Nakul Dhull Enters Bigg Boss 20 as Second Wildcard

Nakul Dhull’s Bigg Boss 20 journey has begun with a difficult conversation. The influencer entered the house as the second wildcard contestant of the week, following television actor Manish Goel. But it was not just his arrival that got attention — it was the explanation he offered for the video that has followed him into the show.

What Nakul said about the controversial video

In a conversation with Asif Khan, Qazi Touqeer and other housemates, Nakul recalled how the controversy began. He said a man had told him he was afraid of girls. Nakul’s response was that women often feel unsafe around men, especially when they are walking alone at night.

He explained the point he was trying to make: “Mera context ismein yeh tha ki tumne unko itna dara rakha hai, aur tum khud darr rahe ho.” In English, he said his message was that women have been made to feel so scared, yet the man was the one claiming fear.

Nakul said those who watch him know he is strongly pro-feminist, and that his stand on the issue is clear.

A clip that went further than intended

Nakul told the housemates that when the video reached the people involved, the reaction was intense. He said the backlash followed the clip’s circulation, and he has maintained that his words were taken out of context.

His entry into Bigg Boss 20 has once again brought his social media presence and the earlier spat into the limelight. The show gives contestants room to share personal experiences, and Nakul used that space to give his side of the story.

The legal case is still ongoing

Nakul also addressed the legal proceedings connected to the controversy. He confirmed that a case had been filed and that the hearing is still going on. He did not present the conversation as a resolution; instead he pointed to the continuing legal process and the consequences he has faced since the video attracted attention.

What this adds to Bigg Boss 20

• Nakul is the second wildcard this week, after Manish Goel joined earlier.
• Both entries happened during Weekend Ka Vaar, so the house has gained two new personalities in a short time.
• His first big conversation is not about strategy but about clearing the air on a controversy.

Bigg Boss audiences often judge contestants on their past as much as their present. Nakul’s decision to address the video early could shape how the house and the audience read him. He is not hiding from the controversy, and that openness — or how the housemates react to it — may become one of the early storylines of his stint.
