Bigg Boss 5: First Female House Captain Sent Packing

It’s been 5 weeks and the audiences clearly have their favourites inside the Bigg Boss 5 House. Regardless of the fights, arguments and fun-filled moments, contestants have managed to win the hearts of audiences that have not only created a loyal viewership but also a large voting base to save their favourite contestants from eviction. Surprisingly though, one person who did not make it to most of the viewers’ favourites list was Mandeep Bevli – as a result of which, she was evicted from the Bigg Boss 5 House.

Mandeep Bevli was among the few contestants who did not actively involve herself in the ups and downs witnessed in the house. Being the first female captain of the house during the third week of Bigg Boss 5, Mandeep aka Mandy, managed to maintain the diplomatic stance that made her everyone’s friend – a title very few contestants can boast of. During the course of the show, Mandeep has been seen being unwell and even suffering a skin rash. However, she always stuck to her guns and moved ahead like a trooper. Being a fair person, Mandeep rarely took sides during an argument and always tried to solve the problem from its root cause. Her cool personality and demeanour was often misunderstood as uninterested and cold – a point that she has justified to hosts Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan as well. The ex-journalist, who was also termed a lazy person by her fellow contestants, claimed to have little to no body strength, which made her incapable of participating in the daily and weekly tasks. On hearing news of Mandeep’s eviction, contestants were surprised and bade her a tearful goodbye. Now that the last calming factor in the Bigg Boss 5 House is out, will the house become a complete war zone?
