Day 17: The housemates wake up and continue with their weekly task of being parents and kids. The overgrown children are having a gala time as they get to play all day and their parents pamper them while giving the kids everything they ask for. The parents, though a little annoyed, seem to be enjoying the roles assigned to them.
Shakti and Sidharth contemplate about captain nominations for the coming week. The duo analyzes and evaluates every contestant to figure out who will be the best person for the role of captain. Sidharth was called into the confession room and asked to select two people out of which any one will be elected as the captain for the following week. Though Sidharth doesn't reveal to the housemates why he had been called into the confession room, a nervous Mahek hints to Sidharth about who should be nominated for the captain's position. Later, Sidharth is called back to the confession room to enumerate his final selection. Bigg Boss then reveals the names to the other contestants in the house and permits them to campaign and lobby for votes so that they are elected for the position.
Mandeep and Shakti discuss Sidharth's inclusion in Pooja Bedi's gang and how this will strengthen their group while exposing the others to elimination. Amar mocks Sidharth and his lack of tact to which Mahek finally expresses her views about the newcomer of the house.
Amar is given a secret task until daybreak to convince 7 members of the house to call a re-nomination for the post of captain and get their decision to Bigg Boss or convince Sidharth to change his decision in front of the camera. Amar puts in full efforts to try to change the minds of the contestants who originally seemed satisfied with Sidharth's decision.
Ending the captaincy discussion and ensuing tension, Bigg Boss adds a fun twist to the weekly task. The kids of the house are allotted a task of organizing a birthday party for Sidharth, whose nickname for the weekly task is Chinku. The fellow kids were required to decorate the house, make personalized greeting cards, cut a birthday cake and provide entertainment for the entire group. Raageshwari, who has been renamed Doll for the weekly task, was asked to lead the preparations for the bacha party. The 'parents' and 'kids' alike look at this as a chance to forget about their differences and have some fun.
Udne Ki Aasha
