Shehbaz Badesha Exits Bigg Boss 19 Just Ahead of Finale

As Bigg Boss 19 approaches its conclusion, the latest episode took viewers by surprise with an unexpected double eviction. Following Ashnoor Kaur's exit, Shehbaz Badesha was announced as the next contestant to leave the show. Actor Riteish Deshmukh revealed the news, joining Salman Khan to promote the Marathi version of the series.

The decision stemmed from public voting, with Shehbaz receiving the fewest votes of the week. Before the results were announced, Salman and Riteish asked other housemates to speculate on who might be leaving, with Farrhana Bhatt and Tanya Mittal suspecting Shehbaz, while Gaurav Khanna and Amaal Mallik had their eyes on Malti Chahar. Ultimately, Riteish disclosed Shehbaz’s departure, prompting emotional reactions from various contestants—most notably Amaal.

Salman encouraged Shehbaz, affirming that he had carved out his own identity within the house and was more than just Shehnaaz Gill's brother. Shehbaz reflected on his Bigg Boss journey as a dream come true and expressed regret for previous comments regarding the show's fairness.

Shehbaz entered the season as the first wildcard contestant, previously experiencing a setback when he lost a public vote during the grand premiere to Mridul Tiwari.

His eviction just before the finale triggered significant reactions online, with fans expressing their disappointment. His sister Shehnaaz Gill shared an emotional Instagram tribute, declaring him a winner in her eyes. Viewers appreciated his vibrant personality, comedic timing, and the strong friendships he formed on the show.

Ashnoor Kaur's exit occurred just prior to Shehbaz's, after Salman called her out for deliberately hitting Tanya Mittal during a task. As the season prepares for its December 7 finale, this marks the last Weekend Ka Vaar episode. The finale will be available for streaming on JioHotstar at 9 pm and will be aired on Colors at 10:30 pm.

The top six contestants remaining are Gaurav Khanna, Amaal Mallik, Tanya Mittal, Malti Chahar, Farrhana Bhatt, and Pranit More.
