Bigg Boss OTT 2 Day 5 highlights: Palak Purswani and Jiya Shankar call 'captain' Falaq Naaz the 'Thakur' of the house

The competitors on Bigg Boss OTT have been making headlines for all the right reasons ever since the show premiered with a bang. Audiences have been kept glued to their seats as the most prized house has experienced an emotional roller coaster full of challenges and doubts.

As the day began, Cyrus requested that his cheery personality be reflected in his preferred address of Bubbly rather than Sir. Manisha has self-dubbed herself "Lovely," whereas Jia prefers the term "Sonu."

Although not all of the housemates have been pleased with Falaq's decision to take the lead, she is the season's first captain. Palak and Jiya were lamenting Falaq's rise to power and referring to her as the 'Thakur' of the household. In a confident tone, Palak predicted that Falaq's rule would be brief.

Because Aaliya and Bebika were locked up in the cellblock, Falaq, as captain, had no one to prepare meals for the crew. Cyrus took care of the meal preparations, and Falaq instructed him on how to best cook the lamb. Cyrus's ability to feed his family remained an open question.

Jad, the household's swoon-worthy hottie, professed his love for Manisha. He helped her get ready by tying the knot in her traditional attire and selecting the appropriate jewellery.

Jad and Akansha were having a sexy talk close to the prison. He voiced his disapproval of her being incarcerated while she was innocent. He joked that they should go take a shower together. There was no reply to Akansha's reply.

In this challenge, Bebika had to identify four notable participants just by looking at their faces: Abhishek, Jia Shankar, Manisha Rani, and Pooja Bhatt. Abhishek and Bebika got into a heated dispute when he got offended by her labelling him two-faced throughout the task. After Abhishek's answer, "Kuttey ke bhaukne par pathar nahi maarte," Bebika yelled at him in return, raising the tension even more.

Bigg Boss put Palak in the difficult position of deciding whether to use 30,000 BB cash coins to free Akanksha from jail or to buy food for the house. Palak was at a crossroads of loyalty, split between her personal relationships and the well-being of her family as a whole.

Things happened quickly in the Bigg Boss OTT house, and now everyone can't wait to see what happens next.
