Mumbai, October 20, 2026: Bigg Boss 20 is set to witness a temporary change in its hosting lineup, with filmmaker Rohit Shetty stepping in for Salman Khan during the upcoming Weekend Ka Vaar episode.
Salman Khan announced the development during the October 18 episode, informing the contestants that he would be unavailable to host the next weekend instalment because of a prior professional commitment. He also revealed that Rohit Shetty would take over the hosting responsibilities in his absence.
Rohit Shetty Takes Charge of Weekend Ka Vaar
Rohit Shetty is a familiar face on Indian reality television. Apart from directing popular films such as Singham, Simmba and Chennai Express, he has hosted several seasons of the stunt-based reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi.
His entry into the Bigg Boss 20 house is expected to bring a different hosting style to the show. Viewers will be keen to see how he interacts with the contestants, addresses their disagreements and responds to the ongoing drama inside the house.
However, it has not yet been confirmed whether Rohit will host one episode or both weekend episodes.
Aman Gandhi Eliminated from Bigg Boss 20
The October 17 and 18 episodes also featured the elimination of contestant Aman Gandhi. He was among the bottom three contestants alongside Uditi Singh and Mary Kom before Salman announced his exit from the competition.
Aman had been in the bottom three for two consecutive weeks. His elimination marks another significant development as the remaining contestants continue their journey in the reality show.
With Rohit Shetty taking over the hosting duties for the upcoming Weekend Ka Vaar, audiences will be watching to see how the temporary change affects the dynamics of Bigg Boss 20.
