Gautam Gulati, Dimpy Mahajan and Pritam in a still from Bigg Boss 8.
In the Bigg Boss house, there's a fair degree of turbulence. Thanks to Bigg Boss' manipulative games and tasks, the contestants once again find themselves at loggerheads. As Diandra Soares' captaincy comes to an end, Bigg Boss begins the nomination procedure for the next week's captain.
While the outgoing captain Diandra has to nominate one housemate of her choice, the other contestants have to vote for one candidate who will compete with the winners of luxury budget task
Sab Durandhar Hotel Ke Andar - Dimpy Mahajan and Pritam. Diandra selects Praneet Bhatt and Gautam Gulati is voted for the competition by the other contestants.
While competing for the task, which
Bigg Boss calls
Captaincy Mere Haath Mein, Praneet and Pritam call of their friendship with Gautam who, in turn, has been doubting Praneet and Pritam's loyalty towards him. Gautam later tries to call a truce with Pritam and Praneet in Puneet Issar's presence but to no avail. As a part of the task, the four contestants are required to hold on to a ring and the last person hanging on to the ring will become the new captain.
Meanwhile, Diandra and Karishma Tanna's bonding too hits a rocky patch as the latter is hurt that Diandra did not nominate her for the post of captain. She complains about the same to Aarya Babbar and Upen Patel, who are shocked to know that Karishma wanted to be nominated for captain.
In an attempt at diversion, Bigg Boss announces a new task wherein the contestants can claim some luxury items to make their stay comfortable for the coming week. As a part of the task, a contestant will have to drive a car in the activity area while another contestant pulls off danglers containing names of the items.
Aarya gets to drive the car, while Pritam is designated to pull off the labels. The duo successfully collects 37 items in 5 minutes. Unfortunately for Karishma, her make-up isn't among the 37 items as the label is pulled after the end of the task. Thus, Karishma will have to go without her makeup for another week!
