The much-awaited Weekend Ka Vaar has arrived on Bigg Boss 19, and Salman Khan once again brought humor, wit, and sharp reality checks to the housemates. While Abhishek Bajaj stepped in as the new captain this week, the spotlight quickly shifted to Gaurav Khanna, who faced the heat from both contestants and Salman himself.
Bigg Boss Task Turns House Against Gaurav
Bigg Boss introduced a dramatic task asking contestants to decide: “Who doesn’t deserve to be in Bigg Boss’s thumbnail?” One by one, names were called out. Bashir pointed at Gaurav, Farhana at Zeeshan, Praneet at Tanya, and Shahbaz at Ashnoor, accusing her of playing defensively. Gaurav retaliated by naming Bashir, accusing him of dictating how the game should be played. Tensions rose further when Amal mocked Awez and Praneet as “disciples,” leading to a fiery argument.
Ultimately, it was Gaurav Khanna whose face ended up blackened, signaling his rejection in the task. Even Neelam, who initially defended him, later accused Gaurav of tailoring his game only for convenience.
Salman Khan’s Hard-Hitting Reality Check
Salman Khan didn’t hold back this weekend. While teasing Farhana to mimic contestants, he directly questioned Gaurav’s contribution in the house. Salman remarked, “You’ve been visible for just 20 minutes the entire week. You’re not playing on the front foot, only reviewing others.”
He also reprimanded Abhishek Bajaj for his weak leadership as a new captain, reminding him that leadership is about strategy, not appeasement.
Neelam vs Awez, and Salman Pulls Up Mridul
Neelam lashed out at Awez, accusing him of taking her name out of revenge and “playing it safe.” Their clash added more drama to the evening. Meanwhile, Salman called out Mridul for always staying under others’ shadows, warning him: “The show is about personality. Don’t let your followers down; this is your chance to shine.”
A Hint at Elimination
As the episode ended, Salman dropped hints about an upcoming elimination, leaving the contestants and viewers on edge.
