Bigg Boss 19 Shocker: Fans Erupt in Anger Over Abhishek Bajaj and Neelam Giri’s Double Exit, Slam ‘Rigged’ Eviction

In a stunning turn on Bigg Boss 19, the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode saw two contestants, Abhishek Bajaj and Neelam Giri, unceremoniously shown the door in a double eviction that has ignited widespread outrage among viewers. As the season barrels toward its finale, the decision sparked by house captain Pranit More’s choice to safeguard Ashnoor Kaur has fans decrying the move as a blatant manipulation by the show’s producers.

The episode, hosted by Salman Khan, began with the Bollywood icon delivering pointed critiques. He advised Ashnoor Kaur that her time in the house had largely been eclipsed by her alliance with Abhishek Bajaj. Khan also took Abhishek to task for his comments on Tanya Mittal, chiding him for misinterpreting a straightforward compliment as flirtation.

Tensions peaked during the elimination round, where Gaurav Khanna and Farrhana Bhatt emerged safe, leaving Abhishek, Neelam, and Ashnoor in the bottom three. Empowered by his captaincy, Pranit opted to rescue Ashnoor, sealing the fate of the other two. The moment turned poignant as Ashnoor dissolved into tears, with Abhishek offering a brief embrace before departing the house.

With this development, the Bigg Boss 19 roster now stands at 10: Gaurav Khanna, Malti Chahar, Shehbaz Badesha, Amaal Mallik, Tanya Mittal, Ashnoor Kaur, Kunickaa Sadanand, Farrhana Bhatt, Mridul Tiwari, and Pranit More.

The backlash has exploded across social platforms like Reddit and X, where supporters of Abhishek, often hailed as the season’s standout performer, voiced deep frustration over his ouster. “The makers have been gunning for him for weeks it’s finally happened, and it’s utterly unjust,” one Reddit user lamented. “He poured his heart into this: the hustle, the fire, the laughs. He outshone Kunika, Mridul, Malti, or Shehbaz by miles.” Another added, “This eviction feels like the show’s death knell for me. Can’t tune in anymore.”

Admirers praised Abhishek’s authenticity, with one noting, “He stayed true to himself, never kowtowing to the producers’ agenda that’s what marked him as a target in this so-called reality format.” A heartfelt tribute read, “This season will forever be his, win or lose. He’s the true champion.” Detractors of the remaining lineup chimed in: “Picture the finale with Shehbaz, Tanya, Amaal, and Malti? Cringe.” One vented, “Pranit’s call on his ‘friend’ Abhishek? Total letdown what a betrayal of loyalty.”

On X, sentiments echoed the fury. “Even when I clashed with Abhishek’s style, he earned a finale spot,” one post stated. “Active from the jump, unlike late bloomers. His ego was real, but so was his edge in tasks and vibe top half of the pack, easy. This boot is criminal.” Another elaborated, “Abhishek was finale-bound, flaws and all. He dove in fully, owning every beat with grit. Never scripted his arc; he scripted his own. Passion like that doesn’t fade.”

The episodes brimmed with further intensity. Salman didn’t spare Tanya Mittal or Farrhana Bhatt, calling out their conduct, while lauding Gaurav Khanna’s contributions. Festivities included toasts to the Indian Women’s Cricket Team’s 2025 World Cup triumph alongside Jhulan Goswami and Anjum Chopra. Adding levity, Salman chatted with Ajay Devgn, Rakul Preet Singh, R. Madhavan, and Meezan Jafri to hype their forthcoming film De De Pyaar De 2.
