Bigg Boss OTT 2 Highlights: Jiya Shankar Gets Evicted Ahead Of Finale Leaving 5 Finalists

Background

New Delhi: ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’  is seen some major developments over the last few weeks. The Salman Khan hosted show is heading towards the Weekend Ka Vaar episode and fans cannot keep calm. This year the participants include Falaq Naaz, Jiya Shankar, YouTuber Fukra Insaan aka Abhishek Malhan, Mika Di Vohti winner Akanksha Puri, Cyrus Broacha, Puneet Superstar( who was eliminated), Jad Hadid, Aaliyah Siddiqui, Bebika Dhruve, Palak Purswani, Avinash Sachdev and Pooja Bhatt.

Many contestants like Puneet Superstar and Akanksha Puri have been eliminated for various reasons. Jad Hadid’s kissing episode with Akanksha Puri created quite some controversy on various social platforms and also generated massive viewership for the OTT show. 

The Hindi-language television series, "Bigg Boss," which is streamed on TV, is the source material for the digital reality show. Karan Johar presented the show's inaugural season on OTT. August 8 marked the debut of "Bigg Boss OTT Season 1."

The winner of "Bigg Boss OTT" won Rs. 25 lakhs, which is comparable to the substantial cash award on the "Bigg Boss" TV programme.

Because of the daily controversies that take place in the Bigg Boss house, the celebrity reality show "Bigg Boss OTT" is making news every day. The 'Bigg Boss' OTT house is located in Film City, Mumbai, the same as the original house for the original series. The house includes a living space, bedrooms, bathrooms, a kitchen, a garden, a store, a smoking room, an underground jail, and a confession chamber where the convicts can privately meet with Bigg Boss.

Unlike Season 1, which had the theme "Stay Connected," this year's show has the theme "Stay Together." The 'Bigg Boss OTT 2' version has seen quite many changes in the viewing format. From social media influencers to veterans like Pooja Bhat, this season offers a lot more excitement than before.

Bigg Boss OTT 2 Live: Elvish Yadav & Abhishek Malhan Top Online Polls, Fans Wage Social Media Wars To Announce Favourites

Contestants Elvish Yadav and Abhishek Malhan have emerged as the biggest fan favourites, with online polls going on, leaving it to the public, who will be the BOSS between these two.

Every contestant gaining access to the ‘Ticket to the Finale’ was part of their own ‘Systum’ be it Abhishek, Elvish, or Jad Hadid, Bebika Dhruve or Avinash Sachdev. But their systems got broken, and only Elvish and Abhishek are now the finalists.

Both the contestants won the hearts of audiences due to their grounded and respectful, but tough attitude, zeal to win, not talking smack, obeying the rules and displaying all the attributes which determines who will be the winner in ‘Big Boss’.

Regardless of who will emerge victorious on the end of the line, both have been given the title of ‘BOSS’ with the Janta, and they are heavily divided as camps are split into ‘ElvishTheBoss’ and ‘AbhishekTheBoss’ on social media.

If online polls were the only thing to determine the victor, it would seem the show would be unlikely to end as they were the two contestants to garner the least amount of hate. People have gone on to comment that these two contestants may have just broken the whole ‘Systum’ and maybe there is an entirely new system coming to place.

Abhishek and Elvish did not just audiences but even their fellow contestants as Pooja Bhatt and Jiya Shankar had also praise them early on respectively, with Pooja Bhatt calling Abhishek a ‘strong and determined individual’ while Jiya had called Elvish a ‘grounded, passionate, strong willed person’.
