Social media influencer Nakul Dhul joined 'Bigg Boss 20' as a wildcard guest. Nakul, who has over a million followers on Instagram, became the second person after actor Manish Goel to join the show as part of a wildcard entry during the 'Weekend Ka Vaar' episode, under Salman Khan's guidance.
Manish's arrival surprised the housemates. Nakul's appearance drew public attention to his personality and past controversies, which he himself mentioned during conversations inside the house.
During another discussion, Nakul spoke about an old conflict that led to significant criticism. This incident occurred when a video, allegedly a 'joke,' where he bothers a woman at night, went viral. The clip faced harsh criticism on social media, with many users calling it inappropriate and wrong.
Nakul Dhul's old video also caused controversy in February 2026. In it, he says the phrase: 'One day go after a girl at 11 o'clock. You will find out what fear is like.' He then tells his friends not to harass girls, but instead to go quickly, run suddenly, and then overtake her. During this video, he also uses coarse language and claims that one should not be afraid of girls.
Now, Nakul Dhul has provided explanations regarding this controversial video. In the 'Bigg Boss' house, he stated: 'I received a message where a guy said he was very scared of girls. Then I said: 'Hey brother, you are afraid of girls; girls are afraid of you. When she walks at night, you chase her, and then she... comes out'.
Nakul continued: 'My thought was that you yourself scared the girls, and you are afraid that women are unsafe. Now people interpreted it as if I was telling them to chase girls, and this video went viral. Because of this, a lawsuit was filed against me, and the legal proceedings are ongoing.'
Nakul's arrival took place during the 'Weekend Ka Vaar' episodes, after Manish Goel became the first wildcard contestant guest. Initially, the housemates thought Manish had come to promote some project, but later Salman Khan announced that he would be living in the house.
