'Bigg Boss 19': Nehal Chudasama becomes new captain
What's the story
The popular reality show Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan, has a new captain. According to BiggBoss_Tak, Nehal Chudasama has taken over the reins from Farrhana Bhatt, who had previously held the position twice. For context, Bhatt was only voted in as the captain once, but after a heated fight, Bigg Boss decided to suspend last week's captaincy task, and she continued to serve as the leader of the house.
Controversial victory
Chudasama won the captaincy task via a democratic vote
Chudasama emerged victorious in the captaincy task after a democratic vote, defeating Ashnoor Kaur and Shehbaz Badesha. While some housemates were reportedly unhappy with her win, Bhatt was seen supporting her best friend. The new captaincy comes as a surprise, since until last week, more than half the house was at odds with Chudasama.
