Bigg Boss announces the new captaincy task and explains the rules. He states that the contenders will participate in a merry-go-round task. Each player will climb onto the rotating platform, and the housemates will be responsible for choosing and seating them. Surrounding them are four houses, and every contestant can enter any house of their choice.
Bigg Boss then reveals a twist: a “dictator” will have the power to evict one house member of their choice. The evicted contestant will be out of the captaincy race, while the remaining contestant from that house will move ahead in the competition. Bigg Boss also clarifies that Baseer will not participate in today’s task. He mentions that each round will end with one contestant getting evicted.
As the task begins, Baseer immediately targets Gaurav Khanna, planning to evict him. However, Gaurav cleverly enters Nehal’s room, which earns him praise from Farahana for his smart move.
In the first round, Mridul and Armaan are eliminated. Baseer expresses that he doesn’t want either Abhishek Bajaj or Gaurav to become the captain.
Later, Baseer, Amal, and Mridul discuss their strategy to eliminate Awez, Natalia, and Nagma to shape the competition in their favor.
During the third round, Neelam gets evicted. Zeishan questions her about her loyalties and asks if she’s playing in alliance with Gaurav. Neelam denies it. Zeishan then accuses her of following Gaurav’s signals, which influenced her decision to switch houses. Tanya joins in and confronts Neelam, saying she has become Gaurav’s puppet.
Baseer questions Ashnoor about whether she’s also receiving instructions from Gaurav. Ashnoor firmly denies this, saying she would never trust or follow him.
In the next round, Pranit and Tanya are evicted. Baseer and Amal encourage Zeishan to get locked in with either Ashnoor or Kunika for the next move. Eventually, Zeishan, Gaurav, and Nehal are eliminated in the final round of the task.
This leaves Ashnoor, Kunika, and Abhishek as the final captaincy contenders.
Baseer informs Zeishan that Nagma and Awez were against making him captain. Meanwhile, Gaurav tells Neelam that Kunika is unfair and suggests they should support Ashnoor, who seems more neutral.
Later, Tanya is seen getting emotional on camera, saying she misses her mother.
Zeishan asks Neelam to reveal what Gaurav said to her about Kunika. Tanya accuses Gaurav and Kunika of working as a team. Gaurav later tells Kunika that she seems to be playing both sides and urges her to take a firm stand. He says he supports Ashnoor for captaincy. Kunika disagrees and defends her stance. Gaurav believes Tanya and her group are trying to manipulate Kunika.
Amaal tells Kunika that Gaurav is urging others not to vote for her. In response, Kunika decides to stop cooking to test if people respect her beyond her kitchen duties.
Later, Gaurav and Pranit inform Ashnoor that Tanya doesn’t want her to win. Ashnoor questions Gaurav’s motives for supporting her. Gaurav says he wants to understand her game better. He also confronts Kunika about her anger, to which she says she feels betrayed by him and asks him to stop backstabbing her. She admits she feels like a fool for trusting him.
Gaurav confides in Awez that Baseer is trying to manipulate him. Abhishek agrees. Awez clarifies that he’s not influenced by Baseer, despite Baseer’s efforts to make Zeishan the captain, which ultimately failed.
Kunika tells Zeishan that she asked Gaurav not to call her “mother” if he doesn’t respect the sentiment. Zeishan supports her decision.
Later, Abhishek and Nehal argue about food. Gaurav steps in, advising Abhishek to speak respectfully. Abhishek dismisses Nehal as an “attention seeker” and says he also needs to confront Baseer, who’s becoming overconfident.
In a lighter moment, Tanya asks Pranit to teach her makeup skills. Pranit encourages her to stay natural, telling her she’s beautiful without makeup, but then jokingly compares her to a donkey, which hurts Tanya’s feelings.
Finally, Bigg Boss brings attention back to the captaincy race. The competition between Ashnoor, Kunika, and Abhishek will be held on stage. He says it’s time to seal the fate of one contestant as the first captain of the house. The decision will be made democratically, with input from the housemates — but with a twist.
Bigg Boss announces that Tanya will have the final say in the captaincy decision.
With tension high and stakes even higher, the stage is set for a dramatic showdown among the three contenders.
