Bigg Boss 20 16th September 2026 Written Update: Mahhi Targets Yung as Gullu Enters the Captaincy Race
The 16th September 2026 episode of Bigg Boss 20 continues Day 10 with the captaincy task getting increasingly intense. Mahhi’s decision to target Yung creates a major rift between them, while Gullu eventually earns his place in the captaincy race.
At the same time, Asif and Aman clash again, and Qazi finds himself caught in the middle of several house dynamics.
Mahhi Targets Yung in the Captaincy Task
The second round of the captaincy task begins with Kanika as the operator.
Mary, Mahhi and Amrapali take part in the task and have to throw coloured sponges at the male contender they want to eliminate.
Mahhi immediately targets Yung.
She explains that Yung has already been captain and therefore should not get another opportunity.
Yung is shocked by her decision.
Meanwhile, Scout says that if a girl hits him, he will respond as well.
Isha corrects him over his comments about the colour reaching his eyes.
Scout insists that the audience will decide what exactly he said.
Kanika Eliminates Yung and Rohed
Kanika eventually makes her decision and eliminates Yung and Rohed from the task.
Gullu appreciates Kanika’s approach and calls her a fair operator.
Yung, however, is deeply disappointed.
Love asks him who was targeting him.
Yung confirms that Mahhi was responsible.
He explains that he had tried to protect Asif and cannot understand why Mahhi chose him simply because he had already been captain.
Amrapali tells Yung to recognise Mahhi’s true nature.
Yung and Scout then decide that they will no longer support Mahhi.
Yung Breaks His Friendship with Mahhi
The situation creates a major change in their relationship.
Yung says he feels Mahhi’s reasoning does not justify targeting him.
He decides to distance himself from her.
Mahhi, meanwhile, remains convinced that Yung’s reaction proves he has not handled the situation maturely.
The former friendship now turns into another house rivalry.
Scout Becomes Another Talking Point
Isha later asks Gullu whether he also heard Scout’s earlier comments.
Gullu says that whenever he supports a woman in the house, people accuse him of playing the “woman card” to move forward in the game.
Elsewhere, Rhiti and Scout discuss the situation involving Arishfa.
Yung interrupts their conversation.
Rhiti asks whether Yung is upset with her because she threw a sponge at him.
She explains that Yung was already a captain.
Yung clarifies that his issue is not simply about captaincy.
For him, it is about fairness within the task.
Isha Gets Emotional
The latest task also affects Isha emotionally.
Aman notices her distress and asks her to come back to the present.
Isha becomes emotional.
Mahhi later says that Isha can be irritating at times and claims she remains lazy throughout the day before suddenly becoming active.
The tension between different groups continues to grow.
Qazi and Asif Have an Emotional Moment
Late at night, Qazi sings in the garden.
Before that, Uditi, Arishfa and Qazi discuss Scout.
Uditi says Arishfa can be extremely loud and that communicating with her can become difficult.
Qazi later asks Asif whether he will recover.
Asif reassures him.
Qazi says that all he wants is love.
Asif hugs him, leaving Qazi with a funny reaction.
The conversation then turns serious.
Qazi admits that it is difficult for him to pretend.
Asif says he is unsure whether Qazi is genuinely being himself or playing a game.
He worries that if Qazi is acting, his behaviour could affect people’s ability to trust him outside the house.
Yung Refuses to Speak to Mahhi
Yung deliberately avoids Mahhi.
Mahhi then speaks to the camera and says Yung’s behaviour shows that he does not have a big heart.
She argues that Yung was already captain and had wanted to save Asif, but his reaction now makes her feel that the other side is behaving like a bully group.
Meanwhile, Kanika and Gullu share a lighter moment while cooking.
Kanika asks Gullu to prepare egg and chilla for her, leading to playful banter.
A New Group Forms Against Mahhi
Amrapali tells Qazi that she could never nominate him because she loves his singing.
Love, Scout, Amrapali, Yung and Asif then come together and discuss Mahhi.
Mahhi later asks Kanika for water.
The two jokingly pretend to be devrani and jethani, entertaining everyone.
Mahhi admits to Uditi that she misses Yung.
Uditi advises her to speak to him.
Mahhi refuses.
She says she will not go to Yung first and insists that her decision is not because of ego.
She wants Yung to come to her.
Gullu Wins a Place in the Captaincy Race
Bigg Boss then announces the third round.
Arishfa becomes the operator.
Aman, Gullu and Asif become the male contenders, while Uditi, Kanika and Isha participate in the elimination.
After the round, Gullu wins and secures his place in the captaincy race.
He thanks Isha and Kanika for helping him reach this stage.
Asif and Aman Clash Again
Aman claims that he fought like a true fighter during the task.
This leads to another heated argument between him and Asif.
Uditi tells Arishfa that she does not like Asif’s behaviour.
She says his gestures during the task crossed a line and warns that she will respond if he provokes her.
Mahhi also criticises Asif and says she has already lost respect for him.
The house once again finds itself divided over the argument.
Female Contestants Face a New Captaincy Challenge
Bigg Boss then announces another stage of the captaincy battle for the female contestants.
They have to make short reels featuring other housemates.
Each contestant gets two minutes, while the others can like or dislike the performance.
Arishfa makes a reel for Scout and recites a poem.
She receives seven likes.
Love imitates Mahhi, Aman and Arishfa and gets nine likes and six dislikes.
Rhiti performs a song for Mary and Qazi and receives 15 likes.
Amrapali imitates Qazi and Mahhi and gets six likes and nine dislikes.

As a result, Rhiti, Mahhi and Kanika join Gullu as the captaincy contenders.
Qazi Finds Himself Caught Between Groups
Uditi questions Qazi about supporting the other team.
Arishfa is also upset because she expected Qazi to support her.
Qazi makes it clear that he will make his own decisions.
He says that although he may not always support them in the game, he still cares about them.
Qazi asks Arishfa to understand what is in his heart.
Arishfa admits that she expects more from him.
Qazi comforts her.
Meanwhile, Amrapali refuses to support Rhiti.
She accuses Rhiti of sitting between both groups.
Mahhi later regrets bringing up the promise involving her daughter during her argument with Amrapali.
Bigg Boss 20 16th September 2026 Precap
The captaincy race enters another stage as Gullu, Rhiti, Kanika and Mahhi get a chance to move forward by taking one life from a nominated contender.
Gullu gets the opportunity to make a nomination.
Meanwhile, another major confrontation breaks out between Asif and Qazi.
Bigg Boss 20 16th September 2026 Episode Review
The episode keeps the captaincy task moving at a fast pace, but the real story is the changing alliances.
Mahhi targeting Yung may have been a strategic decision, yet it creates a personal fallout that appears much bigger than the task itself.
One sponge may have eliminated Yung from the race, but Mahhi’s decision also appears to have eliminated their friendship.
Gullu’s rise is another interesting development. He now finds himself among the captaincy contenders after receiving support from Kanika and Isha.
Qazi remains one of the most complicated figures in the house because contestants increasingly want his loyalty, while he insists on making his own choices.
And with Asif and Qazi heading towards another confrontation, the captaincy battle may soon become secondary to the personal rivalries developing inside the house.
Overall Rating: 4.7/5
A high-energy episode with shifting alliances, a major Mahhi–Yung fallout and Gullu’s entry into the captaincy race. The next round could completely reshape the power dynamics, especially with another Asif–Qazi clash already brewing.
