The Bigg Boss 20 house has barely opened its doors, but tensions among the contestants have already begun to surface. Actor Mahhi Vij, who entered the reality show with a strong personality, appears to have rubbed some of her fellow housemates the wrong way within the first day. A preview of the upcoming episode shows Mahhi getting involved in a series of exchanges over household chores and tea, leaving contestants including Aman Gandhi, Isha Rikhi and Arishfa Khan visibly annoyed.
The first disagreement takes place when Mahhi asks Aman to help her with her luggage. While Aman agrees to help, he asks her to say "please". When Aasif Khan steps in and begins helping Mahhi, she takes a playful dig at Aman for insisting on the word. Clearly irritated, she walks away and says, "Please bolun main tereko, bhak."
The situation gets more awkward in the kitchen when Mahhi and Isha have a conversation about tea. Mahhi asks Isha whether she knows how to prepare a strong cup of chai and then remarks that "tum ladkiyan" should know how to make tea. Isha immediately questions the comment, asking Mahhi what she is then. Mahhi responds, "Aye shaani mat ban chal."
The exchange does not end there. Later, Arishfa joins Mahhi Vij in the lawn, where their conversation again turns towards tea. Mahhi comments about letting the tea boil for some more time. Arishfa subsequently goes to the kitchen and tells the others that Mahhi appears to be constantly ordering people around.
Things become more uncomfortable when Mahhi later asks Arishfa to pour milk into a cup. Arishfa makes it clear that she is not particularly pleased with the way Mahhi has been interacting with the housemates.
Isha also shares her concerns with the other contestants, claiming that Mahhi has been asking people to handle her chores since they entered the house. Arishfa admits that she is getting "off vibes" from Mahhi, while Aman appears to agree with her assessment.
With the first personality clash emerging even before the contestants have properly settled into their new surroundings, Mahhi has already become one of the talking points of the season. The early friction suggests that household duties, personalities and differing expectations could become recurring sources of conflict in the Bigg Boss 20 house.
Bigg Boss 20 airs on Colors TV and streams on JioHotstar.
