'BB 19': Gaurav finally becomes captain, but not for long
What's the story
The reality show Bigg Boss is known for its unexpected twists and turns, and Season 19 has been no different. Gaurav Khanna, who reportedly just became captain after completing a high-stakes task, has been stripped of his leadership. For the unversed, these events haven't been televised yet and are likely to play out during Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday episodes.
Controversial choice
Contestants outraged over Khanna's selfish decision
During a tense task in the App Room, Khanna had to choose between two options: becoming the new Captain with a 30% grocery cut and nominating every housemate for eviction, or making Shehbaaz Badesha the Captain with 100% groceries and no nominations. As per Film Window, Khanna chose power, triggering mass nominations and immediate outrage from fellow contestants like Farrhana Bhatt and Kunickaa Sadanand.
House unrest
Bigg Boss intervenes in chaos, calls for house meeting
The situation escalated as contestants began to question the fairness of Bigg Boss, alleging bias toward Khanna. They wondered why this option was given only to him. In response to this growing chaos, Bigg Boss called all housemates for an assembly and asked them to vote on who they believed should be the rightful Captain.
Leadership change
Majority vote for new captain leaves Khanna vulnerable
In a surprising turn of events, the majority of contestants voted for Badesha as the new Captain. This decision stripped Khanna of his captaincy and left him vulnerable. To add insult to injury, Bigg Boss announced that while Badesha would be the new Captain, the grocery limit would remain at 30% and all contestants would stay nominated, including Khanna. This unexpected twist has left Khanna isolated in the house. Fans can catch the new episodes of Bigg Boss on JioHotstar.
