Bigg Boss 17 Day 72 Highlights: Abhishek, Ankita call Isha unfair; Anurag asks Mannara ‘Naya ladka chahiye?’

The day started with Munawar asking Vicky if he tried to instigate Abhishek against him. Vicky asked if that's what happened and Abhishek agreed. While Vicky and Munawar argued, Neil tried to jump into the conversation. This soon turned into a verbal spat between Abhishek and Vicky. Vicky called Abhishek a waste product whereas the latter made nasty comments about Vicky's face. Later Samarth and Mannara chimed in and began taunting Ayesha indirectly.

At one corner Munawar sat and explained to Aoora that Ayesha is friendly and her intention was not to make her uncomfortable. Mannara, on the other hand, announced that Aoora does not like getting kisses from Ayesha and feels she is using him. She then began making fun of Munawar for defending Ayesha. She even called Ayesha a 'tragedy wildcard'. Mannara continued to mock Ayesha. Later Munawar went and told Ayesha that this house has become a gutter. He even stated that Aoora will nominate Ayesha not Mannara and called the latter jealous. Meanwhile on the other side of the garden area, Anurag Dobhal began fighting with Mannara and asked why she has a problem with Ayesha. He further and what Mannara will do now that Munawar and Anurag both have left her. Anurag accused her of using boys and even asked her, "Naya Ladka chahiye?" As things got out of hand, Samarth jumped in and told Anurag that he is alone, not Mannara.

Babu bhaiya has fallen down to the limits to slǔt shame a woman! #MannaraChopra was friends with 2 grown men, who said they were committed. Friendships can exist between men and women and 2 grown men couldn’t say they had a problem ? #BiggBoss17• #BB17

Later Samarth and Isha slammed Anurag for going on Mannara's character. They made Anurag apologize in the end but later he told Mannara that her family members will refuse to recognize her post the show. In the afternoon while talking to Ankita, Ayesha once again blacked out and fell to the ground unconscious. She was rushed to the medical room. In the Dil Ka Ghar, Mannara asked Isha if she will be blamed for Ayesha's condition. Isha stopped her and told her not to set new narratives. Mannara then claimed that Ayesha was unconscious but as soon as the boys started talking about carrying her to the medical room she woke up.

Later in the day, as part of nominations, Isha was given the task to rank contestants according to their worth on the show. She put Samarth on number 1 as the most worthy while Mannara was on number 2. Ayesha, on the other hand, was on number 11. Bigg Boss then announced a new task where any contestant who picked up the phone would get the chance to directly nominate another housemate. The nominated contestant's rank would turn into the number of hours that the kitchen will be operative. Abhishek ran and picked up the phone in the first round but Isha declared Samarth as the winner. While Abhishek slammed Isha, Samarth nominated Rinku and got 8 hours of kitchen time. After this round the task was canceled, because Abhishek didn't budge and kept standing inside the room. Bigg Boss then gave Isha the power to nominate two contestants. She chose Abhishek and Ayesha.

At the end of the episode, Abhishek told the camera that Isha is a bad girl who moved on from him in just 2 months while he was bedridden for 6 months. Meanwhile Ankita questioned Isha's ranking and asked why Mannara was on number 2 while Ankita was 4. Later Abhishek lost his cool and began yelling how unfair Isha is.
