The Bigg Boss season this time around has been tweaked a little with respect to the format. This includes introducing challengers in the form of previous season’s Bigg Boss contestants.

Vikas Gupta, Rakhi Sawant, Rahul Mahajan were some of them who entered the show and entertained all. While Vikas Gupta is now not on the show due to health concerns, it seems like Eijaz Khan is also set to leave the show. In his place, ex-contestant Devoleena Bhattacharjee is set to enter the house as a challenger in his place.

Eijaz had reportedly signed a film before entering the house. The shoot has now resumed post the lockdown. While his managers requested the makers to adjust the dates for Eijaz, it didn’t materialise. So now, Eijaz will have to leave the show in order to join the shoot.

Devoleena had to leave the show in the previous season of the show as she suffered an injury on her L3 and L4. Now, she is set to be back and will be the 6th challenger to enter the show. There were reports that Devoleena was entering in Vikas’s place, but Vikas is set to be back post his treatment. The actress is only entering as a proxy until Eijaz can be back on the show.

While a lot of Eijaz’s fans are disappointed with his exit, Devoleena’s entry be an interesting addition to the house and I sure am looking forward to seeing her back on the show again.
