Shrutika Arjun was a fan favourite on Bigg Boss 18.

Shrutika eliminated from Bigg Boss 18

In the latest episode, Chahat, Shrutika, and Rajat participated in a two-part task to determine who would leave the house. In the first round, all of them had to talk about their strengths and explain why they deserved to stay in the house.

In the next round, all three contestants were asked to reveal the weaknesses of their competitors. After that, Bigg Boss asked the contestants to decide if the eviction should be based on the votes received for the show or on a live audience's judgment.

They unanimously chose the latter. This led to Shrutika's elimination, which was based on the audience's votes. Her fellow contestant, Chum Darang, broke down in tears.

Shrutika says Bigg Boss 18 made her stronger

After her eviction, Shrutika spoke with India Forums about her journey in Bigg Boss. She said, “The house made me stronger. I've never travelled alone in my life. I've never even stayed alone for 24 hours without family or Arjun. And here it was three months, and that too without a phone, extreme.”

Shrutika says she has no regrets

"I broke down twice very badly, and it hit me a lot as everything piled up -- homesickness. I look very happy now. I was like, 'I've come out just a week before the finale. I put in hard work till this one week of finale, and now I'm out. I've no regrets, I'm happy'," she added.
