October 19, 2024: In a surprising turn of events on Bigg Boss 18, Vivian Dsena, who has been at odds with Chahat Pandey since the show’s start, has won the admiration of fans for standing up for her when housemates denied her food. Despite their ongoing clashes, Vivian’s decision to back Chahat in a difficult moment has shifted the narrative, and fans are lauding him for his integrity.
Tensions flared in the latest episode when Avinash Mishra returned to the house after being evicted by the majority. As part of his reentry punishment, Avinash was placed in jail but given the power to distribute the house’s ration. Holding a grudge against those who voted him out, he refused to share food with housemates unless they apologised. This left everyone in a bind, forcing the group to decide not to cook until the ration was fairly distributed.
Chahat, however, managed to secure some food for herself and began preparing a meal. This sparked outrage among the housemates, who felt betrayed. Chum Darang snatched utensils from Chahat, Rajat Dalal blocked the stove, and Sara Afreen physically restrained her by holding her hands. Chahat, visibly upset, struggled to free herself and broke down in tears.
Just as tensions reached a boiling point, Vivian stepped in, confronting Rajat Dalal. In a heated exchange, Vivian asserted that no one could stop him from cooking, standing up for Chahat despite their previous disagreements. Rajat threatened to break Vivian’s hand if he proceeded, but Vivian boldly accepted the challenge, sparking a physical standoff.
The incident has gone viral on social media, with fans praising Vivian for his unexpected support of Chahat. “Vivian was criticised for targeting Chahat, but when the entire house turned against her, he took a stand for what was right,” a fan tweeted. Another wrote, “Vivian fighting against the whole house to defend Chahat proves he stands for justice, no matter the person.”
Vivian’s shift in attitude has won him new supporters, with many lauding him for standing by Chahat during a time when she was isolated and targeted.
