For Week 6, the weekend episodes aired on Saturday and Sunday, while a special segment titled Haaye Daiya with Ravi Bhaiyya Garda Udaa Denge was featured on Friday.

Theme

The theme for this season is "Time Ka Tandav". This season Bigg Boss will play with time, he will see the contestants past, present and future.

Morning anthem

Like the last two seasons, this season also has a morning anthem titled Bigg Boss, Bigg Boss Happy, Happy Morning Hain instead of the usual wake-up songs.

Eye logo

The color scheme of the eye combines blue, gold, and white. The design prominently includes a stylized eye at the center, which has a striking blue color with detailed textures, resembling an iris and pupil. Surrounding the eye is a circular clock motif, with gold outlines and clock markings, suggesting a theme of time or vigilance.

The teaser was released on 16 September 2024 voiced by Salman Khan, announcing the arrival and theme of this season. On 22 September 2024, Colors TV released a new promo featuring Khan, marking his return to the show after absence in the OTT version while announcing the premiere date for the new season.

House

The house of this season had a "timeless cave and fort-like" theme. The house was located in Film City, Mumbai for the sixth time. The house had seven sections: living area, kitchen area, dining and sitting area, bedroom area, garden area, jail and confession room. A large Trojan horse structure is at the house's entrance. BB jail of the house resembled a cave, with white walls, small beds and a telephone located inside the house next to the bedroom. The swimming area has rocky surroundings and the bathroom was designed like a Turkish hammam. As in the two previous seasons, the house's entrance and exit were through a tunnel instead of the main door. This season there were 107 cameras.

Weekly summary

The main events in the Bigg Boss 18 house are summarised in the table below.

Week 1	Entrances	During the Grand Premiere, host Salman Khan welcomed new housemates and introduced them to audience. Chaahat, Shehzada, Avinash, Shilpa, Tajinder, Shrutika, Nyrraa, Chum, Karanveer, Rajat, Muskan, Arfeen, Sara, Eisha, Gunratan, Hema, Vivian and Alice entered house in order.
	Twists	On the Grand Premiere, Bigg Boss predicted that Chaahat would end up in jail, but she could change her fate by convincing two other housemates to take her place. If she failed, Chaahat would go to jail. After convincing Tajinder and Hema, Chaahat avoided jail, while Tajinder and Hema were sent to jail until further orders from Bigg Boss. During the Grand Premiere, Bigg Boss also predicted that Vivian and Alice would be the top two contestants of the season, and that voting lines would only open for them if they both reach the finale. On Day 2, Bigg Boss presented two options to the jailed Tajinder and Hema: a) they could gain control over ration by remaining in jail until further orders from Bigg Boss, or b) they could be released from jail and become ordinary housemates like the others. Tajinder and Hema chose option a, allowing them to control the ration while in jail. Ration supplies were sent from the storeroom to the jail, where they would be distributed as they saw fit. On Day 4, Bigg Boss announced that jailmates Tajinder and Hema could be released if two other housemates took their place in jail. The first to go was Chaahat, who volunteered. Bigg Boss then asked all the housemates who supported the release of both Tajinder and Hema. Karanveer, Eisha and Avinash did not support their release. Consequently, Bigg Boss allowed them to choose another housemate to accompany Chaahat in jail. The three agreed on Gunratan, but he declined to go. As a result, since neither Chaahat nor Gunratan was imprisoned, Tajinder and Hema remained incarcerated. On Day 5, Bigg Boss gave Tajinder and Hema the chance to be released from jail if they sacrificed all the rations currently present in the house, promising them daily basic rations. They both agreed to this arrangement and were released from jail, while all the rations were returned to Bigg Boss. During the grand premiere, a donkey named Gadhraj was sent into the house, where he was tied in the garden near the smoking area. On Day 7, host Salman Khan announced the end of his presence in the house.
	Nominations	Maut Ka Farmaan On Day 3, the nomination process was held in the garden area, where all housemates' photos were displayed on the Maut Ka Farmaan board. First, each housemate nominated one contestant. Later, the archer would shoot an arrow at the photo of the nominated housemate. Any housemate who received three or more nominations would be nominated for eviction; those receiving less than three nominations would be safe. The archer had ten arrows, allowing housemates to nominate a maximum of ten contestants.
		Chaahat, Gunratan, Karanveer, Muskan, and Avinash were nominated for the first week's weekend eviction process.
	Time God	None
	Tasks	On Day 1, Bigg Boss assigned a task to the housemates to earn rations. During this task, an hourglass was placed in the garden, where housemates in pairs needed to keep an eye on it while sitting on a horse. Each pair would first fill the sand kept near the hourglass up to the yellow line. They then needed to open a knob at the bottom to allow the sand to flow from the hourglass until it reached the red line mark. After that, the pair would stop the knob and hand it over to the next pair, who would repeat the same procedure. However, the housemates failed to comply with the rules. The first violation was by Shilpa, who fell asleep while watching the hourglass, and the second violation was Karanveer, who started the task alone instead of in a pair. As a result, Bigg Boss halted the task and announced that instead of 16 boxes of rations, he would only provide six boxes.
		Task cancelled
	Sponsored	On Day 7, Bellavita gifted perfume to the housemates.
	Exits	On Day 7, there was no eviction. However Gadhraj was removed from the house.
Week 2	Twists	On Day 11, Following the hunger strike, Bigg Boss opened the confession room for the housemates and asked them to state one demand they wanted fulfilled to resolve their problems in the future. Later, Bigg Boss revealed that only Avinash, Shrutika, Tajinder, and Chum requested ration for all housemates. Bigg Boss announced he would provide the ration, but to receive it, the housemates needed to change one significant event from the past. The two events to consider were the release of Tajinder and Hema from jail and the absence of any eviction among the nominated housemates last week. Bigg Boss presented two options for the housemates to choose from: the first option involved selecting any two housemates to go to jail, and the second option was the eviction of one nominated housemate among Chaahat, Karanveer, Muskan, and Avinash. The housemates initially selected the first option but couldn't reach a decision. Eventually, they chose the second option, evicting Avinash by majority vote. Later, Bigg Boss announced that Avinash would exit the house, only to unexpectedly return to jail with control of the house's ration, which Bigg Boss granted in exchange for making the decision.
	Nominations	Tandav Express On Day 10, Bigg Boss announced that, as the Time God, Arfeen was safe from nominations and asked him for two names he wanted to nominate. He named Tajinder and Muskan. Later, Bigg Boss revealed that there would be a task involving a station named Khatra Nagari, where a train named Tandav Express had arrived. Only passengers carrying food items could board this train to become safe from nominations. The last two housemates to enter the train or the two housemates who remained at the station after the train's departure would be nominated. The shopkeepers distributing food items to the housemates in the first round would be Tajinder and Muskan, as they were nominated by Arfeen. In the subsequent rounds, the two housemates who were nominated would become the shopkeepers.
		Muskan, Tajinder, Rajat, Chaahat, Avinash, Shrutika, Shilpa, Karanver, Hema, Alice were nominated for the second week’s weekend eviction process.
	Time God Task	On Day 9, Bigg Boss assigned a task in the activity area for all housemates to compete for the title of the house's first Time God, who would have the power to change decisions from the past, present, and future, as well as control over time in the house. This role was more significant than that of the captain, who merely received immunity and some rights. The task was conducted in two rounds. In the first round, out of 18 housemates, dolls representing nine housemates would be offered to the devil by any housemate. The housemates whose dolls were offered would be eliminated from the race to become the Time God. In the second round, dolls from the remaining nine housemates would be offered, with eight dolls being chosen by any housemate to be offered to the devil. The housemate whose doll was not offered would become the Time God. Arfeen's doll was safe, which allowed him to become the Time God.
	Time God	Arfeen
	Sponsored	On Day 12, Bellavita organized a task involving two teams, with Shilpa and Rajat judging them. Team A's skit depicted Shrutika and Vivian as a couple taking a sweet box as a gift to a Diwali party. Karanveer played the role of a Bellavita salesman, attempting to persuade them to choose a Bellavita perfume box instead of the sweet box. In Team B's performance, Alice and Eisha portrayed best friends who also planned to take a sweet box to the Diwali party, with Shehzada taking on the role of their salesman. Both teams' salesmen incorporated Bellavita's key attributes into their performances, highlighting points such as: "Bellavita perfumes are long-lasting because they contain oils imported from Europe," "Over the past two years, more than 5 crore bottles of Bellavita perfumes have been sold," and "With four distinct fragrances, Bellavita offers a unique alternative to traditional sweet gifts. That's why we say, 'Think Beyond Meetha, Gift Bellavita.'" The judges chose Team A and they received gift hampers filled with Bellavita perfumes. Since the housemates were together during this Diwali celebration, Bellavita also prepared gift hampers for their families outside. Team A was chosen, so hampers were awarded to Shrutika, Vivian and Karanveer.
		On Day 13, Harpic India introduced a task featuring a mood-o-meter currently present in the house, which rates the mood after using the bathroom. Whenever a guest arrives, they will provide their mood rating on the Harpic mood-o-meter. If the bathroom is not clean, they will give a sad rating, while a clean bathroom will receive a happy rating. Red Harpic Bathroom Cleaner specializes in everyday bathroom cleaning. All housemates must clean the bathrooms with Red Harpic Bathroom Cleaner to keep everyone's mood happy, as there will be surprises waiting during the weekend episodes. After this cleaning process, the mood-o-meter can be used, and if the bathrooms remain clean, the effects will be noticed during the weekend. All housemates then cleaned the bathrooms and basins with Red Harpic Bathroom Cleaner, eagerly awaiting the arrival of guests that weekend. During the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes, Krushna Abhishek inspected the bathrooms. He was pleased with the cleaning efforts and gave happy ratings on the Harpic mood-o-meter.
		On Day 14, Macho conducted a poll to choose the Macho Toing Man of the Week among the male housemates. The results were announced, and Vivian was selected as the Toing Man of the Week. He received a gift hamper from Macho as a reward.
		On Day 14, Blue Heaven gifted their range of cosmetic products to the female housemates for always being ready and presentable in the house.
	Exits	On Day 10, Gunratan walked out of the house due to his court case, becoming the first housemate to exit.
		On Day 14, Hema was evicted after facing the public vote, becoming the second housemate to exit.
Week 3	Twists	On Day 18, Bigg Boss called Avinash and presented him with two choices: the first was to be released from jail and live as an ordinary housemate, while the second was to remain in jail but gain additional powers, including control over the household's rations. Avinash opted for the second choice, deciding to stay in jail with enhanced authority. Subsequently, Bigg Boss announced to all the housemates that the jail had now transformed into a powerhouse due to its new privileges. To assist Avinash, another housemate would be chosen by the others and jailed. By majority vote, they chose Arfeen, who was promptly sent to join Avinash in jail. Shortly after this, Bigg Boss played an audio clip for all the housemates, revealing a past conversation in which Arfeen remarked that Sara did not deserve to be in the house. Bigg Boss emphasized that Arfeen, now holding power in jail, had significant influence over the dynamics within the house. As a consequence of his words, Sara was instructed to wear a "Expiring Soon" necklace that symbolized her impending eviction, which could happen within the next 24 hours. Later, Bigg Boss introduced a rankings task for the housemates, excluding those in jail, based on their contributions to the show. All housemates, except for Arfeen and Avinash, were required to rank themselves from 1 to 14, with 1 being the most valuable contributor and 14 the least. As the housemates struggled to reach a consensus on their rankings, Bigg Boss intervened by announcing that Arfeen and Avinash, would take over the responsibility of ranking their housemates. Arfeen and Avinash announced the rankings for all housemates, placing them from 1 to 14. The rankings were determined as follows: Rajat, Vivian, Shilpa, Sara, Eisha, Shrutika, Alice, Karanveer, Chaahat, Shahzada, Chum, Nyrraa, Tajinder, and Muskan. As Tajinder and Muskan were at the bottom of the rankings, Bigg Boss informed them that their contributions to the show had been lacking. With the message that "time doesn’t wait for anyone," Tajinder and Muskan were given the Expiry Soon necklace, which they would wear alongside Sara. Additionally, they were warned that they were on a ticking time bomb; their time in the house was limited, and one of them would soon be evicted. Sara, Tajinder and Muskan were up for eviction as they had been given the Expiry Soon tag.
		On Day 20, housemates had to place a "Get Out" sticker on the face of Muskan, Sara, or Tajinder, all of whom were wearing the "Expiry Soon" tag. The housemates had to vote for whom they believed should leave the house. Muskan received the most votes, 6, and was subsequently evicted. Tajinder received 4 votes, while Sara garnered 3, indicating their unpopularity. Additionally, Bigg Boss announced that Arfeen and Avinash would be released from jail, with Sara and Tajinder taking their places, thus gaining control over the house's ration supplies. Furthermore, Bigg Boss confirmed that the previous nominations for public voting remain valid, meaning either Avinash, Rajat, Nyrraa, or Vivian will be evicted per public vote this weekend.
	Nominations	On Day 17, Bigg Boss asked all housemates to name their favorite member in the house. The majority chose Shrutika as their favorite. Following this, Bigg Boss gathered all housemates in the activity area, where a lamp and a chair were set up for the genie. Since Shrutika was voted as the favorite, she was given the power to control nominations instead of the Time God, who wasn’t elected this week. Shrutika will distribute nomination rights to each housemate as follows: four housemates will receive no nomination rights, another four, 1 nomination right, four, 2 rights, and four, 3 nomination rights. Each housemate will be called individually by Bigg Boss to approach the lamp and rub it. After doing so, the genie, represented by Shrutika, will inform them of the number of nomination rights they have received. Once notified, each housemate will stand under the light corresponding to their nomination rights and proceed to nominate the number of housemates allowed by their rights.
		Avinash, Nyrraa, Rajat, Muskan, Vivian were nominated for the third week’s weekend eviction process.
	Time God Task	Bigg Boss General Elections On Day 16, Bigg Boss summoned Rajat in confession room and presented him with two choices: he could either secure the contendership for the Time God for himself or give it to another housemate. Rajat opted to claim the contendership for himself, becoming the first contender for the Time God title. Later, Bigg Boss announced a formal election between the current Time God, Arfeen and Rajat, who was vying to become the future Time God. The election setup, complete with campaigning, would take place in the garden area. Rajat, as Contestant 1, was assigned the symbol of the sun, while Arfeen, as Contestant 2, would represent the moon. In the first phase, both contestants needed to promote their candidacies to the other housemates, explaining why they should be chosen as the Time God. Afterward, one housemate would endorse their preferred contender and also share their reasons. At the sound of the buzzer, the second phase commenced. Each housemate then entered the confession room individually to cast their vote in a ballot box. Once the election process concluded, Bigg Boss announced that there was no definitive result, as both contenders received an equal number of votes—eight each. Consequently, there would be no Time God for the week.
	Time God	None
	Task	Welcome to Hell On Day 19, Bigg Boss offered all housemates a chance to earn rations for themselves. Hell was created in the garden area, overseen by its keepers, Arfeen and Avinash. Each housemate was required to sacrifice a personal belonging in the fire pit and, in exchange, they could request items from Arfeen and Avinash. The two would decide whether to grant any requests, and if so, to what extent; they also had the option to deny requests altogether. Housemates who chose not to sacrifice anything would not receive any rations. After the distribution, any remaining rations would be returned to the jail, under the control of Arfeen and Avinash. Those who received no items would be lined up against a wall. Once Arfeen or Avinash pressed a buzzer, a blast would ensue, dousing the housemate with black ink.
	Sponsored	On Day 16, Galaxy Jewels presented a key to Avinash, who was in jail and controlling the house's ration supply. This key unlocked a dispenser filled with chocolates from Galaxy Jewels. Avinash had the privilege of sharing these chocolates with up to three housemates whom he considered to have a special bond with. He chose to share the treats with Eisha, Alice, and Muskan.
		On Day 19, My Trident installed a small valve in the bedroom, showcasing their folklore bedsheets made from 100% cotton. One of the bedsheets, which featured the design of Kalpavriksha (the wishing tree), was elegantly laid on the My Trident bed.
		On Day 20, Macho announced the results of the "Toing Man of the Week" poll, which allowed viewers to vote for their favorite male housemate. Rajat was chosen as the winner and received a Macho Sporto gift hamper as a prize.
		On Day 21, host Salman Khan unveiled the Go Cheese Greet Corner, situated near the jail, where Go Cheese will deliver cheesy surprises throughout the season. This time, Go Cheese treated all the housemates to pizza.
	Exits	On Day 20, Muskan was evicted after the majority of housemates voted her out, becoming the third housemate to exit.
		On Day 21, Nyrraa was evicted after facing the public vote, becoming the fourth housemate to exit.
Week 4	Twists	On Day 26, Bigg Boss granted a special power to the Time God, Vivian. With Sara and Tajinder’s term in jail coming to an end, it was Vivian's responsibility to send two new housemates in their place. He could take suggestions from the other housemates about whom to choose. Ultimately, Vivian decided to send Rajat and Shrutika to jail. Later, Bigg Boss announced that all the house rations would be stored in the kitchen instead of the jail, but this time, the ration would not be controlled by jailmates. Instead, the power to decide the menu for the kitchen would belong to the jailmates, as Bigg Boss provided them with a whiteboard and marker to vote on what dishes should be prepared.
	Nominations	On Day 24, housemates were required to nominate two fellow contestants in the confession room. However, those nominated would face a shock outside as a consequence. During the nomination process, Chum apologised to her housemates prior to entering the confession room to cast her votes. This resulted in Bigg Boss canceling her right to participate in the nominations.
		Shehzada, Shrutika, Eisha, Avinash, Alice, Arfeen, Shilpa were nominated for the fourth week’s weekend eviction process.
	Time God Task	Tandav Garh On Day 25, Bigg Boss presented a task to become Time God of the House. In this task, the house is transformed into Tandav Garh, ruled by Rajmata Shilpa. She has two princes, Vivian and Karanveer, who are rival brothers competing for her throne. The prince who becomes the successor gains the power to be the Time God. The task consists of two rounds. In the first round, both princes must present their case to Rajmata Shilpa, explaining why they deserve to succeed her and become the Time God. They will highlight their strengths while pointing out the weaknesses of their opponent. After their presentations, the people of Tandav Garh will have the opportunity to question both princes. In the second round, the princes must win the heart of Princess Chum. Upon completing this round, Princess Chum will recommend the prince who won her admiration to Rajmata Shilpa. Rajmata, considering the performances from both rounds, will decide which prince will be her successor and thus become the Time God of the house. Rajat will serve as the commander to Rajmata Shilpa during this task. After the conclusion of both rounds, Rajmata Shilpa chose Prince Vivian as the successor to her throne and announced him as the Time God of the house.
	Time God	Vivian
	Punishments	On Day 23, Bigg Boss reprimanded all housemates for their lack of organization and cleanliness in the house. He then turned to Vivian, who the housemates consider a favorite of Bigg Boss, and asked him who he thought was the most unorganized person in the house. Vivian named Chaahat, after which Bigg Boss asked the other housemates for their opinions; three of them agreed. In response, Bigg Boss announced that Chaahat would allocate duties for all housemates. She would oversee the distribution of duties, ensuring that everyone completed their assigned duties. Chaahat was provided with a duty board where she would write the names of housemates next to their respective duties. Until then, Rajat, who had previously served as the supervisor during the Time God's tenure, would train the housemates on how to properly execute their duties. Chaahat then allocated the following duties on the duty board: Duty Board Breakfast Cleaning Eisha Alice Lunch Cooking Shilpa Chum Dining Area Cleaning Avinash Toilet Cleaning Karanveer Shrutika Breakfast Chopping Chaahat Lunch Utensils Cleaning Vivian Arfeen Living Area Cleaning Shilpa Wash-Basin Cleaning Karanveer Avinash Breakfast Cooking Chaahat Alice Dinner Cleaning Alice Garden Area Cleaning Rajat Bedroom Cleaning Chaahat Breakfast Utensils Cleaning Shilpa Dinner Chopping Shehzada Shrutika Garden Pool Cleaning Rajat Balcony Area Cleaning Chaahat Lunch Cleaning Eisha Dinner Cooking Shehzada Shrutika Bathroom Cleaning Avinash Eisha The Office Cleaning Shilpa Lunch Chopping Shilpa Chum Dinner Utensils Cleaning Vivian Arfeen Luggage Area Organising & Cleaning Shehzada Rajat Bedroom Bedsheet Making Chaahat

		On Day 26, Harpic India organized a special activity in the house to celebrate Diwali.

Unexpectedly, Bigg Boss revealed that not all eight nominees were truly out of the running; four of them could still achieve safety. After announcing the nominated housemates by Bigg Boss, if at least four raise their hands to vote for a housemate's safety, then that nominated housemate would be safe. As he called out the names—Rajat, Chaahat, Karanveer, Shrutika, and Chum—Ultimately, Rajat, Karanveer, Shrutika, and Chum received enough votes to secure their safety. Consequently, Chaahat, Sara, Arfeen, and Tajinder remained nominated for elimination.
		Chaahat, Sara, Arfeen, Tajinder were nominated for the fifth week's weekend eviction process.
	Time God Task	On Day 32, Bigg Boss assigned Team B a task to compete for the title of Time God, following their previous victory. In this challenge, Rajat, Chaahat, Shrutika, Digvijay, Karanveer, and Sara were required to hold the Time God’s staff (scepter) using only one hand. Any contestant who lost their grip, changed hands, or relied on both hands would be eliminated. The last contestant remaining would be declared the new Time God, with Vivian moderating the task. As the task progressed, Shrutika, Chaahat, Rajat, and Sara were eliminated, leaving Digvijay and Karanveer as the final two contenders. During the intense challenge, the staff broke, with Digvijay holding one half and Karanveer holding the other. Given the task rules, Bigg Boss announced that since the staff was broken and neither contestant held it until the end, no one could be awarded the title of Time God. As a result, Vivian was reinstated as Time God and would continue his tenure.
	Time God	Vivian
	Tasks	Hammer Making Factory On Day 31, Bigg Boss announced the end of Vivian's tenure as Time God and introduced the selection process for the next Time God. This would involve a task between two teams, competing to create a soil hammer in the Hammer Making Factory, conducted in rounds. Each round would start with the factory siren. From each team, two members would try to make the hammer while the other two would protect it. At the end of each round, a moderator would declare the results, awarding the winning team a real hammer. This hammer would allow them to eliminate one member of the opposing team by breaking their pot. The team with the most members remaining at the end of the task would win, and all its members would then be eligible to become the next Time God. The teams were as follows: Team A: Vivian, Avinash, Eisha, Alice, Shilpa, and Chum. Team B: Rajat, Chaahat, Shrutika, Digvijay, Karanveer, and Sara Arfeen and Tajinder were excluded from the task due to violating house rules by sleeping, and Kashish would serve as the task moderator. Round Won Eliminated 1 Team B Avinash 2 Team B Chum 3 Team B Vivian As Team B was leading the task with a score of 3-0, it became clear that Team A could no longer secure a win. Consequently, Bigg Boss announced the conclusion of the task, declaring Team B as the winner.
		Winner – Team B: Rajat, Chaahat, Shrutika, Digvijay, Karanveer and Sara
		Failed – Team A: Vivian, Avinash, Eisha, Alice, Shilpa and Chum
	Punishments	On Day 29, Bigg Boss reprimanded Sara for speaking English in the house and asked her what she would prefer as a consequence for not speaking Hindi. She humorously replied, "Tea". Bigg Boss responded by excluding tea powder from their next ration. On Day 30, Bigg Boss reprimanded Kashish for speaking English in the house. He then asked her what she would prefer as a consequence for not using Hindi, to which she humorously replied, "Coffee". So Bigg Boss responded by excluding coffee powder from their next ration.
	Sponsored	On Day 29, Macho conducted a poll to choose the Macho Toing Man of the Week among the male housemates. The results were announced, and Vivian was selected as the Toing Man of the Week. He received a gift hamper from Macho as a reward.
		On Day 32, Go Cheese celebrated Team B's victory by sending a generous supply of cheese for the winning team members.
		On Day 34, Blue Heaven surprised the female housemates by gifting them a selection of their serum products.
		On Day 34, host Rohit Shetty introduced Ching's Chinese Sriracha Sauces to the housemates, highlighting them as some of the spiciest sauces in the world.
	Exits	On Day 34, Arfeen was evicted after facing the public vote, becoming the sixth housemate to exit.
Week 6	Twists	On Day 36, Bigg Boss introduced the option for the housemates to select their weekly ration. He noted that while he was willing to provide all the necessary items, previous violations of rules meant they could only choose 50 from the list. The housemates requested an increase in the number of items, and Bigg Boss agreed, stating he would provide more than 50 if they followed all rules. However, if they violated any rule, he would seize all rations. The housemates initially demanded 150 items, but when Bigg Boss agreed to their request, they declined and settled for just 50 items. Later, Bigg Boss presented three additional options that were missing from the original list: 1) coffee and Vivian's coffee, 2) tea, and 3) green tea. To select any of these options, the housemates would have to sacrifice five of the items they had initially chosen. Ultimately, they decided against any of the additional options and stuck with the 50 items. Bigg Boss reprimanded them for choosing just 50 instead of taking the opportunity to request more, particularly since they had consistently failed to follow the rules. He emphasized that they should not voice concerns only regarding ration while ignoring their responsibility to adhere to the rules. In the end, Bigg Boss provided the housemates with their chosen 50 items as part of their weekly ration.
		On Day 41, Bigg Boss presented Time God Rajat with a unique opportunity to alter the timeline, allowing him to change nominations from the past. As the Time God, Rajat could save one housemate from nominations, excluding himself. In this process, he had to stick the photos of the housemates on a punching bag and punch the photos of those he wished to keep nominated. Ultimately, the last housemate remaining on the board would be saved from nomination. Rajat chose to save Digvijay from nominations, while all others remained on the list. Later, Bigg Boss disclosed that, based on the voting results up to that point, Digvijay was actually in the Top 2 and already in a safe zone.
	Nominations	BB Post Office On Day 37, the Bigg Boss house transformed into a village setup for the nomination process. The garden area featured two telephones—one for all the housemates, referred to as "villagers," and another at the BB Post Office, which was managed by Vivian, who served as the postman. When Bigg Boss called for nominations, each housemate approached the communal telephone to contact the post office. They informed Vivian of their two nomination choices. As a postman, Vivian meticulously recorded their nominations in letters. Once all the letters were written, Vivian had the power to cancel the nomination letters from any three housemates of his choice. After making his selections, he would then deliver the letters to the nominated housemates, who had been put forward for eviction this week. Vivian cancelled Karanveer, Rajat and Digvijay's nomination letters.
		Tajinder, Shrutika, Rajat, Digvijay, Karanveer, Kashish, and Chum were nominated for the sixth week's weekend eviction process.
	Time God Task	Bagga Tea Corner On Day 39, Bigg Boss played a freeze-and-release game with the housemates. Afterward, the crew spread tea and coffee packets throughout the house. Bigg Boss then announced a special task to determine the 'Time God' among Shilpa, Rajat, and Chaahat. For this task, a shop named Bagga Tea Corner, owned by Tajinder, was set up in the house. However, thieves had turned over a truck carrying tea and coffee packets intended for Bagga Tea Corner. The contenders—Shilpa, Rajat, and Chaahat—would play the roles of these "thieves." With packets scattered across the floor, each contender had to collect the items and place them in their carts. Other housemates could support their favorites by transferring packets; however, only the contenders were allowed to pick them up from the floor. As a twist, since the tea and coffee were not provided by Bigg Boss due to rule violations, housemates had the chance to collect these packets for their rations. They could transfer packets from the contenders’ carts to Bagga Tea Corner, ensuring that only the packets in the shop remained in the house. Any packets collected in the contenders' carts would be returned to Bigg Boss. The contender with the highest number of collected packets would become 'Time God.' Eisha was the moderator for this task. After the completion of the task, Bigg Boss asked all the housemates whom they wanted to appoint as the new 'Time God.' He then asked Eisha to identify which of the three contestants had gathered the most packets. Eisha revealed that Rajat was carrying the most. So, Rajat was declared the new 'Time God.'
	Time God	Rajat
	Task	On Day 38, Bigg Boss instructed all housemates to form pairs, consisting of one boy and one girl, as only couples were allowed to attend the pajama party in the bedroom. Chaahat and Kashish were the only two girls left without partners. In response, Bigg Boss announced the establishment of two hostels in the garden—one for boys and one for girls—since the boys and girls were in love with one another. Chaahat and Kashish would serve as the wardens of these hostels. During the task, both wardens would eliminate one pair from entering the pajama party in each round. There would be five rounds, and the last remaining pair would become contenders for the title of Time God. The pairs participating were as follows: Avinash and Alice, Vivian and Eisha, Karanveer and Chum, Digvijay and Shrutika, Rajat and Shilpa, and Tajinder and Sara. Round Eliminated 1 Vivian and Eisha 2 Tajinder and Sara 3 Avinash and Alice 4 Digvijay and Shrutika 5 Karanveer and Chum Ultimately, Rajat and Shilpa were the last pair standing, avoiding elimination. They became contenders for the title of Time God. Bigg Boss announced that since Chaahat and Kashish were not chosen by anyone as partners, they were appointed as wardens and thus missed the opportunity to claim contendership for the title of Time God. However, one of them could still compete for the title. The housemates who were not invited to the pajama party decided, through a mutual discussion, who among Chaahat and Kashish would become the third contender for Time God. After deliberation, the non-contender housemates chose Chaahat. Bigg Boss then revealed that Chaahat would join Shilpa and Rajat in a task to compete for the Time God.
		Winner – Rajat and Shilpa
		Failed – Avinash, Alice, Vivian, Eisha, Karanveer, Chum, Digvijay, Shrutika, Tajinder and Sara
	Sponsored	On Day 35, Macho gifted their Macho Sporto Range to Toing Man of the Week Karanveer, who was selected by audience poll for male housemates.
		On Day 40, Ching's Chinese introduced a cook-off challenge. In this competition, two teams were tasked with preparing dishes using Ching's Chinese Schezwan Chutney. Rajat, serving as the Time God, took on the role of judge and was responsible for allocating cuisines to both teams from the following options: East - Momos, West - Vada Pav, North - Paratha, and South - Uthapam. Rajat assigned the North cuisine, Paratha, to the team of Alice and Chaahat, while the East cuisine, Momos, was given to the team of Chum and Shilpa. After the cooking was completed, Rajat tasted each dish and made his decision regarding the winner. Ultimately, he declared the North team, consisting of Alice and Chaahat, as the winners. They received gift hampers from Ching's Chinese as a reward.
		On Day 41, Macho gifted their Macho Sporto Range to Toing Man of the Week Digvijay, who was selected by audience poll for male housemates.
		On Day 41, Blue Heaven introduced a task where two teams competed: one team consisting of Karanveer and Chum, and the other composed of Avinash and Eisha. In this challenge, the male member of each team was responsible for preparing the female member by applying a love duo lipstick and touching up her face. Once both female contestants were ready, the other female housemates voted to determine who looked better. The scores ended up tied, leading to both teams sharing the hamper provided by Blue Heaven.
	Exits	On Day 42, there was no eviction.
Week 7	Entrances	During Weekend Ka Vaar, host Salman Khan announced to the audience that three new wildcard contestants would enter the house this week. On Day 44, Aditi, Edin, and Yamini entered the house.
	Twists	On Day 45, Bigg Boss tasked the male housemates with selecting one of three new wildcard entrants to receive a special power. The boys chose Edin for this honor. Bigg Boss then revealed that Edin was granted the exclusive power to shop for the weekly rations for the house, where only she could see what items were available. Following this, Edin could choose items from the storeroom and pass them to other housemates in a unique manner. The passing procedure would occur mouth-to-mouth, with no one allowed to touch the items. After Edin selected an item, each housemate would pass it along until the last person in line dropped it into a designated box. If any item was accidentally dropped during the process, passing would restart from the beginning. The housemates were arranged in the following order: Edin, Karanveer, Shilpa, Chum, Shrutika, Kashish, Chaahat, Rajat, Digvijay, Avinash, Eisha, Vivian, Tajinder, Sara, Aditi, and Yamini. Alice served as the moderator and did not participate in the item passing. Ultimately, the housemates successfully collected milk, chicken, ghee, curd, urad dal, moong dal, rice, chhole, tur dal, rawa, aata, paneer, apples, poha, ginger, and potatoes.
	Nominations	On Day 44, Bigg Boss set up a lavish display of luxury food items on the dining table, featuring a throne at its center. Later, Bigg Boss announced that all the food items were exclusively for Time God Rajat. Each housemate, when called by Bigg Boss, would approach Rajat, who was seated on the throne. Based on their interaction, Rajat would choose how many food items to enjoy from each housemate, correlating that number to the nomination rights he wished to grant them. Rajat had the option to give a maximum of five nomination rights and a minimum of zero.
		Karanveer, Avinash, Chaahat, Vivian, Digvijay, Kashish, and Alice were nominated for the seventh week's weekend eviction process.
