Bigg Boss 20: Salman, Ranvijay and Wamiqa Rally Behind Gullu

Bigg Boss 20’s latest Weekend Ka Vaar became an unexpected tribute to Kushal Tanwar, the contestant viewers know as Gullu. Host Salman Khan offered a direct ‘Well done’ and said audiences have been responding strongly to his honest opinions.

The timing is difficult to ignore. Gullu is one of the nominated contestants this week, alongside Qazi Touqeer, Mary Kom, Kanika Mann, Arishfa Khan, Aman Gandhi and Mahhi Vij. When a Weekend Ka Vaar episode hands a nominated player that kind of public backing, it often changes the way viewers and housemates read the game.

Three voices, two different qualities

Ranvijay kept his endorsement emotional and to the point, calling Gullu ‘Humari shaan Gullu.’ It is the kind of shorthand that fans repeat, and it gives the contestant a clear identity with the audience.

Wamiqa Gabbi highlighted the other side of the same contestant. Her comment, ‘I love your positive attitude,’ draws attention to how Gullu has been handling the stress of the house, not just the arguments. For a show like Bigg Boss, where disagreements and pressure are daily events, staying visibly upbeat is its own gameplay choice.

What makes the praise interesting is the split. Salman and Ranvijay are essentially rewarding candour; Wamiqa is rewarding resilience. That combination can help a contestant build a broad fan base, because different sections of the audience get a different reason to support him.

Why Weekend Ka Vaar praise matters

Weekend Ka Vaar is the episode where the game is openly assessed. The host and guests set the narrative for the week ahead, and their words often become the headline. For a nominated contestant, that can be either a safety net or a challenge. Approval from outside can strengthen a player’s position, but it can also make them a bigger target inside the house.

Here is what Bigg Boss 20 viewers will be tracking once the episode settles:

• Whether Gullu continues with the honesty that earned Salman’s ‘Well done’.
• How the other housemates react to his growing outside support.
• Whether the Weekend Ka Vaar boost is enough to survive the current nominations list.

The real test begins now

The risk for any contestant who is praised for being straightforward is that the label starts to feel like a script. Gullu’s challenge is to keep giving his actual perspective rather than performing a version of himself for the cameras.

For now, the support from Salman, Ranvijay and Wamiqa tells viewers that his approach is working. The nominations, however, bring the vote back to the audience. The next few episodes will show whether recognition inside the studio turns into another week inside the house.
