The tensions between Karan Veer Mehra and Avinash Mishra continue to grow in the Bigg Boss 18 house. After being engrossed in a war of words for a while now, the duo continues to hog the limelight. In the latest promo of the show, we saw the two contestants locking horns once again. It all started during a task when the housemates were asked to sacrifice their belongings in exchange for a ration.
The promo video shows Eisha Singh having an emotional breakdown as she sacrifices her mother’s shawl. While making the sacrifices, she remarks, “There’s is my mother’s shawl; it is very close to me. I just don’t want to get rid of this.” Avinash tells her not to do the same, saying, “It’s not required.”
Next, Karan Veer Mehra was required to make the sacrifice. However, taking a bold route, he refused to participate in the task, declaring he would not make any sacrifice. Reflecting on the reason behind his reluctance to sacrifice any of his belongings, the former Khatron Ke Khiladi winner announces, “Personal item toh bahut dur ki baat hai, main toh apne paer ke nakhun tak nahi chadhaunga to satisfy this (Avinash) man’s ego. Bhookha reh lunga, ration nahi maangunga (Leave personal items, I will not even offer my toenails. I will stay hungry; I will not ask for ration).”
Later in the promo video, we can also see an AI version of young Shilpa Shirodkar sending a powerful message to the actress, making her emotional. In an attempt to make her realise her inner strength, the AI version of Shilpa says, “Dusron ko rulane waali, khud kaise rone lag gayi. Shilpa ki khud ki ek awaaz hai, soch hai, opinion hai aur agar yeh sab nahi hai tumhare paas toh kya tum Shilpa Shirodkar nahi ho (The one who made others cry, how did she start crying herself? Shilpa has her voice, thoughts, and opinions, and if you don’t have all this, then aren’t you Shilpa Shirodkar?).”
Escalating the drama inside the house, Avinash Mishra and Arfeen Khan will also be ranking contestants based on their contribution to the show. Their decision is expected to change the house dynamics, breaking old alliances and marking the onset of new conflicts.
