Bigg Boss 20 Episode 48 had a little bit of a lot of things. Mahhi Vij takes over the charge of the house as the new captain; Aamrapali Dubey and Love Gill find themselves on opposite sides as kitchen arguments come into play, and Yung DSA gets emotional as Qazi Touqeer sings a song dedicated to his father. Somewhere between all of this, Qazi reminded everyone that his Hrithik Roshan fanboy era is still alive.
Bigg Boss 20 Episode 48: Mahhi Vij Wins Captaincy For the Week
The captaincy race took an interesting turn as Bigg Boss announced that the non-contenders for captaincy would get the power to decide who would eventually become the captain of the Bigg Boss 20 house this week.
The task involved cards with the names of the contenders on them, lying on the table face down. Whoever’s name was picked would get to sit on the throne for that round and eliminate one non-contender from the race to “choose the next captain”. ScoutOP started the task by picking up a card which had Mary Kom’s name.
Mary Kom chose Uditi Singh to be out of the race, followed by Love Gill, who removed Arishfa Khan from the game. Manish Goel then sat on the throne, removing Yung DSA from the task, while Aasif Khan came next and went on to remove Gullu. Finally, Mahhi Vij sat on the throne, removing Scout OP.
With all the choices made, Qazi was left with the final decision and chose Mahhi Vij to be the new captain of the house. The task, however, had another highlighting moment. Qazi Touqeer gave a performance which made Aasif Khan let him stay in the game while removing Gullu. He gave the house a little entertainment dosage as he performed to Hrithik Roshan’s Ek Pal Ka Jeena with all his heart. The man was committed and expressed his love for his hero as the Bollywood song finished playing.
Aamrapali-Love Kitchen Clash
Mahhi Vij’s captaincy victory was followed by a rather familiar household problem, which was the issue of “suties”. Aamrapali, who is generally seen sharing the kitchen responsibilities with Love, told Mahhi that she would prepare “aaloo methi” but could not make the “kadhi pakoras” as she did not know how to prepare them. Mahhi approached Love, who had seemingly initiated it. The latter was in the bedroom doing her makeup and suggested that she ask someone to do the chopping. Mahhi conveyed the same to Amrapali, but the latter was not interested in taking it up and maintained that she had her own work to do and eventually confronted Love directly.
Love explained that her shoulder was not fully fine, hearing which Uditi Singh stepped in, offering to help prepare the dish. A practical solution was right there, but the disagreement did not end. ScoutOP entered the conversation in Love’s defence, prompting Aamrapali to question the reasoning behind the complaint, pointing out that Love had also been going to the gym and arguing that if her shoulder was troubling her, she should have also refrained from those activities.
Scout countered that Love’s gym routine did not involve putting pressure on the shoulder. Aamrapali argued back that cutting and chopping vegetables would not strain the shoulder either and asked him to try it himself.
The conversation is rather interesting when seen in the earlier context of the episode. Yung was seen complaining to Aamrapali about being left out in the episode itself. Yung opened up to Aamrapali Dubey about feeling uninvited around Love Gill and ScoutOP and seemed to be struggling with the dynamic between the two and where he fit into it. What made the conversation interesting was Aamrapali’s response. This time, she appeared to agree with Yung, acknowledging it, and in fact, the two discussed the changing dynamics. Later, this incident was also discussed by the two.
Qazi’s Winning Anniversary Takes an Emotional Turn
Away from the captaincy and kitchen drama, the house witnessed a softer moment as the housemates celebrated the 21st anniversary of Qazi Touqeer winning a reality show. Qazi Touqeer won Fame Gurukul, a reality singing show in 2005.
There was more than one reason to celebrate as Qazi pointed out that Manish Goel’s wedding anniversary was on the 24th, while Mahhi had just become the captain. The housemates decided to celebrate the win together, giving the house a rare moment of collective celebration. Yung requested Qazi to sing a song, and Qazi agreed with Aane Waala Pal. The latter dedicated the song to Yung’s father, turning the request rather personal.
By the end of the performance, Yung was visibly emotional as he remembered his mother’s struggles during the earlier days of his life. It came as a reminder that behind all the arguments, tasks and alliances, the contestants carry memories and experiences that have little to do with the game. Arishfa Khan and other housemates tried to comfort him as he struggled with his emotions.
Mahhi Vij Tries to Guess Uditi Singh’s Boyfriend
The episode also had another lighter moment when Mahhi tried to figure out who Uditi Singh was currently dating. Mahhi asked Uditi whether her boyfriend was a sportsperson, and Uditi confirmed it. On further asking whether he was a cricketer, Uditi remained tight-lipped about his identity, telling Mahhi that they would never figure it out.
Mahhi was not done thinking about it and later told Qazi that her suspicion about Uditi dating a cricketer came from “Wahi” (Karan Wahi) being friends with several cricketers. Now, if Mahhi’s guess is close to the truth or far away remains untold, but Uditi certainly was not about to reveal any other clue as of now.
Bigg Boss Season 20 Episode 48: Friends, Fights And a New Captain
Episode 48 had a balance between the usual house politics and some emotional moments. Mahhi’s captaincy win set up new possibilities, Aamrapali and Love’s disagreement brought a round of clashes in the otherwise friendly dynamics, and Yung’s emotional moment with Qazi offered a much-needed pause from the drama.
Qazi Touqeer’s Ek Pal Ka Jeena performance and Aane Waala Pal dedication made sure that he had both fun and the emotional aspects covered. Mahhi Vij is now the new house captain and has the responsibility of keeping the entire house in order.
