In a surprising turn of events in Bigg Boss 18, Shrutika Arjun was eliminated from the reality show just a week before the grand finale. Shrutika was nominated for eviction along with Chahat Pandey and Rajat Dalal.

In the latest episode of the Salman Khan-hosted reality show, Chahat, Shrutika and Rajat participated in a two-part task to decide who would be evicted from the house. During the first round, each of them had to discuss their strengths and explain why they deserved to remain in the competition.

In the second round, all three contestants were tasked with exposing the weaknesses of their rivals. Next, Bigg Boss asked the contestants to choose whether eviction should be determined by the votes received in the show or by the decision of the live audience.

She unanimously chose the live audience decision, which led to Shrutika’s elimination based on audience votes. On the show, her close friend Chum Darang cried after hearing the decision.

The current line-up of contestants includes Vivian Dsena, Karan Veer Mehra, Avinash Mishra, Shilpa Shirodkar, Rajat Dalal, Eisha Singh, Chahat Pandey and Chum Darang. The grand finale of Bigg Boss 18 will take place on January 19.
