Quick Answer: What Is Happening in Bigg Boss 20?
As of October 29, 2026, Bigg Boss 20 is in Week 8. Gullu and Yung DSA had a physical fight during the captaincy task, six contestants are nominated for eviction, and five contestants have already left the house. The show premiered on September 6 with 16 contestants and streams on JioHotstar, with Salman Khan as host.
Gullu vs Yung DSA: Fight in the Captaincy Task
JioHotstar released a promo late on October 27 for the October 29 episode. In the captaincy task, housemates had to stand in a shape announced by Bigg Boss, and anyone who failed to secure a spot was out of the task. The fight broke out as the task began, with Gullu and Yung DSA pushing each other.
The promo does not confirm whether Bigg Boss will take action. Some viewers on X argue that Gullu got physical first, as he did earlier in the season in a fight with Nakul Dhull, and are asking for strict action. Others claim the fight was planned. Treat these as fan reactions, not confirmed facts.
The captaincy race itself comes after Mahhi Vij was removed as captain when she received six votes against her during nominations. She was then chosen as the sanchalak (task conductor) for the new captaincy task.

Rohit Shetty Hosts Weekend Ka Vaar
Rohit Shetty hosted the October weekend episode in place of Salman Khan. He questioned Asif Khan about his recent argument with Qazi Touqeer.

Shetty also announced a lifeline twist: contestants with two lifelines lose one, and those with only one are eliminated.
