New Year festivities could not drown the tension built up inside the Bigg Boss house, with only two weeks left for the finale. While it was a fun-filled Sunday inside the house with comedian Balraj Syal, social media was abuzz with rumours of a shocking nomination likely in this year’s first episode of Bigg Boss 11, on Monday.
Here are the major takeaways:
It was a funny comment, says Shilpa
Earlier, we saw Shilpa Shinde tell Puneesh Sharma that Vikas Gupta would not make it to the finale. "He will be evicted in the 14th week, I know," Shilpa had told Puneesh. She sounded so confident that viewers were left puzzled over the "reality" of the reality show.
On every Weekend Ka Vaar, callers get to ask a question to one housemate and this Sunday, a caller, voicing this suspicion, asked Shilpa how she knew of Vikas's eviction. “It was just my opinion. How shall I know what will happen to whom? We were just making fun. The comment was not serious,” Shilpa Shinde replied to the caller.
Shocking nominations?
Will Puneesh and Akash make it to the finale?
Shilpa can shrug off the comment as a joke, but as the show now enters its 14th week, there are rumours of shocking nominations.
According to insiders, Shilpa Shinde, Hina Khan, Vikas Gupta and Luv Tyagi will be nominated this week. It is surprising because if this turns out to be true, then Akash Dadlani and Puneesh Sharma will become the first two contestants of this season to reach the finale. Nobody had expected them to make it to even the top six. Shilpa and Hina will be saved by audience votes, it is believed, leaving Vikas and Luv behind. Keeping the fact in mind that Luv has been saved by huge votes every time he has been nominated for eviction, Shilpa’s comment about Vikas does not seem to be funny. But then will the show-makers do away with the "mastermind"?
Between #LuvTyagi and #VikasGupta Vikas may have to go.Only #ShilpaShinde is certain to remain even #HinaKhan has a slim lead over the other two in #BB11 #BiggBoss11 related polls om twitter in the last week

Will there be another mid-week eviction?
While the coming two weeks are full of uncertainties, another possible scenario is that both Puneesh and Akash won’t be able to contest the finals. One of them may get evicted in the middle of the week.
