It is probably for the first time in the history of 'Bigg Boss' that an inmate from an earlier season will be entering the ongoing edition of the reality show. Vikas Gupta, who had earned the tag of ‘Mastermind’ during the eleventh season, will soon be locked up in the show. What’s interesting is that he won’t enter just for a few hours, but will continue to stay on indefinitely.
A source associated with the reality show tells us, “While there is a twist with Vikas’ inclusion in the show, he will play and also be a part of the nomination process like other contestants. He is currently being looked at as Devoleena Bhattacharjee’s replacement.” How will the show’s original mastermind change the dynamics inside the house? Well, only time will tell that.

It is not clear whether Vikas Gupta would compete with the existing contestants or not.

Mumbai: "Bigg Boss 11" mastermind Vikas Gupta is the latest entrant in the reality TV show's ongoing season.
As per a source, Vikas is stepping into the shoes of Devoleena Bhattacharjee who got evicted last week due to medical issues.
"Vikas will enter the show before Salman's Weekend Ka Var episode. Most probably by Thursday, the audience can see him inside the 'Bigg Boss' house," the source added.
It is not clear whether Vikas would compete with the existing contestants or not.
Vikas emerged as the second runner up of the show in 2017, and due to his performance, he was given the title of "Mastermind". Now it is to see how he spices up the game more.
Earlier this week, former contestants Arhaan Khan and Shefali Bagga re-entered the house along with actress Madhurima Tuli.
Also, due to increased TRPs, the show's makers have decided to extend the current season till February next year.
