Bigg Boss 20 Day 1 Preview: Mahhi Vij-Isha Rikhi Tension Brews Over Tea

Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss 20 premiered on September 6 with 17 contestants entering the house. The premiere episode introduced the season’s new theme and nominated Kanika Mann as the first taskmaster with special powers. At the beginning of the show, Bigg Boss said that action and drama would begin on the first day itself. The Day 1 promo of Bigg Boss 20 proved it. After the premiere ended, the promo revealed that Mahhi Vij and Isha Rikhi might not get along well on the show.

Mahhi Vij and Isha Rikhi to be at loggerheads?

The video started with the contestants in the bathroom area. They were arranging their luggage. When Mahhi received her luggage, she told Aman Gandhi to help her. Aman did not like the way she spoke to him. He asked her to say ‘please’, to which Mahhi refused. Later, she asked Isha whether she could make tea. Mahhi said, “Ladki hai, chai banani toh aati hogi.” Next, she was seated in the garden area when she saw Arishfa Khan relaxing. She instructed her to go to the kitchen. Arishfa said she couldn’t make tea.

In Mahhi’s absence, Isha complained to other housemates that she had been giving orders to make tea. She wondered whether Mahhi would ask her co-contestants to wash her dirty undergarments on the show. Arishfa told Aman that she is getting ‘off’ vibes from Mahhi.
