Can you believe it has only been 9 episodes of Bigg Boss 8 so far? With so much drama in each episode, it’s getting hard to keep up. Yesterday’s episode saw the first major fight of this season; between Gautam Gulati and Karishma Tanna. During a task on the show, Gautam hurled some abuses at Karishma, causing him to be ostracised by the entire house. His (fake?) tears and apologies didn’t make matters any better as Tanna was in no mood to forgive.
We bring you highlights from tonight’s episode
Gold Star For Diandra!
The episode started on an interesting note as Diandra Soares was spotted acknowledging that Gautam’s apologies were not heartfelt or genuine. And she said this to Gautam’s face instead of behind his back in true Bigg Boss fashion. Well, we don’t think Gautam paid much heed to Diandra’s advice as through the show, Gautam continued to tear up every now and then. Yawn.
The “victim” of the incident Karishma, strangely enough, never screamed at Gautam; just around him. And boy, is the woman loud! Is it just us or is Karishma overdoing it?
Is Deepshikha The New Villian?
Speaking of screaming, Tanna sure has competition in the form of Deepshikha Nagpal. She has joined the housemates only recently from the Secret Society and has way too many feelings already. While Karishma went on screaming “Main task nahi karungi” on one side, Deepshikha howled on the other as Upen Patel had apparently disrespected her. She continued her rant about wanting to be a good team captain even after Karishma’s screams had died down! The award for random footage tonight surely goes to Deepshikha! On a more serious note, Deepshikha is emerging as the newest villain of the house as the inmates think she’s getting over familiar too soon.
Puneet : Friend Or Foe?
So Karishma finally did participate in the task on Bigg Boss’ orders and Team Pritam did everything they could to unseat them but unsurprisingly, Deepshikha’s team won the task. Puneet Issar was being all daddy to Karishma and helping her with towels and getting the team food etc. This clearly did not go down well with his team but noone brought it up out of respect. Strangely enough, at night, he apologised to the girls about him favouring the other team. So support the ‘other’ all day and apologise to ‘own’ at night? Nice, Puneet Ji.
Gautam-Karishma War Verdict
Now for the Gautam-Karishma war, Bigg Boss has witheld Gautam’s right to nominate a contestant for eviction this week, which is a huge right. Karishma continued her hue and cry about being abused on national TV and how Bigg Boss’ punishment isn’t harsh enough. Again, is it just us or is Karishma overdoing it?
Slow Clap For Gautam!
The night ended fairly low on malice. However, moments before the end credits, we caught a glimpse of Gautam’s live performance for a select audience – himself! He looked in the mirror, swore to get everyone’s love back and sang “awarapann, banjaaraapann…” form Jism. Like, Pritam had pointed out so well recently, “Yeh linein nahi chhodta apni.” Slow claps, Gautam!
Coming Soon
Next up, Deepshikha’s team is going to move to the brand new Bigg Boss house. While Karishma is super excited, she’s being hated by Soni Singh and others. Another friendship gone sour? Stay tuned…
