Following the emotional aftershocks of the season’s first nomination task, the atmosphere inside the Bigg Boss 20 house reached boiling point on Wednesday evening with the official rollout of the first Captaincy Task of Season 20. Titled “Vardaan Ki Gaddi” (The Throne of Boons), the challenge not only conferred absolute immunity from next week’s nominations and access to the lavish private Captain’s Suite, but also gave the victorious housemate the unchecked power to dictate chore rosters, ration distributions, and bedroom assignments.
What was expected to be an orderly battle of wits quickly spiraled into high-octane physical chaos, culminating in a vicious confrontation between MTV Roadies XX winner Kushal Tanwar (Gullu) and television actor Aman Gandhi, exposing deep ideological fissures between the house’s reality-tested youth icons and traditional television stars.

- Task Title: Vardaan Ki Gaddi (The Throne of Boons)
- Primary Contenders: Kushal Tanwar (Gullu), Aasif Khan, Mary Kom, Aamrapali Dubey
- Major Flashpoint: Gullu’s aggressive physical barricade triggering a bitter shouting match with Aman Gandhi & Qazi Touqeer
- Strategic Masterminds: Tanmay Singh (ScoutOP) and Yung DSA orchestrating diversion tactics
- Captain’s Privilege: Guaranteed immunity for Week 2, luxury suite, and exclusive duty allocation authority
The Task Setup: ‘Vardaan Ki Gaddi’ Rules & Contenders
In the late afternoon, Bigg Boss summoned all sixteen housemates to the living room and announced that the first Captaincy race was officially open. In keeping with the season’s “Vardaan” lifeline theme, four contenders were chosen to compete based on their opening-night achievements and endurance tasks: theater powerhouse Aasif Khan, Roadies champion Kushal Tanwar (Gullu), legendary six-time world champion boxer Mary Kom, and Bhojpuri cinema queen Aamrapali Dubey.
The garden area was transformed into an ancient gladiatorial arena. At the center stood an illuminated golden throne surrounded by four concentric circular tracks. Each contender was required to protect their designated colored medallion placed on the throne while rival supporters attempted to dislodge them using giant weighted therapy balls. The last contender whose medallion remained untouched at the end of four buzzer rounds would be officially crowned the first Captain of Bigg Boss Season 20.
The Heated Clash: Gullu vs Aman Gandhi & Qazi Touqeer
Round 2 witnessed the most explosive flare-up of the season so far. As the buzzer sounded, television actor Aman Gandhi charged forward on behalf of Aamrapali Dubey’s camp, attempting to knock Gullu’s blue medallion off the pedestal. Anticipating the charge, Gullu utilized a classic Roadies wrestling lock, planting his shoulder firmly against Aman and physically halting his momentum with jarring force.
Aman immediately retaliated, shouting that Gullu had used illegal physical violence: “This is Bigg Boss, not a street-fighting cage! You cannot push people with your full body weight like an animal!” Gullu refused to back down, getting inches from Aman’s face: “This is a contact task! If you don’t have the spine to take a shoulder check in an arena challenge, go sit on the sofa and do makeup!”
The argument escalated when reality singing veteran Qazi Ahmad Tauqeer intervened, accusing Gullu of bringing “toxic reality-show aggression” into a dignified house. Television star Mahhi Vij attempted to take control as a neutral arbiter, but was shouted down by Gullu’s supporters who pointed out that the senior camp had engaged in identical physical blocking during Round 1.
Strategic Brains: ScoutOP & Yung DSA Form the ‘Gamer-Street’ Axis
While tempers flared on the perimeter, the intellectual highlight of the task came from esports icon Tanmay Singh (ScoutOP) and Pune rapper Yung DSA. Observing that the television actors were solely focused on dislodging Gullu, ScoutOP quietly coordinated a timing play with Aasif Khan.
Relying on his competitive gaming instincts regarding spatial awareness and distraction cycles, ScoutOP instructed Yung DSA to create a vocal distraction near the referee mark. As the defending camp turned their gaze toward the shouting match, ScoutOP swiftly rolled a weighted sphere beneath their defensive line, cleanly knocking Aamrapali’s medallion out of bounds in Round 3. The move left senior housemates stunned, proving that calculated tactical teamwork could easily dismantle sheer numerical strength.
Mary Kom’s Olympic Sportsmanship
Amidst the shouting and shoving, Olympic medalist Mary Kom provided a masterclass in composure. Refusing to engage in petty verbal insults, Mary defended her medallion with impeccable footwork and defensive balance. When Aman Gandhi accidentally bumped into her during a chaotic rebound, Mary calmly patted his shoulder, adjusted her stance, and continued the task without theatrics—earning universal respect from both housemates and live feed viewers watching on JioHotstar.
The Final Verdict: Who Became the First Captain of Bigg Boss 20?
In the tense fourth and final round, only two contenders remained standing: Aasif Khan and Kushal Tanwar (Gullu). With both men battered and exhausted from thirty minutes of non-stop endurance defense, Bigg Boss announced a sudden-death tiebreaker requiring each finalist to convince the remaining twelve housemates to cast a direct allegiance vote.
Leveraging his exceptional humility, relatable theater journey, and widespread respect across both younger creators and senior actors, Aasif Khan secured the decisive majority of votes. Supported unanimously by Mary Kom, ScoutOP, Yung DSA, Isha Rikhi, and Rohed Khan, Aasif Khan was officially crowned the Historic First Captain of Bigg Boss Season 20!
Upon receiving the captain’s armband, an emotional Aasif dedicated his victory to every struggler who ever worked odd jobs to chase an artistic dream: “From washing dishes at banquets to sitting on the Bigg Boss captaincy throne, this is proof that honesty and hard work always triumph.”
Immediate Repercussions: Duty Redistribution & Eviction Stress
Aasif’s immediate task as captain was reforming the contentious kitchen and cleaning duties that had sparked bitter fights between Arshifa Khan and Aamrapali Dubey earlier in the day. Demonstrating diplomatic leadership, Aasif divided kitchen duties into paired teams—pairing senior actors with younger digital stars to foster mutual respect.
Meanwhile, for the four nominated contestants—Kanika Mann, Arshifa Khan, Love Gill, and Uditi Singh—the captaincy outcome served as a sobering reminder of the ticking clock. With voting lines active on JioHotstar until Thursday midnight, their survival rests entirely in the hands of the voting public.
