Shehbaz Badesha evicted from Bigg Boss 19 before finale

As Bigg Boss 19 heads toward its finale, the latest weekend episode stunned viewers with a surprise double eviction. Shortly after Ashnoor Kaur’s departure, Shehbaz Badesha was announced as the next contestant to leave. The reveal was made by actor Riteish Deshmukh, who joined Salman Khan on the episode while promoting the Marathi edition of the show.

The eviction was based on public voting, and Shehbaz ended up receiving the least votes of the week. Before announcing the result, Salman and Riteish asked the housemates to guess who might be eliminated. Farrhana Bhatt and Tanya Mittal pointed to Shehbaz, while Gaurav Khanna and Amaal Mallik suspected Malti Chahar. Riteish finally declared Shehbaz’s exit, leaving several contestants emotional—especially Amaal.

Salman tried to lift Shehbaz’s spirits, saying he had created his own identity instead of being known only as Shehnaaz Gill’s brother. Shehbaz called his Bigg Boss journey a long-awaited dream and apologised for previously accusing the show of bias.

Entering as the first wildcard of the season, Shehbaz had earlier faced a setback when he lost a public vote during the grand premiere to Mridul Tiwari.

His eviction just days before the finale sparked strong reactions online. Fans expressed sadness, and his sister Shehnaaz Gill shared a heartfelt Instagram post, calling him a winner in her eyes. Viewers praised his cheerful nature, comic timing and the meaningful friendships he formed in the house.

Ashnoor Kaur’s exit came just before Shehbaz’s, after Salman accused her of intentionally hitting Tanya Mittal during a task. With this being the last Weekend Ka Vaar of the season, the show is now preparing for its December 7 finale. The episode will stream on JioHotstar at 9 pm and air on Colors at 10:30 pm.

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