Morning shows the day. And in the house of Bigg Boss, the opening night pretty much sets the tone of the rest of the reality show. Celebrity hairstylist, the much-tattooed and much-outspoken Sapna Bhavnani, had made it clear that unlike most of the inmates, she was not a Salman-baiter, but positioned herself firmly on the other side of the fence.

In her introductory episode she rattled off the names of her clients, and teased Salman whether he knew Katrina. But what was perhaps contained by decorum was a torrent over the weekend when the platinum blonde vented her feelings about the show's ridiculously popular host. And none of it was flattering, to say the least.

Sapna's strongly worded comments, which could have earned the show a healthy TRP, rattled the producers Endemol so much that they decided to play it safe. Sources confirmed the scathing attack on Sallu has been chopped off and the audience will not get a taste of Sapna's fury.

Sapna's outburst, it seems was brought about by Salman countering her claims that she was not on the show for the prize money. In an earlier episode the star took pot shots at her saying, "If you are not here to play the game, are you on a picnic at a resort?"

Sallu's gentle and not-so-gentle rebukes and his say in the matters of the house has become an intrinsic party of the show. And the star evidently enjoys his role playing - switching between big brother, mentor, patriarch, conscience keeper, moral police and entertainer.

But obviously Sapna is not amused. "Koi haq nahi banta har hafte sabki bezzati kartye rahe har Friday. Kyunki aap mujhe paisa dete ho mai aapki bullshit sunti rahoongi har Friday?" she reportedly thundered in full view of the all-seeing cameras.

Sapna dared Salman to kick her out of the show, saying she was not someone the star could bully into submission. And to drive home her point, she called him a 'serial woman-beater' before letting off a volley of cuss words. And if that was enough, she let the world know what exactly she thought of his paint brush skills: "If I win the show, I shall buy his painting and gift it to him."

Sources from the show confirmed that this was probably the first time in the six seasons of Bigg Boss that a contestant has locked horns with the host. Well, considering Salman's history with those who dared to needle him, as long as Sapna does not call a press conference or take a dig at his failed romance in any restobar, she is safe.
