The high-voltage drama in the Bigg Boss 20 house has officially reached its first major milestone. After two weeks of shifting alliances, intense captaincy tasks, and explosive arguments, the Salman Khan-hosted reality show has witnessed its very first elimination.
Austrian actor and model Rohed Khan’s journey in the Bigg Boss house has come to an end. Failing to garner enough audience votes and missing out on the controversial ‘Extra Jeevandaan’ lifeline, Rohed became the first contestant to bid adieu to the show, leaving 15 housemates behind. Here is a complete breakdown of the first eviction of the season, the massive fan outrage over the lifeline concept, and what went wrong for Rohed.
The Elimination Process: How Rohed Lost His Lifelines
The eviction process this week was uniquely tied to the captaincy task and the newly introduced 2X Room. Rohed Khan was nominated alongside esports gamer ScoutOP and Aasif Khan.
Prior to the final voting outcome, contenders for the captaincy task—Kushal Tanwar (Gullu), Mahhi Vij, and Kanika Mann—were asked by Bigg Boss to enter the 2X Room and strip one lifeline from a nominated contestant of their choice. While Gullu and Mahhi chose to take away lifelines from ScoutOP and Aasif respectively, Kanika Mann chose Rohed Khan. This crucial decision cost Rohed his first lifeline.
When the final audience voting results were tallied during the Weekend Ka Vaar, Rohed emerged with the fewest votes among the nominated trio. Since he lacked the votes to survive, he lost his second and final lifeline, leading to his immediate elimination from the house. Before his exit, host Salman Khan also openly questioned Rohed’s lack of screen presence and minimal contribution to the show’s dynamics compared to other active contestants.
As Salman bhai said Rohed bhai you genuinely played with dignity and lika a true gentleman. BiggBoss me aise contestants rare aate hai Handsome man with good heart ❤️ Will miss uh! #BiggBoss20 #ScoutOP #YungDSA https://t.co/SnJxUgFm31

Fans Slam The ‘Extra Jeevandaan’ Concept
While many viewers agreed that Rohed’s passive gameplay justified his eviction, a large section of the audience took to social media to heavily slam the makers over the show’s format.
The anger stems from the newly introduced ‘Extra Jeevandaan’ concept. In the first week of the season, contestant Uditi Singh received the lowest votes but was ultimately saved from eviction by utilizing the Extra Jeevandaan. Fans were left highly confused and furious as to why the same lifeline was not extended to Rohed Khan this week.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one angry fan wrote, “Extra Jeevandaan concept is absolutely rubbish. It is just used according to the makers’ convenience, as this way they can protect whom they don’t want to evict.” Another user echoed similar sentiments, stating, “We know he’s not doing enough for the show, but eviction is 100% unfair. That 2X concept is of no use. Otherwise Uditi ko bhi nikalte first week mein.”
Who is Rohed Khan?
For the unversed, Rohed Khan is an Austrian actor and model known for his striking looks and action-oriented roles. Prior to his reality TV debut on Bigg Boss 20, Rohed appeared in several European projects and made a name for himself in Bollywood with appearances in major films like Kangana Ranaut’s Tejas (2023) and the action-thriller Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.
While his reality TV stint was short-lived, Rohed’s exit has certainly raised the stakes in the house. With only 15 contestants remaining and the realization that the makers might not always use the Extra Jeevandaan to save them, the housemates will have to significantly step up their game!
