Aman Loses a Life as Nakul Dhull Enters the House

The Lollipop Controversy Reaches a Breaking Point

On Sunday's Weekend Ka Vaar, host Salman Khan finally addressed the housemates' obsession with the 'lollipop' controversy. The episode began with Salman jokingly noting that viewers might wonder why he hadn't scolded them yet, but quickly moved to the root of the issue.

Salman questioned Arishfa Khan first, revealing that the controversy originated from her conversation with Qazi Touqeer. While Arishfa initially took the comment lightly, her perception shifted after Kanika Mann spoke out. Kanika clarified that what started as a prank turned uncomfortable once she learned more about Qazi's character.

The discussion then widened to include Yung DSA and ScoutOP. Salman asked Mahhi Vij why the term was used so frequently inside the house. Yung and Scout explained they were retaliating against Qazi, who had allegedly started an argument near the washroom. However, when Salman pressed Qazi on his comments while he was unwell, the host made it clear that illness does not excuse inappropriate language.

The tone shifted sharply when Salman criticized ScoutOP and Yung for their frequent use of abusive language. He noted that curse words had become part of almost every sentence they spoke. The situation escalated when ScoutOP and Yung pointed out a discrepancy regarding Kanika's claim that Qazi had apologized versus Qazi's denial.

Salman Slams ScoutOP for Treating Sick Qazi

The most serious moment of the episode came when Salman addressed ScoutOP's behavior towards Qazi during his illness. Salman stated that the way ScoutOP served food to a sick housemate was completely wrong, describing the behavior as heartless. He made a strong comparison, stating that even people in jail do not serve food in such a manner.

ScoutOP apologized to Salman immediately after the criticism. The conversation became deeply emotional when Qazi broke down while talking about his health. He recounted how Kanika offered him four eggs, but once she left, everyone else started asking for just one egg. Qazi explained that this situation deeply hurt him.

Uditi Singh admitted she genuinely did not realize how sick Qazi had been and apologized personally during the break. She told him that if she had known the seriousness of his condition, she would have given him her own eggs as well. Qazi accepted her apology, bringing some closure to the tension.

Aman Loses a Life as Nakul Dhull Enters

After a lighter moment where Salman commented on ScoutOP's posture on the sofa, the show moved to nominations. The nominated housemates were Mahhi Vij, Qazi Touqeer, Mary Kom, Aman Gandhi, Arishfa Khan, Kanika Mann, Kushal Tanwar (Gullu), and Lovepreet Gill (Love Gill).

Salman revealed that Mary Kom was safe before announcing that Aman Gandhi had received the fewest votes. Under the season’s two-life rule, Aman lost one life. He remains in the Bigg Boss 20 house with one life left; nobody was evicted this week.

The episode concluded with a major twist as Salman introduced the season's second wild-card contestant, Nakul Dhull. Before his entry, ScoutOP was shown having another heated argument with Qazi, though Manish Goel tried to intervene. Nakul entered the house and greeted the contestants, while Lovepreet Gill felt that her dream guy had finally arrived.

Editorial Take

This episode marked a significant turning point in the season's narrative. While the lollipop controversy provided drama, the core issue was the treatment of an unwell housemate. Salman Khan's intervention highlighted the show's commitment to decorum and empathy. Aman’s lost life raises the stakes for his next public vote without ending his run, while Nakul Dhull’s arrival adds a new player to the house. The apology from Uditi Singh suggests a shift in alliances as the season progresses.
