Cinema VinesBigg Boss 20 has delivered its first mid‑week eviction, with Rhiti Tiwari exiting the house under a twist that bypassed the usual audience vote. The Salman Khan‑hosted season, which began on September 6, saw Rhiti, the daughter of actor‑singer and politician Manoj Tiwari, join the show alongside her father. Her stint quickly turned controversial, marked by clashes with housemates and a series of heated confrontations that attracted intense media scrutiny.
During the latest captaincy task, the show granted Yung DSA, Mahhi Vij and Uditi Singh a special “vardaan” – a power to strip a lifeline from another contestant. Rhiti, who had already been reduced to a single life, became the target of this power. When it was used against her, she lost her final lifeline, ending her journey in the house. This move made her the season’s first mid‑week eviction, a departure from the standard public‑voting elimination process.
Rhiti’s exit follows the earlier departures of Rohed Khan, the first contestant to leave, and Isha Rikhi, who was evicted as the second housemate. Her time on the show was punctuated by a series of altercations, most notably with Qazi Touqeer. After a separate controversy involving Qazi’s alleged illness, Rhiti confronted him and questioned his conduct, escalating tensions that culminated in a diss battle during a captaincy task. She directed abusive remarks at Qazi and Uditi Singh, provoking a confrontation that became a hot topic during the show’s “Weekend Ka Vaar” segment.
Salman Khan addressed Rhiti’s language during the task, calling her performance “the worst diss ever” and reminding her of the limits of what could be said in a diss battle. The host also highlighted Rhiti’s connection to her father and her status as a star kid, comparing her behaviour to that of former contestant Dolly Bindra and questioning how her actions reflected on Manoj Tiwari’s public image.
The unexpected mid‑week exit of Rhiti Tiwari underscores the unpredictable nature of Bigg Boss 20. While the show traditionally relies on audience votes to determine evictions, the captaincy task twist introduced a new layer of strategy and drama, leaving fans surprised and eager to see how the remaining contestants will navigate the rest of the season.
