I love surprises and so do the Bigg Boss 10 inmates. On day 26, they were woken up not just with a song, but with a singer. Ankit Tiwari, the soulful voice of Teri Galliyan from Ek Villain is in the house to wake up our sleepy heads. What luck man! I wish Arijit Singh would sing me a song every morning too :P
Soon after, Neha Sharma, Aditiya Seal and Aashim Gulati, the stars of Tum Bin 2, followed Ankit into the house. this is such a pleasant change from the bickering. The day starts on a musical note and goes on to becoming a dancy one. Neha gives Lopa, Mona and Lokesh a task, to choose male partners to shake a leg with. Lopa picks Gaurav, Mona selects Manu and Lokesh pairs up with Aditiya Seal.
the music is working its magic. Out of nowhere, Om Swami apologises to Monalisa by touching her feet. But what’s he apologising for? Oh, now I remember. He was a bit too mean to her during the Parda Faash task. I wonder if Mona can see through this fake move, but I surely can.
Let’s shift the focus to the first captain of the house. Bani has been on cloud nine ever since Bigg Boss picked her. But she’s made to take an oath. So Bani promises to play the part responsibly and with full sincerity. Aur phir ho gayi Bani shuru. She’s discussing housework and delegating with flair. Sabka Bigg Boss banna itnaa aasaan nahin hai.
But first things first. Bani gets her own separate bed and the power to allocate beds to the rest of them. So who does she bring closer to her? Rahul, Gaurav, Karan and Rohan of course! What a move. But did she forget Manveer and Navin? Poor boys are pissed off. But does Bani care? Ha!
Lokesh, Mona and Manu need to a reason to fight and today it’s over a floor mop. Manu is busy wiping the bathroom floor clean when Lokesh walks all over it. Dono mein hota hai jhagdaa but it doesn’t end there. Lokesh dips her feet in the pool with Manveer is cleaning it. She obviously refuses to budge. Both Manveer and Manu shout out to Bani like the front benchers in school call out to their teacher.
Chuck all that. When it comes to giving a prize and a punishment, guess who Bani picks? Lopa and Manveer get to do the dishes as Bani’s ‘punished’ and Manu gets to have lunch with her as the prize winner. But Lopa loses it at this point. She declares that she’s not going to cook all week or cater to any special requests. Do you think Bani’s decision was unfair? Rahul tells Gaurav and Rohan that it was. After all, un mein se kisi ko bhi to ‘inam’ mil sakta tha na.
Before the day ends, Bigg Boss asks Bani to pick two inmates that she wants to send to jail. Hmm, now that’s no easy task for the captain of the ship. After all, she’ll have a lot of answers to give to Salman and Bigg Boss over the weekend. To add to her stress, Manveer tells her that she’s not playing a fair game. She gives it back to him saying that he’ll only get it if he becomes the captain. Ouch!
Now Bani, kuch toh log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna. But any guesses on who’s going to jail? Leave your comments below.
