Despite surviving the first eviction after being nominated by Kyland, Hannah wasn’t able to survive her second eviction after a surprise second double eviction–the first back-to-back in the show’s history–put Azah Awasum, and as a result, she was voted out by a 2-0 vote, placing 5th and becoming the 7th member of the Jury.
While participating in Big Brother 23, Hannah entered into the history books as the first Indian-American houseguest on Big Brother US and the first Big Brother US contestant to be born in the 2000s. She was born about two months before the Big Brother 1 (US) houseguests moved in. Additionally, Hannah was the only woman on Big Brother 23 to win both Head of Household and the Power of Veto.
