Rahul Mahajan, one of the key contenders for the prize of reality show Bigg Boss 2 has been evicted this week.

His eviction came in the wake of the incident in which attempt was made by him and other Bigg Boss-2 members Raja Chaudhury, Zulfi Sayed and Ashutosh Kaushik to jump the house.

After the crew stopped the housemates from going out of the house, Bigg Boss 2 demanded an apology from all of them as it is against the rules to break out of the house. “The other three apologized but Rahul refused to do so. That’s why he was evicted from the house,” said a source.

Sources said that Rahul’s sister, Poonam Mahajan landed in Lonavala — where the Bigg Boss house is located — to take her brother back to Mumbai. But sources also say that he has to stay back to complete his shoot with the show’s host Shilpa Shetty

Endemol’s Managing Director (India) Deepak Dhar was unavailable for comment despite several attempts. Endemol sources refused to confirm or deny Rahul Mahajan’s eviction.

Rahul Mahajan on his part wanted enough of the show and desired to be evicted with all dues for staying 90 days in the house, cleared.
