Soniya Bansal Exits 'Bigg Boss 17' in First Elimination

In a gripping turn of events, Soniya Bansal, the actress participating in 'Bigg Boss' season 17, became the inaugural contestant to be ousted from the house. She has expressed her strong desire for a potential return as a wildcard entrant, citing her unfinished journey and her fervent wish to continue playing the game. The 'Weekend Ka Vaar' episode of 'Bigg Boss' was an emotional rollercoaster, filled with high-stakes drama and suspense.

The iconic host of the show, Salman Khan, revisited the heated conflicts that had unfolded among the housemates, with the shadow of eviction looming large. Nominated contestants, including Sunny Arya, Soniya, Aishwarya Sharma, Neil Bhatt, and Sana Raees Khan, prepared to bid farewell to the iconic house.

A jaw-dropping moment occurred when Salman Khan unveiled the results of the public vote, revealing Sana and Soniya as the bottom two contestants. Their fate rested in the hands of their fellow housemates, who had to decide who would continue to reside in the master's mohalla and who would be the first to make an early exit. Unfortunately for Soniya, inadequate support from her fellow contestants sealed her fate, marking her as the first evictee of the season and leaving her feeling let down by her supposed friends.

During her two-week tenure on the show, Soniya captivated the audience with her dance performances and magnetic presence. She formed bonds with fellow contestants, including Firoza Khan (Khanzaadi), Aishwarya Sharma, Neil, Ankita Lokhande, Vicky Jain, Isha Malviya, and Abhishek Pandey.

Expressing her disappointment over her eviction, Soniya remarked, "I believe my eviction was unfair. I am committed to returning as a wildcard contestant and pursuing the unfinished chapters of my journey, and I am truly disheartened."

Soniya's time on the show was characterized by conflicts, including a recent fallout with Sana after supporting Abhishek Pandey, which led to heated confrontations. There were also sporadic tense moments with Mannara Chopra, marked by passive-aggressive exchanges.

Regarding Mannara's conduct as a contestant, Soniya shared, "She tends to befriend people and then speak negatively about them and behave badly. I believe it's all part of her strategy to gain attention. Mannara often mentions in interviews that she is Priyanka Chopra's sister, using this as a means to gain popularity."

Soniya had established a connection with the couple Ankita and Vicky, and she addressed the rumors surrounding their relationship. She clarified, "I wasn't particularly close to Vicky, but I had a better rapport with Ankita. Their personal life is harmonious, with minor misunderstandings arising due to time constraints. Vicky's attention to others sometimes affects his ability to give Ankita the time she deserves."

Soniya is now eagerly anticipating the release of her upcoming movie. Her departure from the show left the other housemates concerned about who would take over the kitchen. 'Bigg Boss' airs on Colors and JioCinema.
