Day 40 of ‘Bigg Boss OTT 3’ took a dramatic turn when contestants Lovkesh Katariya and Armaan Malik were evicted from the house. In a surprise mid-week elimination, Katariya and Malik, who received the most and least nominations respectively, were asked to leave the house. Their unexpected departure shocked both fellow housemates and viewers.

During the episode, Bigg Boss revealed the purpose behind introducing the outsider theme and that it was a social experiment. The housemates were then tasked to nominate a contestant for elimination.

Lovkesh received the highest number of votes and was then asked to leave the show. Unexpectedly, Armaan, who received the least votes, was also eliminated from ‘Bigg Boss OTT 3’.

Emotions ran high in the house as the contestants bid an emotional farewell to Armaan and Lovkesh. Ranvir Shorey, who had formed a strong bond with both the evicted contestants, was visibly upset. Sana Maqbool was also seen struggling to hold back her tears as she reflected on her shared journey with Armaan and Lovkesh.

The grand finale episode of ‘Bigg Boss OTT 3’ hosted by Anil Kapoor will take place on August 2. The finalists of the season are Sana Maqbool, Kritika Malik, Ranvir Shorey, Naezy and Sai Ketan Rao.
