It's festive mood everywhere and the housemates are craving for the company of their loved ones. It is rightly said that the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach. Bigg Boss uses it as a way to make the housemates feel close to their family. ‘Ghar Ka Khana’ is something that the housemates have been longing for and it was finally the time for Bigg Boss to surprise them with home-cooked food. Mumbai's world famous ‘Dabbawalas’ enter the house bearing some lip smacking delicacies prepared by the family members of the winning team of the Chinese stall task.
Welcoming them with big smiles and teary eyes, Paras calls the dabbawalas their Santa Claus. Excited, the contestants open the boxes and leave aside their fights and differences. The contestants pamper their taste buds with a variety of food ranging from Punjab’s famous makki ki roti from Shehnaz’s tiffin to besan ke laddoo and dhokla from Paras's dabba. Shefali Jariwala serves some yummy rasmalai and dahi wada from her tiffin for the housemates to savour.
Then Bigg Boss announces the captaincy task for the contenders Shehnaz and Vishal. They have to enter a ‘Brain’ setup placed in the garden area wherein they will get ‘thoughts’ on an indicator and have to convert them into reality. The thoughts will be such that the housemates will have to destroy their personal belongings mentioned in the 'thought’. Both Shehnaz and Vishal will get the same ‘thought’ and the housemates have to choose for whom they wish to sacrifice their belongings. Shehnaz and Vishal will get only a certain amount of time to convince the housemates. Rashami is asked to destroy her family photo and with a heavy heart she keeps her friendship first and destroys it for Vishal. Asim too, without giving a second thought, gives up his favourite gym belt for Shehnaz as a payback for making him the captain previous week.
