New Delhi: In today's episode of ‘Bigg Boss 16’, Archana Gautam, who’s known for being extremely possessive about the kitchen, will be seen in her element. The contestants and viewers expected that after coming back to the house following an impromptu eviction, Archana would have mended her ways. To the disappointment of a few housemates, she is still very much the obstinate contestant, who is obsessed with cooking and bickering over kitchen duties. Unafraid to raise her voice even against her friends, Archana gets into a huge fight with her bestie Priyanka Chahar Choudhary, whose support for Archana has been unwavering after her eviction which was revoked two days ago. It all began with Priyanka helping Archana prepare lunch and the latter gives Priyanka the additional task of chopping the vegetables. Archana reprimands Priyanka for being unhygienic and kaamchor. The fight escalates to the point where Ankit intervenes and reminds Archana that Priyanka was the first to stand up for her when her eviction was being considered. Archana answers by saying ‘ehsaan mat dikhana’ and takes the mudda to a whole new level by pushing Priyanka’s buttons with the question ‘Mummy-Papa ne sikhaya nahin kya?’ She also instigates Priyanka by saying that the entire country knows that she is footage savvy. One would think that their friendship would be solid after Archana’s return to the house, but the opposite seems to be happening.
In the middle of fights and ever-changing equations among the housemates, the nominations task comes along to up the ante in the coveted house. Based on the legendary story of ‘The Shepherd and the Wolf’, the nomination task entails sanchalak Sajid Khan listing off his favorite contestants. These contestants stand immune from eviction for the week and the non-favourites must nominate each other in a farm set-up where makeshift sheeps will be assigned names of the non-favorites. To nominate a contestant, each non-favorite must pick a sheep of their choice and take it to the wolf as prey and cite their reason for nominating them.
While the nominations are being carried out, the housemates are captured discussing Priyanka and Ankit's much-talked-about equation. The two share a chemistry that’s beyond friendship. The contestants speculate what the couple’s status is currently. A few housemates agree that Ankit Gupta is unable to play his game because of Priyanka. Some of them think that they may have ended their relationship before coming to the house. It will be interesting to watch the mystery of Priyanka-Ankit’s chemistry unfold in the coming episodes.
‘Bigg Boss 16’ airs every Monday to Friday at 10.00 PM and every Saturday – Sunday at 9.30 PM on Colors and Voot.
