Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Bigg Boss 20 contestant Qazi Touqeer has been battling fever for several days inside the reality show house, with his management team confirming on 6 October that he was recently examined by a doctor after feeling low on energy. According to a statement issued by Team Qazi, he continues to remain inside the Bigg Boss house while his team stays in close contact with the show's producers regarding his condition.
What Team Qazi Said
The update was shared on Qazi Touqeer's official Instagram stories, addressed as a 'heartfelt update for the Qazi family.' The statement confirmed that Qazi had been 'dealing with fever for the past few days' and had been taking rest 'whenever he gets the chance.'
'Recently, he was feeling a little low on energy and was taken to the medical room, where he was examined by the doctor. He continues to be inside the Bigg Boss house, and we remain in touch with the BB team regarding his well-being,' the statement read.
His team added that despite the illness, Qazi has continued to participate in house activities and maintain his characteristic energy, urging fans to 'stay calm, keep faith and continue showering Qazi with your love, prayers and positive energy.'
Qazi's Condition and Current Status
The statement clarified that Qazi has not been removed from the house and is recuperating within the show's premises under medical supervision. His team expressed confidence in a full recovery, writing: 'Once he's feeling completely back to himself, we know our most energetic rockstar will be back with his full aura and unstoppable energy.'
Notably, this is not an uncommon development on the show — contestants living in a confined, high-stress environment with disrupted sleep schedules are frequently susceptible to illness. Medical rooms have been a part of the Bigg Boss setup across multiple seasons for precisely this reason.
