the high-stakes “Mahal” was rocked by a mix of intense violence, celebrity surprises, and lighthearted flirting.
1. The Archit-Maxtern Physical Clash
The episode began with an explosive confrontation. As Maxtern entered the palace, Lakshay and Archit Kaushik (friends of Elvish Yadav) charged toward him. Archit physically pushed Maxtern to the ground with significant force, leaving the other contestants in shock.
- The Protest: Senior contestants like Prince Narula, Karan Patel, and Ridhi Dogra immediately took a stand against the violence. They removed their mics and refused to continue filming until strict action was taken.
- The Result: The “Lion” (the show’s mysterious host) intervened and officially expelled Archit Kaushik from the show for violating the non-violence policy.
2. The Great Khali’s Grand Entry
The tension shifted to excitement when a special challenger was announced for the “Dare or No Dare” task.
- The Surprise: Instead of a regular competitor, WWE superstar The Great Khali walked into the arena.
- The Arm-Wrestling Task: Luvkesh Kataria was the first to face him and lost quickly. To give the contestants another chance to add ₹50,000 to the prize pot, the Lion invited two girls, Arushi Chawla and Krishna Shroff, to face Khali together.
- The Victory: In a heartwarming moment, Khali intentionally let the girls win, telling them it was “for the fans.” This victory brought the total prize money pot to ₹3,35,000.
3. Relationship Dramas & Flirting
- Siwet and Ridhi: Siwet Tomar provided some comedic relief by openly flirting with Ridhi Dogra, calling her the “moon and stars” of the house. Ridhi took the attention sportingly, which lightened the mood after the earlier fight.
- Nikki and Arbaz: On the flip side, Nikki Tamboli and Arbaz Patel reached a breaking point. Nikki accused Arbaz of being emotionally unavailable, leading to a heated argument that suggests their alliance may be crumbling.
- Bebika vs. Rajat: Bebika Durve slammed Rajat Dalal for body-shaming her after he made an offensive comment during a group conversation.
4. The “Underwear” Crisis
In a viral funny moment, Maxtern revealed he couldn’t take a bath because he lacked an extra pair of underwear. After Digvijay jokingly refused to help, Faisal Shaikh (Mr. Faisu) stepped in to provide a fresh pair, leading to uncontrollable laughter among the housemates.
