Mumbai, Oct 9 : In the upcoming episode of 'Bigg Boss 19', housemates Mridul Tiwari and Malti Chahar will be seen engaging in a heated verbal exchange.

A new promo was shared by the channel on Instagram, where Mridul is seen locking horns with Malti, who entered as a wildcard in the 'Bigg Boss' house on the Weekend Ka Vaar episode.

Mridul is seen telling Malti: 'I have never said anything to anyone.'

'He is mad. When he had to say he didn't say and now he is saying what he wants to say,' said Malti.

'I thought I would abuse him so much that he would feel ashamed,' Mridul retorts and adds: 'No, I will listen to my own words. If I see you again, I will ask you.'

Malti asks him to move away.

An angry Mridul then says: 'I will turn you into a ghost in a minute.'

Malti calls Mridul mad, the latter then says: 'Yes, I am mad. I will sell 50 mad people like you in a minute.'

'Ladaayi ka naya chapter shuru, Mridul vs Malti ka clash bana sabka centre of attention!' the promo was captioned.
