Bigg Boss 16 November 12 Written Update: Salman Khan brings back Archana Gautam to the house

Salman Khan has returned to Shanivaar Ka Vaar and has promised to talk about Shiv Thakare and Archana Gautam. He also talks about why Gori Nagori, Priyanka Chahar Chaudhry, and Sumbul Touqeer Khan were kicked off the show. The host then discusses his interaction with Priyanka and Ankit. He speaks specifically about evictions. The host introduces Priyanka, startling the other residents. As Salman announces his departure, Priyanka and Soundarya Sharma start to cry. Gori cries as well. Abdu Rozik offers her a hug and tells her he will miss her as Sajid Khan arrives to talk to her.

Ankit and Soundarya both think it's a joke. Ankit apologizes to Priyanka. With a poker face, Salman asks Ankit if he feels the loss. Then "Haryana ki Shakira," Gori, is released, and Priyanka is deemed safe. Ankit apologises to Priyanka once more and tells her not to worry about him as they hug.

She warns Ankit that she will be scrutinized for the birthday incident by everyone. Ankit is urged by Sajid to trust his instincts and be certain about Priyanka. Ankit then claims responsibility for placing Priyanka in this predicament.

The Bhediya duo Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon are welcomed on stage by Salman. Upon entering, the two begin to dance on Thumkeshwari. Varun passes the torch to Salman, who pursues Kriti. With Salman, they play. Kriti quips that Varun wants to bite Salman. The superstar offers his bum for a bite as a result of the plot of Bhediya.

Kriti and Varun enter the home. Salman swears that the drama in the house will continue as he goes to fetch some chicken. Hasabullah is invited by Abdu to enter the Bigg Boss 16 house.

This is the task. Priyanka stabs Stan in the back. Shalin is a people-pleaser. Ankit desires to give it back to Shalin. Shiv is then referred to as "sharp" by Ankit. Ankit returns it on Priyanka's behalf when Shiv claims to have learned it from her.

Who said it was the next game? Soundarya correctly guesses Tina. Shalin realizes the obvious, and Tina is back. Tina correctly predicts Soundarya, but Sumbul and Gautam both get it wrong. It was said by Abdu. Sumbul discovers information about Tina.

Following Varun and Kriti's departure, the housemates start fighting. Shiv and Priyanka are at odds, as are Shalin and Tina. Abdu is suspected by Team Priyanka-Gautam of having disparaged Tina.

Salman raises awareness of the Archana-Shiv event. From the activity area, he speaks with Archana. The host chastises her for her actions. In addition, he charges Archana with repeatedly criticising Bigg Boss. She is also referred to as "faaltu" by the host. Additionally, he corrects Archana and inquires as to how she made her family proud. Salman reminds Archana of the way she disregarded her friendships. Additionally, he criticises her cocky demeanour and claims that Bigg Boss is powerless to remove her from the house. She is reminded by the host that she is not at home.

Salman puts her on hold while engaging in conversation with others. He discusses "bhaunkna" and an "open-and-shut case" with Nimrit. Salman then chastises the competitors for smoking in plain view. He finally brings up the subject of Archana-Shiv. Tina describes the incident from her point of view. And Priyanka concurs. Salman even reprimanded Sumbul for attacking Archana. He later declines to speak with her.

Salman wonders what Archana wants. According to Nimrit, Archana meant to hurt. Priyanka asserts the exact opposite. Salman plays the scene in which Shiv planned to startle Archana. Salman disputes Shiv's claim that Archana misheard Gori and used a different term. The host asks Shiv about the Bigg Boss regulations and how eviction follows three warnings. Salman then plays the scene in which Archana asked Shiv to refrain from mentioning her party or didi.

Salman clarifies the entire scenario. He also discusses Archana's proposition. Salman then queries Stan and Shiv about inciting Ankit. Shiv receives a warning for inciting people by utilising political figures. Salman commends Archana for treating other people as contestants and rivals. Salman Khan issues a warning to Shalin.

Salman queries the competitors about Shiv's choice. Priyanka stands up for Archana, and Tina concurs. Priyanka and Soundarya want Archana to return. Shiv is informed by Salman that his actions were improper. After hearing what the hosts said, Shiv agrees with Priyanka, Ankit, Gautam, Soundarya, and Sumbul that Archana should go back. Salman responds that when Abdu claims he doesn't want her back, Archana brings out the best in him. Abdu then agrees to bring Archana back with him.

Archana enters the house once more. Soundarya and Priyanka call out for her. Stan and Priyanka disagree on whether to call Ankit "chamcha." Sajid claims that Archana doesn't deserve the chance and that her organisation supports violence. Shiv is told by Priyanka to leave the house. Shiv is backed by Sajid and Shalin.
