As Bigg Boss OTT 3's first week ended, hosts Anil Kapoor gave the competitors frank criticism. Though Armaan Malik and his two wives, Payal and Kritika, closed the Weekend Ka Vaar on a particularly depressing note, Lovekesh Kataria and Vishal Pandey received severe education. Sunday saw the eviction of Payal Malik due to insufficient viewer votes.

This marked the second eviction of the debut week, following the earlier elimination of boxer Neeraj Goyat. Payal Malik’s journey in the Bigg Boss house began controversially. During the grand premiere, she recounted how her husband Armaan Malik had cheated on her with her best friend Kritika, who is now his second wife, a revelation that sparked significant backlash.

Throughout the week, Payal was seen having an emotional meltdown, recalling the day Armaan informed her of his marriage to Kritika. The tension between Payal and Kritika was palpable, with viewers noting several indirect jibes exchanged between the two.

Payal, a YouTube content creator alongside Armaan and Kritika, spoke to Indianexpress.com about her Bigg Boss experience. She expressed confidence in her ability to handle the show's challenges, stating, "I am made for Bigg Boss house. I can fight, perform all the tasks and duties, and play smartly. When I could happily survive my husband’s second marriage, I think I can mentally totally survive the Bigg Boss house."

Payal also shared her motivation for joining the show, emphasizing the potential for a transformative experience. "I have seen a lot of people’s lives changing after Bigg Boss. I think if I am able to win the trophy, my life too will change dramatically. I need to win because I have left behind four of my kids for this game. I am here only to win and take the trophy home," she said.

Despite her early eviction, Payal's journey in the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house has left a lasting impression.
