The programme's host and actor questioned Akbar about why he used a disrespectful term for Renu while doing a task. Akbar responded that he was not trying to harm her identity. He went on to say that he had apologised to Renu shortly after the incident and that he had no intention of insulting any gender. In response to a question about it, Renu said she was embarrassed by the incident. Adhila and Noora were also criticised for their demeaning nickname for Aneesh.

Mohanlal warned each competitor that since audiences of all ages watch this show, they should be careful with the language they use. He remarked, "Give respect and take respect," Ranjith and Shaithya were among the participants who voiced their disapproval of using such names and language in the show. Because of the way of speaking he uses in the house, Mohanlal gave Appani Sarath a fair warning.
