Bigg Boss 17 Nominations: Drama Unfolds as Three Contestants Face Eviction

Just two days have passed since the premiere of Bigg Boss 17, and this popular reality show is already creating quite a buzz. From Salman Khan's return as the host to the unique theme of "dil, dimag aur dum," the intriguing mix of contestants, and more, Bigg Boss 17 has captivated its audience. For those unfamiliar with the show, Bigg Boss 17 now plays host to 17 celebrities, each vying for a coveted spot in the house.

As Bigg Boss 17 gains momentum, there's been much speculation surrounding the per-day remuneration for these celebrities. It's no surprise that viewers are eager to know who the highest-paid contestant on the show is. If you had your bets on Munawar Faruqui being the top earner, you're in for a surprise. According to a report by Spotboye, Ankita Lokhande has claimed the title of the highest-paid contestant on Bigg Boss 17, raking in a handsome sum of Rs 12 lakhs per week.

Interestingly, Munawar Faruqui, who previously triumphed on Kangana Ranaut's Lock Upp, secures the position of the second highest-paid contestant on Bigg Boss 17, with a weekly salary in the range of Rs 7-8 lakhs. It's clear that these renowned celebrities are demanding a substantial fee for their stay in the Bigg Boss house. Meanwhile, Bigg Boss 17 is about to take a dramatic turn, as the show is set to witness its first round of nominations for this season. Three contestants, one from each group, are now facing potential elimination.

As per media reports, Mannara Chopra, representing the "dil" group, Naved Sole from the "dimag" group, and Abhishek Kumar from the "dum" group have been nominated for eviction in the first week. Notably, it was the house members themselves who chose to nominate these contestants. As teased in a promo, Bigg Boss will task the house members with nominating the person in their respective groups whom they believe to be a casting mistake and undeserving of a spot in the house.
