Bigg Boss 20 is reportedly set to wrap up in December, with Salman Khan's reality show entering a decisive stage. As contestants continue to compete for the coveted trophy, speculation about the grand finale date has intensified following recent hints about the season's schedule.
According to Telly Express report, Bigg Boss 20 could conclude with its grand finale on December 20, 2026. The buzz around the possible date comes after Rohit Shetty's appearance as a guest host, during which he reportedly suggested that the contestants had crossed the halfway point, with reportedly eight weeks remaining until the winner is announced. However, an official announcement from the makers is still awaited.
The 12 contestants reportedly still in the running on Bigg Boss 20 are Amrapali Dubey, Aasif Khan, Arishfa Khan, Kanika Mann, Love Gill, Mahhi Vij, Manish Goel, Qazi Touqeer, ScoutOP (Tanmay Singh), Uditi Singh, Yung DSA and Gullu (Kushal Tanwar). Mahhi Vij currently holds the house captaincy, while Manish Goel is the only wildcard contestant left in the competition after Nakul Dhull's elimination.
Since its premiere, Bigg Boss 20 has seen several contestants exit the competition. Rhiya Ahir was evicted on the premiere night after losing the audience vote to Love Gill. Rohed Khan became the season's first eviction, followed by Isha Rikhi in Week 3 and Rhiti Tiwari in Week 4. Nakul Dhull was subsequently removed by the makers following a physical fight with Gullu, while Aman Gandhi departed during the sixth-week Weekend Ka Vaar. The latest eviction saw Olympic medallist Mary Kom in Week 7. The competition now reportedly features 12 contestants fighting for the trophy, with the season expected to conclude in December.
