Bigg Boss 20: Nakul Dhull And Gullu's Fight Turns Physical, Mahhi Vij Reacts

Tensions inside the Bigg Boss 20 house appear to be escalating. In the latest episode, a heated confrontation turned physical between wild card contestant Nakul Dhull and Kushal Tanwar, popularly known as Gullu. A clip of the moment has since gone viral, prompting speculation about Nakul's eviction from the house. 

The clash began after Nakul took offence at Qazi Touqeer for making fun of the incident in which the Fame Gurukul winner spat in fellow contestant Scout's ear. Qazi was discussing the episode with housemates, including Gullu and Mahhi Vij, and joking about his own actions when Nakul overheard the conversation. He then informed Scout about it.

Scout, Yung DSA and Nakul then approached Qazi to confront him. However, the situation took an ugly turn when Gullu intervened and made a remark that angered Nakul. Gullu then challenged him, asking, “Bhidna hai kya (Do you want to fight)?” Nakul immediately moved towards him, triggering a physical altercation. Gullu also retaliated and the confrontation soon escalated into a full-blown fight.

Mahhi was later seen losing her temper over the incident. Defending Gullu, she shouted, “You cannot hit my friend?” and “How dare you?” She also questioned Nakul's conduct, asking, “This is what you have come here to do?” before demanding that Bigg Boss evict him from the house. Meanwhile, the other contestants stepped in to calm things down and prevent the situation from escalating further.

The confrontation comes amid an already strained equation between Nakul and Gullu, who reportedly maintained their distance since Nakul entered the house on Sunday. Nakul joined Bigg Boss 20 as a wildcard contestant alongside television actor Manish Goel.

The next episode promo hinted at Nakul's eviction from the house but the makers had not issued an official confirmation yet. 

Hosted by Salman Khan, Bigg Boss 20 streams daily on JioHotstar at 9 pm. The show is also telecast on Colors TV at 10:30 pm.

'Kya Samajhta Hai Re Tu Budhau': Big B Recalls Being Trolled Over His Age

Amitabh Bachchan may have millions of followers, but that has not kept him away from online trolling. The veteran actor recently shared how social media users have commented on his age and questioned his posts. During an episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18, Big B spoke about how these reactions changed his approach to social media and why he no longer writes as much as he used to.

The conversation began when a contestant named Vinamra asked Amitabh Bachchan how he deals with criticism online. He pointed out that people from his age group often find it difficult to handle negative comments and wanted to know how the actor manages such reactions.

Big B explained that when he first started using social media, he saw it as a space where he could express his thoughts freely. Things changed when he began reading what people had to say about his posts.

Recalling the comments, the actor said, “Pehle humne socha ki yeh bahut accha yantra hai, ismein hum apne dil ki baat bol dete hain… Uske baad jab humne padhna shuru kiya ki iska comment kya hai, humne aise likhna band kar diya. ‘Apne aap ko kya samajhta hai re tu budhau… Aise kyun bol raha hai?' Toh aise-aise shabdawali hoti hai, bada ajeeb lagta hai. Toh ab humne zyada likhna chhod diya hai (At first, I thought this was a very good platform, where I could express what was in my heart… Then, when I started reading the comments, I stopped writing only. ‘What does he think of himself, this old man… Why is he talking like this?' You come across such kinds of language, and it feels very strange. So now, I have stopped writing as much)…"

He then turned the conversation into a joke, pointing out an unexpected upside to his decision.

“Aur bhaisahab ek baat batayein aapko? Jab se kam likhna kar diya hai, humara follower badhta chala ja raha hai (And brother, let me tell you one thing? Ever since I started writing less, my followers have continued to increase)."

His observation left Vinamra and the studio audience laughing.

Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 18 premiered on August 10. The quiz-based reality show airs on Sony Entertainment Television and streams on SonyLIV.

Australia's Cummins, Starc, Hazlewood and Lyon Create Test Cricket History

Australia's fabled fast-bowling quartet of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon etched their names into the history books during the first Test against South Africa at Kingsmead. The renowned bowling unit breached a special 600-wicket milestone with their scalps in the first innings against the Proteas. The four have become the first quartet to complete 600 wickets in Test cricket while playing together. Coming into the first Test in Durban, the four bowlers had taken 599 wickets in the 37 Tests they had played together and breached the 600-wicket mark during Day 2 of the fixture at Kingsmead.

The four bowlers now have more than 600 wickets in the 38 Tests they have played together. This came after they combined to take the first eight wickets to fall in South Africa's innings at the time of writing.

Cummins leads the chart among the four with 160 wickets in matches played alongside Starc, Hazlewood and Lyon.

Starc is second with 155 wickets in 74 innings, while Hazlewood stands third with 152 wickets in 72 innings. Lyon is a close fourth with 140 wickets in 70 innings when playing alongside the other three bowlers.

They are the first quartet to cross the mark and have a substantial lead over the next most prolific quartet of James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Ben Stokes and Moeen Ali, who have taken 433 wickets in the 34 Tests they played together.

Australia's bowlers continued to make inroads into South Africa's batting line-up on Day 3 of the fixture. Cummins took three wickets, while Hazlewood and Lyon claimed two each, and Starc also picked up one.

The hosts were in trouble at 197/8 when Hazlewood removed Marco Jansen, leaving the Proteas in deeper trouble.

Australia had earlier made 390 batting first, with Matt Renshaw scoring a century.
