​Bigg Boss 18: From being labelled as Paltu, Samikaran King to his nok-jhok bond with Chahat Pandey; A look at Rajat Dalal's interesting journey

Rajat Dalal, one of the top Bigg Boss 18 contestants, has frequently been chastised for his violent demeanour. So far, the social media star has been dubbed 'paltu' by his competitors because they believe he does not follow through on his own comments and judgements. As the Bigg Boss 18 grand finale approaches, let's take a look at his journey through the season.

2/8

Rajat's major fights in the house

Rajat was known for his aggressive side in the house. The Power Lifter had major fights in the house. Started off with his face-off with Vivian Dsena and Avinash Mishra. He even had a huge brawl with Shehzada Dhami and Nyrraa Banerjii in the house. Despite all the fights, Rajat stood tall and even mended ways with the housemates.

3/8

​Fall out with Digvijay Rathee

When Digvijay entered the house as a wildcard contestant, Rajat Dalal was the only contestant elated to see him in the house. They had been friends but hadn't met before. However, with each passing day in the house, Rajat and Digvijay drifted apart as they made their alliances with two different groups in the house.

4/8

​His bond with Eisha Singh

Rajat has time and again called Eisha his sister in the house. Even when he was the Time God or the one in charge of Ration, he made sure Eisha had no issues. Despite the housemates eating limited meals, he did his best for Eisha and always stood by her like a true brother.

5/8

​Being labelled as 'Paltu' and 'samikaran king'

This season, Rajat was often seen taking sides according to the game due to which housemates labelled him as Paltu and Samikaran King. This season will surely be known for Rajat's game-changing samikarans in the house.

6/8

​Rajat and Shilpa's major brawl

Rajat and Shilpa have always been on the on and off-bond, there came a point in the game where things got extremely heated and Rajat addressed Shilpa disrespectfully. Karan Veer had also gotten extremely furious at Rajat and warned him to be respectful towards women especially seniors in the house.

7/8

​RD's Angels: Eden, Yamini and Kashish

Amid many bonds in the house, Rajat also managed to find his gang. When wildcard contestants Eden and Yamini entered, Rajat found close friends in them and soon the bond became strong with a new gang in the house which had Eden, Yamini, Kashish, Sara and Rajat.

8/8

​Rajat and Chahat's adorable bond

They have had fights but even stood by each other. Fans have dearly loved Rajat and Chahat's bond in the house. Rajat fondly called her Pandey while she was often seen yelling 'Rajat Dalal' whenever they fought.
