Bigg Boss 20 Updates | Week 8 Nominations, Mary Kom Out (October 27)

Bigg Boss 20 premiered on September 6, 2026 with 16 housemates, including Love Gill, who won the “Fans Ka Faisla” audience vote over Rhiya Ahir. Seven weeks in, five of the original housemates have left: Rohed Khan in Week 2, Isha Rikhi in Week 3, Rhiti Tiwari in a mid-week eviction on October 2, Aman Gandhi at the October 18 Weekend Ka Vaar and Mary Kom at the October 24 Weekend Ka Vaar, which leaves 11 of the original housemates in the house. Mahhi Vij has been house captain since October 23. Two wild cards entered the house: Manish Goel, who is still in, and Nakul Dhull, who was eliminated in the October 14 episode, a day after a physical fight with Gullu. This page tracks who is still in, who is out and what each contestant has done so far, and it is updated after every Weekend Ka Vaar.

The season’s “Tathas-two” format gives every housemate two lives at the start. A life can be lost through eviction or through twists, which means a housemate can take a hit and stay in the game, as Uditi Singh and Yung DSA have both done. Rhiti Tiwari’s exit in Week 4 showed the other side of the format: with only one life left, a single twist ended her stay.

Bigg Boss 20 Weekend Ka Vaar: Mary Kom Evicted, Rohit Shetty Questions ScoutOP and Love Gill

Mary Kom was evicted from Bigg Boss 20 at the October 24 Weekend Ka Vaar, ending her stay after seven weeks. Guest host Rohit Shetty announced the result on Saturday instead of waiting for Sunday, according to ANI as carried by The Sentinel, and WellthRise’s tracker says she lost her second and last life in the public vote. Salman Khan had said he would miss the weekend because of a prior commitment. A fan account had claimed her exit on X on October 23, before the episode aired, according to The Sunday Guardian.

Manish Goel also lost one of his two lives that night, and The Sentinel reports that he now has a single life left. The seven housemates nominated in Week 7 were Amrapali Dubey, Manish Goel, Arishfa Khan, Love Gill, Gullu, Mary Kom and Uditi Singh, so the other six stayed in the house.

Shetty also addressed the closeness between ScoutOP and Love Gill. Love has said she sees Scout as a brother, and Shetty pointed to moments such as Scout massaging her feet, hands, neck and calves and told them it did not come across well on screen, according to The Sentinel. Leisurebyte’s recap adds that he called out Aasif Khan over his manner toward Qazi Touqeer in the nomination task, questioned Mahhi Vij about changing her alliances depending on the feedback she got during the weekend, and told Amrapali Dubey and Yung DSA to play their own game.

Kaashvi Hiranandani Confronts ScoutOP on Bigg Boss 20: What Happened

On the October 25 Weekend Ka Vaar, Rohit Shetty told the housemates that someone had come to meet ScoutOP. Kaashvi Hiranandani walked in, and Shetty clarified that the show’s team had not invited her and that she had come on her own, according to Leisurebyte. Sources differ on who she is to him: Bollywood Hungama and The Sentinel call her his girlfriend, while Leisurebyte calls her his friend, so Belloria uses her name until that is clarified.

Leisurebyte reports that she asked Love whether she treated all her “muh-bole bhai” the same way, asked Scout how he could compare Love with her, and told him to cut Love off completely. According to Bollywood Hungama she asked him how the “massage parlour” was going and accused Love of having trapped him. The housemates told her they had not seen anything inappropriate between the two, according to Leisurebyte, and she asked Yung DSA to look after the situation.

Earlier that day Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, who were promoting Tu Hai Meri Kiran, played a game in which Scout had to choose between Yung DSA and Love in imaginary situations. He chose Love in a few of them, and Love broke down afterwards, according to Leisurebyte. Bigg Boss 19 first runner-up Farrhana Bhatt also appeared and said she would like to see Qazi Touqeer win.

Outside the house, Love Gill’s team said she has always seen Scout as a brother and does not return his feelings, and called the criticism of her a double standard, according to Bollywood Hungama. Kamya Punjabi criticised Kaashvi on X on October 25 for putting the blame on another woman and said Scout should be held accountable.

On October 26, Kaashvi apologised on Instagram Stories after the criticism that followed her confrontation, saying she had wanted to hold ScoutOP accountable, had not meant to direct hate at anyone and accepted that some of her comments were insensitive towards others, according to India.com. Love Gill’s team alleged in its statement that Scout later blurred the boundary of the brother-sister bond by confessing feelings she did not return, according to India.com.

Belloria’s Viewing Notes: What the October 24 and 25 Weekend Ka Vaar Showed

These notes come from Belloria’s own viewing of episode 49 (October 24) and episode 50 (October 25). They are first-hand observations and are kept separate from the press reports above.

Episode 49, October 24: Rohit Shetty told Aasif Khan, ScoutOP and Yung DSA that when they go after Qazi Touqeer together as a group, it looks poor on screen. Qazi had already apologised, but the three kept provoking him, which came across as a bunch of teenagers trying to show they are a gang and lacked maturity. Shetty praised Qazi that night, and Sonakshi Sinha did the same as a guest on Sunday.

Episode 49, October 24: On Scout and Love, Shetty explained how their behaviour looked on screen and that the audience was not happy with it. Scout became angry, did not respond well and said he was not in the wrong.

Episode 50, October 25: Shetty explained it again, but Scout and Love carried on as before and said an opposing group in the house was provoking them and did not like their relationship. When Kaashvi Hiranandani came in and asked for clarity, telling Scout it was becoming toxic for her and her family, Scout said he would change, that he loved her and that he did not want to hurt her. Through that conversation Scout did not defend Love, which left her visibly humiliated.

Episode 50, October 25: As Kaashvi was leaving, Amrapali Dubey remarked that the house already considered her a bhabhi. Shetty lost his calm and scolded Amrapali, because that kind of talk feeds the vulgarity seen online about the pair. He also pulled up Scout and Love once more for repeating the same behaviour during the break in the Weekend Ka Vaar, after he had already explained it to them.

Episode 50, October 25: Kaashvi was open about how much she had been through, and her pain was visible. But she also said directly that Love was using Scout and called him foolish for falling into her trap, which is a direct attack on Love. Love did not respond to that accusation, and Scout, who is meant to see Love as a sister, did not take a stand for her.

Episode 46, October 21: In a task, Scout dragged Arishfa Khan by her legs. Qazi Touqeer objected, and the argument became a fight in which Aasif Khan and Yung DSA joined Scout against Qazi.

Bigg Boss 20 Weekend Ka Vaar: Aman Gandhi Evicted, Salman Khan Confronts Qazi Touqeer

Aman Gandhi was evicted from Bigg Boss 20 at the October 17 and 18 Weekend Ka Vaar, ending his run after six weeks. According to Filmibeat, he received the fewest audience votes, and Daily Jagran reports that he was in the bottom three with Mary Kom and Uditi Singh. He had already lost his first life in Week 5, when nobody was evicted, so this was his second and last. Arishfa Khan and Uditi Singh were in tears as he left, according to Daily Jagran. A double eviction involving Aman and Mary Kom had been rumoured before the episode, but only one housemate left.

Salman Khan then turned to Qazi Touqeer. Glamsham reports that he questioned Qazi over his behaviour toward ScoutOP, the exchange that led to the October 13 fight, and over not backing Gullu, and that he urged Scout to stand up for himself. He also pulled up Aasif Khan over his aggressive arguments with Love Gill and praised her for staying calm, according to Filmibeat. Glamsham says Nakul Dhull’s exit was addressed as permanent. BBTak, a fan account, suggested he could return with later wild cards, but nothing has been confirmed.

A Filmibeat industry source says Bigg Boss can end the two lives each housemate started with at any time, and that about seven weeks remain, so the rules can still shift. That is a source’s claim, not a show announcement.

Arishfa Khan Pours Water on Three Housemates’ Beds: What Happened

In the October 19 episode (Day 43), Arishfa Khan poured water on the beds of Gullu, Kanika Mann and Mahhi Vij, according to ETV Bharat. Before the Weekend Ka Vaar, several housemates had voted to take away one of her lifelines and called her “brainless,” which left her feeling cornered, and she chose to get even through their bedding.

Kanika called the move childish and told her that she had taken Arishfa’s life, so Arishfa should try to take hers. Mahhi questioned Arishfa’s upbringing and refused her offer to help dry the beds, and Gullu later poured water on Arishfa’s bed in return. With the beds soaked, ScoutOP and Yung DSA gave up theirs to Gullu and Kanika and slept on the floor.

Who Was Nominated in Bigg Boss 20 Week 7?

The seven housemates nominated for eviction in Week 7 were Amrapali Dubey, Manish Goel, Arishfa Khan, Love Gill, Gullu, Mary Kom and Uditi Singh, who was nominated directly by captain ScoutOP, according to WION and India TV. The list aired in the October 20 episode. Mary Kom was evicted at the October 24 Weekend Ka Vaar after losing her second life, and Manish Goel lost one of his two lives. Amrapali Dubey, Arishfa Khan, Love Gill, Gullu and Uditi Singh stayed in the house.

Who Is Nominated in Bigg Boss 20 Week 8?

Six housemates are nominated for eviction in Week 8: Gullu, Kanika Mann, ScoutOP, Aasif Khan, Love Gill and Amrapali Dubey, according to BB Tak as carried by India.com and Filmibeat. IndiaForums reports that the nominations came out of a task on October 25 in which ScoutOP nominated Love Gill and she broke down in tears, and that Yung DSA and Qazi Touqeer clashed in its final round.

Mahhi Vij is house captain, and Qazi Touqeer, Yung DSA, Arishfa Khan, Uditi Singh and Manish Goel are not on the reported list. Deccan Chronicle published a longer list of nine names that no other outlet Belloria checked matches, so this page uses the six-name list until the show confirms it. The Week 8 result will be added after the weekend.

Who Hosted Bigg Boss 20 Weekend Ka Vaar on October 24 and 25?

Rohit Shetty hosted the October 24 and 25 Weekend Ka Vaar in place of Salman Khan, who had said he would miss the weekend because of a prior commitment, according to ARY News and ETV Bharat. Belloria has not found a confirmed date for Salman Khan’s return to the stage.

Bigg Boss 20: Nakul Dhull Eliminated a Day After Hitting Gullu

Nakul Dhull is out of Bigg Boss 20. The second wild card, who entered on October 11, was eliminated in the October 14 episode, a day after he grabbed Gullu by the collar in a physical fight in the garden area, according to India TV. Bigg Boss had told the house on October 13 that a major rule had been broken, and housemates including Mahhi Vij and Aasif Khan had demanded his removal. His stay lasted three days.

Claims that he had already been thrown out circulated from October 12, before the episode showed the fight. The October 14 episode is what settled it. The full account of the fight is in the section below, and Belloria will add Nakul’s reaction or a statement from the makers if either follows.

Why Love Gill and Aasif Khan Had a Heated Argument Over Nakul Dhull

The fallout did not stop with Nakul. After the fight, several housemates kept their distance from him, but Love Gill went to him while he sat outside, checked that he was okay and offered him water, according to The Sunday Guardian. Aasif Khan, who had demanded Nakul’s removal and told Bigg Boss that the housemates would leave if Nakul stayed, asked her to come inside. Love kept talking to Nakul.

Qazi Touqeer pointed out in the promo that she was still talking to him. Aasif objected that nobody should be sitting with Nakul like that, whatever had happened, and then called her a “chaploos,” a Hindi word for a sycophant, which left her visibly angry. Love asked him whom she was supposedly flattering. The Sunday Guardian and Glamsham both reported the exchange from the promo.

The promo clips do not show Love’s full reasoning beyond checking on him, and this page will add her side if she explains it in a later episode.

Yung DSA and Love Gill: A New Rift

The argument spread beyond Love and Aasif. Yung DSA also questioned her decision to stand by Nakul at that moment, according to The Sunday Guardian, while ScoutOP backed her, which put Yung and ScoutOP at odds as well. The episode has opened a rift between Yung and Love, and it will be worth watching how it plays out in the days ahead.

Bigg Boss 20: Nakul Dhull and Gullu’s Fight, and the Rule Bigg Boss Says Was Broken

Bigg Boss 20 has had plenty of heated rows, but the October 13 episode turned physical. Wild card Nakul Dhull and Gullu clashed, Mahhi Vij stepped in, and Bigg Boss told the house that a major rule had been broken. The October 14 episode answered it: Nakul was eliminated.

What Happened Between Nakul Dhull and Gullu

Nakul Dhull, the Haryana creator known as Mitthu Don, walked in as the season’s second wild card on October 11. Two days later he was in a physical clash with Gullu. India TV reported that the two were seen clashing and pushing each other in the October 13 episode, and that Nakul grabbed Gullu by the collar. Other housemates tried to calm the situation down.

Accounts differ on how it started. India TV said Qazi Touqeer was seen spitting in ScoutOP‘s ear during a light-hearted moment, after which Scout questioned Qazi. AajTak reported that Nakul told Scout that Qazi had said something about him, which sent Scout to confront Qazi while Nakul, Gullu and other housemates were sitting nearby. The argument then escalated into the scuffle.

Mahhi Vij Steps In

Mahhi Vij lost her temper after Nakul grabbed Gullu. According to India TV, she asked how he dared hit her friend and demanded that Bigg Boss throw Nakul out of the house. Reports said she was hurt in the scuffle. The Sunday Guardian noted that claims of head and leg injuries, and how she was hurt, had not been independently verified, and nothing confirms whether she needed medical attention.

Bigg Boss Says a Major Rule Was Broken

India TV reported that Bigg Boss later addressed the housemates gathered in the main area and said, “A major law of my house has been broken.” The promo for the next episode carries that warning. It does not name who broke the rule or say what action follows, and the same report noted that the October 14 promo also shows Aasif Khan clashing with Love Gill.

Is Nakul Dhull Out? Yes, After the October 14 Episode

Reports of Nakul’s exit began circulating on October 12, before the episode aired, after the X account BBTak claimed a fight had broken out. Those claims ran ahead of the show: the fight aired on October 13, and the elimination followed in the October 14 episode.

Bigg Boss 20 Eviction Tracker

Quick Reference: Who Is In and Who Is Out

Wild Card Entries: Manish Goel and Nakul Dhull

Manish Goel, a television actor, is the first wild card entrant of Bigg Boss 20. He appeared on stage during the October 10 Weekend Ka Vaar, where Salman Khan tested him on the housemates before announcing him, according to Tellyexpress and Free Press Journal. His entry had been reported for days: Siasat, India Forums and Business Upturn named him and creator Nakul Dhull as expected wild cards over the October 10 and 11 weekend. Goel’s credits include Kasautii Zindagii Kay, Just Mohabbat, Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii and Anupamaa, according to Filmibeat. On October 24 he lost one of his two lives, which leaves him with one, according to The Sentinel.

Nakul Dhull, a Haryana-based creator better known online as Mitthu Don, is the second wild card entrant. He entered during the October 11 Weekend Ka Vaar, a day after Manish Goel, according to Filmibeat and TheSwipeUp. He has more than a million Instagram followers and became widely known through the “Juice pila do mosambi ka” meme, according to India Forums. His arrival came with criticism: old clips in which he spoke about women resurfaced online before he entered, and India Forums and Filmibeat reported that the posts on his Instagram account had been removed, for reasons that have not been established.

Nakul, ScoutOP and Qazi: The Equation to Watch

ScoutOP knew who Nakul was. When Nakul told housemates he runs tuition classes for students in Classes 11 and 12, ScoutOP pointed out that he makes social media content, according to TheSwipeUp. In the episodes after his entry, however, Nakul did not make much of that familiarity with ScoutOP and was instead seen getting along well with Qazi Touqeer. That is an on-screen impression from the early episodes, not a reported alliance. It matters because ScoutOP and Yung DSA are the housemates currently at odds with Qazi: on the October 11 Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan took both to task over how Qazi, who had been unwell, was treated, according to Filmibeat and Odisha TV. Belloria will track whether the wild card shifts that equation. It became the flashpoint on October 13, as covered in the Week 6 section below.

Nakul and Gullu: From Online Rumour to the Screen

From October 11, posts on X and YouTube Shorts claimed that Nakul had been removed within his first 24 hours after a fight with Gullu. The October 13 episode then showed the two clashing physically, according to India TV, and the details are in the Week 6 section below. The show confirmed the exit in the October 14 episode, which eliminated Nakul. Before that, Siasat had reported that he was thrown out on Bigg Boss’s orders, while Outlook and India TV noted that neither Nakul nor the makers had confirmed it.

Because every housemate starts the season with two lives, the open question is how lives, nominations and captaincy will apply to wild card entrants. The reports available do not clarify it, and this page will be updated when they do.

Week 7 in the House (October 19 to 25)

October 19 episode (Day 43): Week 7 begins. ScoutOP was house captain and used his power to nominate Uditi Singh directly. ETV Bharat counts the episode as episode 44 and titles it “A Bitter Revenge!”. It covered Arishfa Khan’s revenge on three beds and a clash between ScoutOP and Yung DSA, who took offence when Scout told him to wash a plate and felt sidelined as Scout spent more time with Love Gill. The nomination task is reported to run in two rounds with “Boring” and “Loser” tags, according to Tellyexpress, which also expects a fight between Aasif Khan and Qazi Touqeer. The nominee list was confirmed in the October 20 episode, covered below.

October 20 episode (episode 45): The house nominated seven housemates, according to WION and Leisurebyte. The same episode had a clash between Qazi Touqeer and Aasif Khan after a remark about a heart attack, and Arishfa Khan broke down over a comment by Mahhi Vij about her upbringing.

October 21 episode (episode 46): Bigg Boss cut the house ration by 50% after the captain broke a rule, according to Leisurebyte. Qazi and Arishfa had a heated argument, and a task ended in another clash when Scout pulled Arishfa, which left Qazi angry. In Belloria’s viewing, Scout dragged Arishfa by her legs in that task, Qazi objected, and Aasif Khan and Yung DSA joined Scout in the fight that followed.

October 22 episode (episode 47): A rift opened between Mahhi Vij and Qazi Touqeer, Uditi Singh broke down while missing her pet, and Scout spoke about his friend Kaashvi, according to Leisurebyte.

October 23 episode (episode 48): Mahhi Vij became house captain, ending ScoutOP’s run. Housemates who were not contenders chose the captain, and after a musical-chairs round Qazi Touqeer picked Mahhi, according to WION and Asianet Newsable. Amrapali Dubey and Love Gill clashed over kitchen duties.

October 24 episode (episode 49): Weekend Ka Vaar with guest host Rohit Shetty. Mary Kom was evicted, Manish Goel lost a life and Shetty questioned the closeness between Scout and Love, as covered at the top of this page.

October 25 episode (episode 50): Kaashvi Hiranandani confronted ScoutOP, and Love Gill broke down after a game with Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, as covered at the top of this page. Week 8 nominations will be added after the task airs.

Week 6 in the House (October 12 to 18)

October 14 episode: Nakul eliminated. Nakul Dhull was eliminated a day after the fight with Gullu. Love Gill’s decision to check on him led to an argument with Aasif Khan, who called her a “chaploos,” and Yung DSA also questioned her decision. The details are in the headline update at the top of this page.

October 13 episode: the Nakul and Gullu fight. India TV reported that Nakul Dhull and Gullu were seen clashing and pushing each other, and that Nakul grabbed Gullu by the collar. Other housemates tried to calm the situation. Accounts differ on the trigger. India TV said Qazi Touqeer was seen spitting in ScoutOP’s ear during a light-hearted moment, after which Scout questioned Qazi. AajTak reported that Nakul told Scout that Qazi had said something about him, which sent Scout to confront Qazi while Nakul, Gullu and other housemates were sitting nearby. Belloria has a full write-up in a separate article on the fight.

Mahhi Vij. According to India TV, Mahhi Vij lost her temper after Nakul grabbed Gullu, asked how he dared hit her friend and demanded that Bigg Boss throw him out. Reports said she was hurt in the scuffle. The Sunday Guardian noted that claims of head and leg injuries, and how she was hurt, had not been independently verified. Some viewers questioned why she got involved, according to Free Press Journal.

Bigg Boss’s warning. India TV reported that Bigg Boss later told the housemates gathered in the main area that a major law of the house had been broken. The promo for the October 14 episode carries that warning and also shows Aasif Khan clashing with Love Gill. The show has not said who broke the rule or what action follows. Siasat reported on October 13 that Nakul had been evicted, while Outlook and India TV said at the time that neither he nor the makers had confirmed an exit. The October 14 episode settled it. The Sunday Guardian found no verified evidence for the claim, circulated by BBTak, that he planned the fight to leave the show.

October 15 episode: ScoutOP becomes captain. Bigg Boss called the former captains, Aasif Khan, Uditi Singh, Gullu and Yung DSA, into the 2X room, where each named two housemates they did not want as captain. Between them they knocked out Love Gill, Aman Gandhi, Mary Kom, Kanika Mann, Amrapali Dubey, Arishfa Khan, Mahhi Vij and Qazi Touqeer, and Manish Goel sat out because he had nomination immunity that week, according to SportsDigest. ScoutOP was the last one left. Yung DSA’s vote against Mahhi Vij led to a heated argument between the two, as Leisurebyte reports.

October 17 and 18 Weekend Ka Vaar: Aman Gandhi evicted. Aman left after receiving the fewest votes, and Salman Khan confronted Qazi Touqeer and Aasif Khan. The full account is in the headline update at the top of this page.

Week 5 in the House (October 5 to 11)

Nominations. Eight housemates were nominated in Week 5: Qazi Touqeer, Gullu, Arishfa Khan, Love Gill, Kanika Mann, Mahhi Vij, Aman Gandhi and Mary Kom, according to Filmibeat.

Captaincy. A newsroom-style debate task decided the captaincy contenders. Kanika Mann, Love Gill, Arishfa Khan, Uditi Singh, ScoutOP and Yung DSA emerged from the debates, and Aasif Khan was handed direct contendership. The task left several fights unresolved, including a clash between Qazi Touqeer, Yung DSA and ScoutOP, Uditi Singh breaking down after a personal remark from Gullu, and Mahhi Vij calling out Yung DSA.

Love Gill’s power play. Love Gill held a special power tied to ration and captaincy, and she used it to make Aasif Khan the house captain, which secured a 25% ration for the house this week. The decision led to a heated exchange with Kanika Mann, who questioned it, and Love later broke down over feeling unable to put herself first.

Qazi Touqeer’s health. Qazi Touqeer was taken to the medical room and was reported to have been diagnosed with dengue this week. He continued to take part in the game.

October 10 Weekend Ka Vaar (Episode 35). Salman Khan told Kanika Mann she is back in the game, and guest Wamiqa Gabbi told her she saw potential and wanted to see more of her, according to Filmibeat. Pre-episode reports from BB Tak and Tellyexpress said Salman would also take ScoutOP to task over his behaviour toward Qazi, who was unwell, and that no housemate would be evicted this week, with Aman Gandhi reported to have received the fewest votes and lost a life instead. Manish Goel entered the house as the first wild card entry, and a second wild card was teased without the face being shown.

October 11 Weekend Ka Vaar (Episode 36). Nakul Dhull entered as the second wild card. Salman Khan took ScoutOP and Yung DSA to task over the row involving Qazi Touqeer, who had been unwell, according to Filmibeat and Odisha TV. No eviction was reported: Aman Gandhi was reported to have received the fewest votes and lost his first life, according to Filmibeat and The Sunday Guardian.

Week 4 in the House (September 28 to October 4)

Nominations. Ten or more housemates went into the Week 4 nominations, including Rhiti Tiwari, Qazi Touqeer, Uditi Singh, Amrapali Dubey, Mahhi Vij, ScoutOP, Aman Gandhi, Kanika Mann, Love Gill and Mary Kom.

The mid-week eviction. On October 2, Bigg Boss called the three captaincy contenders, Yung DSA, Mahhi Vij and Uditi Singh, to the confession room and asked each to name the nominated housemate who had contributed least to the game. Mahhi named Mary Kom and Yung DSA named Aman Gandhi, while Uditi picked Rhiti Tiwari and the other two agreed. Rhiti had only one life left, so her stay ended. It was the season’s first mid-week eviction, and it came days after Salman Khan criticised her language during the Week 3 diss battle.

Captaincy. Uditi Singh won the captaincy task and is the house captain going into Week 5.

October 3 Weekend Ka Vaar. Salman Khan took up the row between Qazi Touqeer and Kanika Mann over Qazi’s “lollipop” joke, telling Qazi he should have backed off once Kanika said she was uncomfortable and pointing out that he had not apologised. Kanika also answered Qazi directly during a Weekend Ka Vaar task, saying she understood his intention. A promo for the episode teased a twist around Rhiti Tiwari’s exit, but no re-entry has been confirmed by the makers.

October 4 Weekend Ka Vaar. Salman Khan backed Gullu after Aasif Khan’s moustache remark, telling Aasif that masculinity comes from the heart and not from a moustache, and adding that many contestants like him have come and gone. Ayushmann Khurrana, on the show for his film Udta Teer, called Gullu a reality show champ, and the two recalled their Roadies days.

Week 3 in the House (September 21 to 27)

Captaincy. Gullu won the house captaincy for a second time, beating Mary Kom and Love Gill in the final round of a task that also produced a heated clash between Yung DSA and Qazi Touqeer. Mahhi Vij backed Love Gill in the task even though the two were on opposing sides.

Nominations. Housemates were asked to name two people they wanted to save, and neither Yung DSA nor Isha Rikhi got a single name, which put both on the block. Yung’s position got harder when Aman Gandhi won a luxury ration task and used his power to take one of Yung’s two lives. Isha had already lost her first life in a ranking task.

The diss battle. The week’s biggest controversy came from a rap-style diss task. Uditi Singh opted out and Qazi Touqeer stepped in, and Rhiti Tiwari’s remarks aimed at both of them drew a public rebuke from Salman Khan on the Weekend Ka Vaar. He called it the “worst diss ever” and asked why Rhiti’s teammates, including ScoutOP, Love Gill, Amrapali Dubey, Aasif Khan and Yung DSA, laughed instead of stopping it. Uditi was left visibly emotional.

The eviction. On September 27, Salman Khan announced Isha Rikhi’s exit after three weeks in the house, with Yung DSA collecting more votes. Her departure leaves 14 housemates. The episode also had Ajay Devgn and Jaideep Ahlawat on stage to promote Drishyam 3, releasing in theatres on October 2, and a new task that reportedly pitted Aman Gandhi against Aasif Khan.

Yung DSA's Captaincy Doesn't Save Him From a Zero-Vote Nomination

Just as the dust from Rohed’s eviction settled, Bigg Boss introduced a new twist for Week 3: a “save” task, where each housemate had to name two people they wanted to protect from nomination, rather than naming who they wanted out. Yung DSA, the show’s first-ever captain, and Isha Rikhi both received zero save votes from the entire house, putting them directly into this week’s danger zone. Yung was visibly hurt on camera, having expected at least some support given his standing in the house, and said as much afterward. The result triggered fresh friction, particularly with Kanika Mann, whose choice not to save him left Yung questioning where he actually stands with people he considered close.

The Aman Gandhi-Yung DSA Feud Escalates

The tension didn’t stop there. In a follow-up luxury ration task, Aman Gandhi won the chance to take away one of two “lives” from a fellow contestant, and chose to target Yung DSA specifically, reasoning that Yung belonged to the opposing alliance. The move sparked a heated back-and-forth between the two, including Yung calling Aman a “bakri” (a term implying someone who shifts position based on convenience) and Aman firing back with a jab about Yung’s beard. It’s become one of the more memorable exchanges of the season so far, and adds another layer of pressure onto Yung heading into this week’s eviction vote, which closes Friday, September 25, at 10 AM IST.

Week 2 in the House (September 14 to 20)

Week 2 at a Glance

Gullu Becomes Bigg Boss 20's Second Captain

The Week 2 captaincy task involved four contenders, Kanika Mann, Mahhi Vij, Gullu, and Rhiti Tiwari, competing in an apple-collection challenge. As part of the task’s twist, each had to name a nominated housemate whose lifeline they’d take if they won. Gullu named ScoutOP, Kanika named Rohed Khan, and Mahhi named Aasif Khan. Rhiti Tiwari was disqualified from the race entirely after refusing to name anyone’s lifeline to take.

Gullu won, becoming the house’s second captain and earning immunity from this week’s eviction. As the actual winner, only his named target, ScoutOP, lost a lifeline; Kanika’s and Mahhi’s choices did not take effect since neither of them won. Reaction online has been strongly positive, with “OG Gullu Is Back” trending on X. Fans have pointed to his calm, low-conflict gameplay, and to his reality television pedigree, he’s a winner of MTV Roadies 20, Splitsvilla 16, and Maa Hai Naa, making him one of the most experienced competitors in the house.

Three Contestants Have Now Lost a Lifeline

ScoutOP’s loss brings the season’s lifeline casualty count to three. Kanika Mann lost hers first, when Yung DSA won the season’s first captaincy and used his power against her. Uditi Singh lost hers next, after receiving the lowest audience votes during the first Weekend Ka Vaar. All three remain in the house, but each is now playing with reduced safety margin heading into future eviction rounds. ScoutOP’s situation is particularly precarious: he’s lost a lifeline in the same week he’s also nominated for eviction, alongside Aasif Khan and Rohed Khan.

Yung DSA's Emotional Breakdown

The season’s first captain has had a rough transition out of power. Promos from the latest episodes show Yung DSA breaking down in tears amid the fallout from losing captaincy and the earlier controversy over the cancelled nomination task, in which Bigg Boss had caught him and three other contestants discussing their nomination picks in advance. His arc has gone from house authority figure to visibly overwhelmed within the space of about a week.

New Fights Across the House

Week 2 has produced several fresh conflicts beyond the captaincy storyline. Aasif Khan and Aman Gandhi clashed again, with Aasif telling Aman, “Mard hoon main, teri tarah ladkiyon ke peeche nahi chupta.” Qazi Touqeer and Aasif Khan had a separate, more heated flashpoint, with Aasif reportedly losing his temper and moving close to Qazi during the argument. Love Gill and Arishfa Khan fought over an alleged “chugli” (gossiping) incident, and a separate friendship controversy between Love Gill and Amrapali Dubey has reportedly spilled outside the show as well.

Week 2 Standings

Rohed Khan Becomes Bigg Boss 20's First Eviction

Rohed Khan was voted out of the house, becoming the season’s first contestant to leave. He had been directly nominated as punishment, alongside Aasif Khan and ScoutOP, after the three were caught pre-discussing nominations with Yung DSA earlier in the week. During the second Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan had already flagged Rohed’s limited visibility, telling him his gameplay simply wasn’t registering with the audience. Aasif Khan and ScoutOP survived the vote and remain in the house.

Qazi Touqeer's Week: Tears, Jokes, and a Growing "Is It Real?" Debate

Qazi Touqeer has become Bigg Boss 20’s most talked-about, and most contested, contestant. Following his Week 1 staged medical-room illness, which he later admitted on camera was pure gameplay, a new promo this week showed him getting visibly emotional in a conversation with Aasif Khan, only for his demeanor to shift noticeably the moment Aasif turned away. The clip reignited debate over how much of his behavior is genuine versus performance, with some viewers defending his acting instincts and others accusing him of manipulating housemates’ emotions.

The controversy escalated further when ScoutOP told the house that Qazi had earlier joked, “Bigg Boss hamein ganji gudiya ka task denge,” followed by a comment about his own testosterone level that several housemates found inappropriate. Kanika Mann separately raised an alleged “lollipop” remark she said Qazi had directed at Arishfa Khan, and later described a separate incident where Qazi asked her “Lollipop khaegi?” three times despite her discomfort. Aasif Khan and Kanika Mann pushed hardest for an apology; Qazi refused, insisting the comments were harmless jokes taken out of context. Mahhi Vij asked him to apologize while also describing him as “mentally weak” in his defense during the house discussion, a characterization other contestants did not universally accept. Arishfa Khan and Uditi Singh publicly backed Qazi through the confrontation. The disagreement over his “ganji gudiya” and “testosterone” comments reportedly nearly turned physical between Qazi and Aasif Khan following the week’s second captaincy task.

Other Moments From the Week

Salman Khan used the second Weekend Ka Vaar to address a separate conflict between Yung DSA and Mahhi Vij, asking Yung why he hadn’t confronted her directly instead of forming a narrative through other housemates, and asking Mahhi directly whether she had verbally abused Yung, which she denied. The week also included an emotional segment where Bigg Boss showed contestants, including Amrapali Dubey, Mahhi Vij, and Love Gill, a tribute video to Sidharth Shukla and Shehnaaz Gill’s Bigg Boss 13 journey, which left several contestants in tears. Special guests Sonali Bendre and Munawar Faruqui joined Salman on the Weekend Ka Vaar stage to promote their upcoming show, Pati, Patni Aur Panga Season 2.

Fans Ask: Where Was Scout During the Farewell?

While Rhiti Tiwari and Aasif Khan’s emotional reactions to Rohed’s exit were widely covered, several viewers watching live noticed someone missing from the goodbye: ScoutOP, one of Rohed’s closer allies in the house alongside Aasif and Yung DSA. Fans following the episode in real time flagged that Scout appeared to step away to the washroom around the time of the farewell, with some asking directly on social media where he was during the moment. It’s a detail that hasn’t shown up in official recaps of the episode, so it’s worth treating as viewer-observed rather than confirmed by the show itself, but it’s become one of the more talked-about side notes of Rohed’s exit among fans piecing together the episode beat by beat.

Week 1 in the House (September 6 to 13)

Week 1 at a Glance

The Premiere and the House

Bigg Boss 20 opened with 16 contestants, including MC Mary Kom, Mahhi Vij, Kanika Mann, Isha Rikhi, Amrapali Dubey, Qazi Touqeer, Aasif Khan, Uditi Singh, and Yung DSA. This season introduced “Tathastu,” a twist giving every contestant two lives before elimination, along with an OTT-first release pattern on JioHotstar ahead of the television telecast.

The Captaincy Task That Started a War

The house’s first real storyline began with the captaincy task on September 9-10, contested between Yung DSA, Kushal Tanwar (Gullu), and Aasif Khan. As part of the task’s twist, each contender had to name one nominated housemate whose lifeline they would remove if they won. Yung DSA named Kanika Mann. Gullu named Uditi Singh. Aasif named Arishfa Khan.

Yung DSA won the captaincy, which meant Kanika automatically lost one of her two lives on top of already facing nomination. Reports from the house noted Yung DSA had openly said he did not get along with Kanika, making the move read as personal rather than strategic. That decision is the real origin of the tension that spilled into public view days later during Weekend Ka Vaar, when Kanika and Yung clashed again over house rules.

Aasif Khan vs Aman Gandhi: The House's First Real Fight

A separate rivalry escalated around the same time between Aasif Khan and Aman Gandhi. Aasif called Aman “jaahil” during an argument, and Aman fired back, calling Aasif “expired chaat masala” and “chhichora.” The exchange reportedly grew tense enough that Aasif warned Aman to settle it outside the game.

First Weekend Ka Vaar: Salman's Verdict

Salman Khan’s first Weekend Ka Vaar aired September 12-13. He praised Qazi Touqeer’s journey, comparing his comeback to Bobby Deol and John Travolta, and asked the house to play a “Bigg Boss and Bigg Loss” game based on the week’s performances. The house named Qazi Touqeer “Bigg Boss.” Aman Gandhi was named “Bigg Loss,” with Salman criticizing him for having little impact on the week’s gameplay.

Eviction Result: Uditi Singh Survives on a Twist

Of the four nominees, Uditi Singh received the fewest audience votes. Under the season’s Tathastu rule, she lost one life but was not evicted, and remains in the house for week two. If she is nominated again and receives the lowest votes a second time, she will be evicted.

The Fight That Started It: Qazi Touqeer

The first real spark came on September 7, just a day after the premiere. Qazi Touqeer, the singer and Fame Gurukul winner, began mimicking Yung DSA’s distinctive way of speaking inside the house. Yung objected on the spot, telling him “Bhai mat ban.” The exchange escalated quickly once Qazi felt his father had been dragged into the argument, firing back “Baap pe mat jaa.” Housemates and viewers alike compared the intensity to the Shalin Bhanot-MC Stan clash from Bigg Boss 16, and it set the tone for how seriously Yung DSA was willing to defend himself in a house full of established television names.

The Kanika Mann Fallout

That decision wasn’t neutral. Yung DSA had reportedly already said, before the task, that he did not get along with Kanika Mann, which made the move read as personal rather than pure strategy. The result: Kanika lost one of her two lives on top of already facing nomination that week. The tension didn’t stay contained to the task. It resurfaced publicly during the first Weekend Ka Vaar on September 12-13, when Kanika and Yung DSA clashed again, this time over house rules, with Kanika directly challenging his authority as captain.

By the time Salman Khan addressed the house that weekend, Yung DSA had built a first week defined less by his music career and more by two separate confrontations, one with a fellow newcomer trying to needle him, and one with an established actress who had every reason to feel targeted.

Yung DSA After Week 1

For a contestant with no prior reality television experience, this is an aggressive opening. Winning the captaincy gave him real power in the house, but using it against Kanika Mann has already made him a flashpoint rather than a neutral authority figure. His account also crossed a significant follower milestone this week, verified at 730,000 on Instagram, evidence that the drama is translating into outside attention regardless of how the house itself feels about him.

Whether that translates into a longer run in the game or an early target on his back will depend on how the Kanika Mann rivalry develops, and whether Qazi Touqeer’s early jab turns into a running storyline or fades once the house moves on to new conflicts. Either way, Yung DSA has made himself impossible to ignore in a house full of far more experienced names.

Original Housemates Still in the House (11)

Gullu (Kushal Tanwar)

A reality-show personality and content creator, Gullu lost the first captaincy race to Yung DSA but has since won the role himself. In Week 3 he beat Mary Kom and Love Gill in the final round of the captaincy task to stay on as captain. On October 4, Salman Khan backed him over Aasif Khan’s moustache remark and Ayushmann Khurrana called him a reality show champ. He was nominated again in Week 5. On October 13 he was at the center of a physical confrontation with wild card Nakul Dhull, who grabbed him by the collar, according to India TV. Nakul was eliminated the next day, in the October 14 episode. Status: In the house.

Yung DSA (Harsh Machare)

A Pune-based rapper known for the track “Yeda Yung,” Yung DSA became the season’s first house captain and used the win to remove Kanika Mann’s lifeline, a move he had committed to in advance. In Week 3 nobody chose to save him, and Aman Gandhi later took one of his lives, but he survived the eviction round with more votes than Isha Rikhi. In Week 4 he was one of three captaincy contenders asked to name the nominee who had contributed least, and he chose Aman Gandhi before the group settled on Rhiti Tiwari. On October 14 he questioned Love Gill’s decision to check on Nakul Dhull and clashed with ScoutOP, who backed her, according to The Sunday Guardian. In Belloria’s viewing of the October 24 episode, Rohit Shetty included him with Aasif Khan and ScoutOP in the criticism of the group going after Qazi Touqeer. Status: In the house, one life taken.

Kanika Mann

A familiar face from Indian television, known for Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega and Khatron Ke Khiladi 12, Kanika Mann has been in an ongoing conflict with Yung DSA since he removed her lifeline in Week 1. In Week 2 she took Rohed Khan’s first life in a captaincy contest, and he was evicted soon after. In Week 4, Salman Khan sided with her over Qazi Touqeer’s “lollipop” joke. In Week 5 she was a captaincy contender and questioned Love Gill’s choice of captain in a heated exchange, and on October 10 Salman Khan told her she is back in the game. Status: In the house.

Arishfa Khan

A digital creator and actor with a reported 29 million Instagram followers, Arishfa Khan entered as one of the season’s biggest social-media names. She was nominated in Week 1 and again in Week 5, according to Filmibeat. She was in tears when Aman Gandhi was evicted on October 18, and on October 19 she poured water on the beds of Gullu, Kanika Mann and Mahhi Vij after housemates took one of her lifelines. Status: In the house, nominated in Week 7 and stayed.

Uditi Singh

An actor and model known for the Netflix film Jaane Jaan, Uditi Singh drew attention on premiere night when Salman Khan compared her to Kareena Kapoor. She received the fewest votes among Week 1’s nominees but lost a life through the season’s “Tathastu” twist instead of leaving. In Week 3 she opted out of the diss battle and was left visibly emotional by the remarks aimed at her. In Week 4 she won the captaincy task and named Rhiti Tiwari as the nominee who had contributed least, which sealed Rhiti’s exit. In Week 5 she was among the captaincy contenders and broke down after a personal remark from Gullu during the debate task, and Aasif Khan took over as captain. Status: Former house captain, one life lost.

Love Gill

Born Lovepreet Kaur Gill, this Punjabi actress and model built her profile through music videos, including Karan Aujla’s “Facts,” before moving into Punjabi television and film. She entered through the “Fans Ka Faisla” vote, beating Rhiya Ahir, and was nominated in Week 1. In Week 3 she reached the final three of the captaincy task alongside Gullu and Mary Kom. In Week 5 she used a special power tied to ration and captaincy to make Aasif Khan captain, which secured a 25% ration for the house. On October 14 she went to check on Nakul Dhull after his fight with Gullu while other housemates kept away, which led to a heated argument with Aasif Khan and questions from Yung DSA. In Week 7 she was nominated and stayed. On October 24 Rohit Shetty questioned her closeness with ScoutOP, and on October 25 she broke down after a game with Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal and was accused by Kaashvi Hiranandani of trapping Scout, which her team has denied. Status: In the house.

Qazi Touqeer

A singer in his first major reality show, Qazi Touqeer was named the house’s “Bigg Boss” of Week 1, with Salman Khan praising his comeback story. He also had a widely discussed moment where he feigned illness to be taken to the medical room, later admitting on camera that it was part of his game. In Week 3 he stepped into the diss battle in Uditi Singh’s place and clashed with Yung DSA in the captaincy task. Filmibeat reports that Ajay Devgn praised him on the September 27 Weekend Ka Vaar. On October 3, Salman Khan told him he should have backed off once Kanika Mann said she was uncomfortable with his “lollipop” joke, and noted that he had not apologised. He was nominated in Week 5 and was reported to have been diagnosed with dengue that week, but kept playing. On October 11, Salman Khan took ScoutOP and Yung DSA to task over how Qazi was treated during his illness. India TV reported that on October 13 he was seen spitting in ScoutOP’s ear during a light-hearted moment, an exchange linked to the row that led to the Nakul and Gullu fight. In Belloria’s viewing of the October 24 and 25 Weekend Ka Vaar, Rohit Shetty told Aasif Khan, ScoutOP and Yung DSA that ganging up on Qazi after his apology looked immature, and then praised Qazi, as did guest Sonakshi Sinha. Status: In the house.

Aasif Khan

Known for roles in Mirzapur, Panchayat and Paatal Lok, Aasif Khan is competing in his first reality show. After a heated Week 1 fight with Aman Gandhi, he was directly nominated in Week 2 with Rohed Khan and ScoutOP and survived when Rohed was evicted. He drew backlash for a remark about clean-shaven men during a moustache row, according to Business Standard, and was on Rhiti Tiwari’s team during the Week 3 diss battle. On October 4, Salman Khan told him that masculinity does not come from a moustache and said contestants like him have come and gone. In Week 5 he was given direct captaincy contendership and became house captain when Love Gill used her special power to choose him. He demanded Nakul Dhull’s removal after the Gullu fight, and on October 14 he argued with Love Gill after she went to check on Nakul. He stopped being captain when ScoutOP took over on October 15, and at the October 18 Weekend Ka Vaar Salman Khan pulled him up over his arguments with Love Gill, according to Filmibeat. In Belloria’s viewing of the October 24 episode, Rohit Shetty told him, ScoutOP and Yung DSA that going after Qazi Touqeer together after he had apologised looked immature on screen. Status: In the house, former captain.

Mahhi Vij

A television actress known for Balika Vadhu and Laagi Tujhse Lagan, with past reality-show experience on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 4, Nach Baliye 5 and Khatron Ke Khiladi 7, Mahhi Vij entered the house alongside ongoing public interest in her personal life. In Week 3 she backed Love Gill in the captaincy task despite being on the opposing side. In Week 4 she was one of the three captaincy contenders asked to name the nominee who had contributed least, and she picked Mary Kom before agreeing to Rhiti Tiwari’s exit. On October 13 she stepped in when Nakul Dhull grabbed Gullu and demanded his removal, and she was reported to be hurt in the scuffle, though the extent of any injury has not been verified. She became house captain in the October 23 episode after Qazi Touqeer picked her, and Rohit Shetty questioned her on October 24 about changing alliances. Status: In the house, house captain since October 23.

Amrapali Dubey

One of Bhojpuri cinema’s biggest stars, known for her films opposite Dinesh Lal Yadav (Nirahua), Amrapali Dubey brings a large regional fan base to the season. Salman Khan questioned her, along with the rest of Rhiti Tiwari’s team, for laughing during the Week 3 diss battle instead of stepping in. In Belloria’s viewing of the October 25 episode, she remarked that the house already considered Kaashvi Hiranandani a bhabhi, and Rohit Shetty scolded her for it. Status: In the house.

ScoutOP (Tanmay Singh)

A well-known gamer and esports personality, ScoutOP brings India’s gaming community into the Bigg Boss audience. He was one of three contestants directly nominated in Week 2 and survived, and he was among the teammates Salman Khan questioned after the Week 3 diss battle. On the October 11 Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan took him to task over his behaviour toward Qazi Touqeer, who had been unwell, according to Odisha TV. Reports linked the October 13 fight to an exchange involving him and Qazi. He became house captain in the October 15 episode as the last housemate left after the former captains knocked out eight names, according to SportsDigest, and used the captain’s power to nominate Uditi Singh directly in Week 7, according to Filmibeat. At the October 17 Weekend Ka Vaar, Salman Khan told him to stand up for himself, according to Glamsham. Mahhi Vij replaced him as captain on October 23. On October 24, guest host Rohit Shetty questioned his closeness with Love Gill, and on October 25 Kaashvi Hiranandani confronted him in the house. In Belloria’s viewing of the October 21 task, he dragged Arishfa Khan by her legs, which led to a fight with Qazi Touqeer in which Aasif Khan and Yung DSA backed him. Status: In the house, captain until October 23.

Evicted Contestants (5)

Mary Kom

A six-time world boxing champion and 2012 London Olympics bronze medallist, Mary Kom took part in her first reality show. She entered the season not long after her 2025 separation from husband Karung Onkholer Kom. In Week 3 she made the final three of the captaincy task, which Gullu won. In Week 4, Mahhi Vij named her as the nominee who had contributed least, but the group chose Rhiti Tiwari instead. In Week 7 she was nominated, and guest host Rohit Shetty announced her eviction at the October 24 Weekend Ka Vaar, a day earlier than usual, after she lost her second and last life. During her stay she formed bonds with Gullu, Qazi Touqeer, Yung DSA and Kanika Mann, according to The Sentinel. Status: Evicted, October 24 (Week 7).

Aman Gandhi

A television actor known for Naagin 3 and his role as Hrithik Virani in the Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2 spin-off, Aman Gandhi was at the center of the house’s first major fight with Aasif Khan and was named Week 1’s “Bigg Loss” by Salman Khan for having little impact. Week 3 changed that: he won a luxury ration task and used his power to take one of Yung DSA’s lives. In Week 4, Yung DSA named him as the nominee who had contributed least, but the three captaincy contenders settled on Rhiti Tiwari instead. He was nominated again in Week 5 and lost his first life after receiving the fewest votes. In Week 6 he was nominated again and was evicted at the October 17 and 18 Weekend Ka Vaar, with the fewest votes according to Filmibeat and in the bottom three with Mary Kom and Uditi Singh according to Daily Jagran. Status: Evicted, October 18 (Week 6).

Rhiti Tiwari

A musician and the daughter of Manoj Tiwari, Rhiti Tiwari was at the center of Week 3’s diss-battle controversy, when Salman Khan told her to show respect within limits. She apologised to Qazi Touqeer and Uditi Singh afterwards, but on October 2 she became the season’s first mid-week eviction when the three captaincy contenders chose her as the nominee who had contributed least. A Weekend Ka Vaar promo teased a twist around her exit, but no re-entry has been confirmed. Status: Evicted in Week 4 (mid-week).

Isha Rikhi

A Punjabi actress and model with Bollywood credits, Isha Rikhi joined the show after announcing her divorce from rapper Badshah, according to The Indian Express. She lost her first life in a Week 3 ranking task and was evicted on September 27 after three weeks in the house. Status: Evicted in Week 3.

Rohed Khan

An actor with credits in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Tejas and Sarzameen, Rohed Khan was the first housemate to leave.

Status: Evicted in Week 2.
