajeeb Dastan Hai Ye.” Yung DSA and ScoutOP also praised Qazi during the segment.
The Viral Catchphrase and Dance Step
Qazi Touqeer has been one of the most noticeable personalities in the Bigg Boss 20 house since day one. His catchphrase “I’m a Rockstar baby, aau!” became a viral talking point within the first week. His signature “Owww” move was copied by several contestants, and the trend only grew after Salman Khan joined in.
Qazi also went viral for doing 100 push-ups in one go in “commando” style. His fitness and energy have left fans amazed. The singer has been entertaining viewers with his dramatic expressions, singing, and uninhibited personality.
From Fame Gurukul to Bigg Boss 20
Qazi Touqeer first rose to fame as the winner of Sony TV’s singing reality show Fame Gurukul in 2005. He won the title alongside Ruprekha Banerjee on October 20, 2005. The show also featured a young Arijit Singh, who was eliminated before the finale and finished in sixth place.
Qazi and Arijit have remained friends for over two decades. The two met during Fame Gurukul and have maintained a close bond. Qazi has frequently referred to Arijit as a brother. In 2026, Qazi visited Arijit’s hometown of Jiaganj, West Bengal, for a personal reunion.
Following his Fame Gurukul win, Qazi released an album with Ruprekha titled “Qazi-Ruprekha Jodi No-1,” which featured the popular track “Yeh Pal.” In 2009, he participated in the survival reality series “Sarkaar Ki Duniya.” He later appeared in the music video for “Afghan Jalebi (Ya Baba)” from the film Phantom in 2015, alongside Katrina Kaif and Saif Ali Khan. Qazi recorded and released his own official cover version of the song.
Arijit Singh’s Support for Qazi Touqeer
Arijit Singh has shown strong support for Qazi Touqeer during his Bigg Boss 20 stint. The global playback singer said he would watch Bigg Boss for the first time because of Qazi.
“Apna rockstar hai udhar.”
Arijit’s post on X quickly drew attention. Inside the Bigg Boss house, Qazi responded to Arijit’s gesture by singing his popular track “Tum Hi Ho.” The tribute brought their long-standing friendship back into focus nearly two decades after their Fame Gurukul days.
First Week Nominations and Eviction Twist
The first week of Bigg Boss 20 saw nominations for Kanika Mann, Uditi Singh, Love Gill, and Arishfa Khan. However, there was no elimination in the first week. The season features a theme called “Tathas-Two,” which means every contestant gets two lives to save themselves. Kanika Mann lost one of her lives, and either Uditi Singh or Love Gill was set to lose one lifeline during the first eviction.
The weekend episode also addressed major clashes from the first week. Kanika Mann and Yung DSA had a fight over house duties. Aasif Khan and Aman Gandhi got into an explosive showdown that nearly turned physical. ScoutOP and Gullu also argued about unwashed utensils.
