Archana to return after eviction

Archana was asked to leave the Bigg Boss 16 house after she got into a fight with housemate Shiv. She cried a lot and even begged Shiv to ask Bigg Boss not to throw her out of the house. But that did not happen as Bigg Boss' decision was final. After the incident, contestants Shalin Bhanot, Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia, Sumbul Touqeer, Tina Datta and others were seen protesting and demanding Archana's eviction from the show. Only Soundarya and Priyanka showed her some support.

Now, as per an IANS report, Archana will be coming back on Bigg Boss. It is unclear if Salman Khan will reintroduce her or she make her re-entry over the weekend.
