Things took a rather tense turn inside the Bigg Boss 20 house when Mahhi Vij found herself on the receiving end of criticism from Love Gill’s mother during a family task. What was meant to be a heartfelt moment for the contestants quickly spiraled into yet another controversy, leaving Mahhi visibly shaken and questioning how her journey on the show is being portrayed.
During the task, contestants had the chance to hear heartfelt messages from their families, but they had to make a sacrifice to earn that privilege. When Love Gill received her mother's audio message, her mother seized the opportunity to address Mahhi regarding her earlier comments about Love. She reminded Mahhi that she has a daughter of her own and suggested that she should consider that before making such remarks.

While it’s natural for family members to defend their loved ones, bringing conflict into an already emotional task put Mahhi in a tough spot. Love's mother could have approached the situation differently instead of using a moment meant for family messages to publicly confront another contestant.

Nov 5, 2026This issue traces back to the argument involving Love Gill, Scout OP, and his girlfriend Kaashvi. During a chat with Arishfa, Mahhi had voiced her frustration over Love's behavior towards Scout, questioning why Love continued to seek his attention despite his girlfriend allegedly insulting her. Mahhi even made a bold remark about exposing Love's lack of self-respect if she chose to speak out about the situation.
When faced with her mother's comments, Mahhi denied that she had made the statement in the way it was being portrayed. However, the incident clearly took a toll on her, and she later broke down while confiding in Uditi Singh and Arishfa.
The actress shared her frustration with the show's producers, feeling like her comments were being put under a microscope while similar things said by other contestants went unnoticed. She expressed, "I just feel like they’re only focusing on what I say. If that’s how it’s going to be, I won’t stick around. I don’t even care about the money; they can keep it."
Mahhi went on to explain her concerns about how her family and others outside the house would view her after seeing the episodes. She wondered why she was being targeted and emphasized that she didn’t join the show to tarnish her reputation.
