‘Bigg Boss 16’ contestant Abdu Rozik recently revealed that Salman Khan congratulated him on his engagement. Last week, Abdu announced that he plans to marry his fiancée, Amira, in July.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Abdu mentioned that Salman called to congratulate him after the news went viral. He shared that 'Bhai' gave him his blessings and is likely to attend the wedding in Dubai.
‘My engagement was a surprise to everyone. I chose not to tell anyone before the engagement on April 24. I feel grateful my family and team helped me keep this private,’ Abdu said. He added, ‘But as soon as Salman Bhai heard the news, he called to congratulate me. He gave me his blessings and it means a lot to me. I look forward to having my bada bhaijaan (elder brother) at my wedding. My friends from Bigg Boss too like Shiv Thakare, were surprised but happy for me.’
Earlier in May, Abdu Rozik surprised everyone by announcing on Instagram that he would be getting married on July 7, 2024. The singer later revealed that his fiancée's name is Amira, and they first met at an eatery in Dubai, where they fell in love. ‘She is pretty, has long hair, and beautiful eyes. I introduced myself, and we exchanged numbers. We've known each other for the last four months. She is studying business administration in Sharjah,’ he told Bombay Times.
Recently, Abdu penned a long note addressing the ‘nasty’ comments from trolls mocking his engagement. He argued that they were ridiculing his decision to marry solely because of his small stature.
‘Thank you to everyone who has congratulated me and wished us well but from happy news I also have to talk about something bad that’s happening. I want to say the negative comments and those who are making fun of me and being nasty is very sad. Imagine Amira and her family are reading these comments,’ Abdu wrote.
The Tajikistani singer expressed that his wedding announcement has turned into a ‘nightmare.’ He said, ‘We went public after much discussion and reluctance, and unfortunately, it is turning from the best news to a nightmare. People who are deaf, blind, or have no arms or legs get married, but because I'm small, you make fun of me. My health is good, allhamdulillah, and I deserve to be happy too.’
Abdu urged everyone to be kind, saying, ‘We need to learn to love and be kind first, then educate others.’
