Bigg Boss 17
12:00 am-- Sadasya No. 16 and 17: Abhishek Kumar and Isha Malviya
While Abhishek feels they were in a relationship and the actress’ mother created problems, Isha believes it was just ‘gender attraction’. It was on the set of their show Udaariyaan that they came close. Well, Isha is now single whereas Abhishek is still moving on. He still has feelings for Isha, but the latter has completely friendzoned him. Isha also called it all Abhishek’s misunderstanding. After a long debate about who got physically violent first, Isha and Abhishek finally stopped screaming and fighting out of respect for Salman before entering the BB house.
11:45 pm-- Sadasya No. 14 and 15: Rinku Dhawan and Arun Srikanth Mashettey
Actress Rinku is a boss lady, who is also a rebel and has been working on television since the last 30 years. Meanwhile Arun Srikanth Mashettey is a gamer and a YouTuber who is spontaneous. Well, the two got into a fun argument right on stage regarding what they think of Ankita and Vicky's jodi. How fun!
11:25 pm-- Sadasya No. 13: Sunny Arya
The next contestant is YouTuber Sunny Arya. When asked to choose one contestant he wants to handcuff himself to, Sunny chose Khanzaadi over Soniya. As soon as he walked towards her, Sunny was hilariously ‘attacked’ by his wife Deepika Arya. Well, Deepika became a hit and even impressed Salman. We are already hoping to see her in the next season
