Day 24 of Bigg Boss OTT began by the contestants grooving to Jaldi Aao, created for Money Heist. Soon, we see Muskaan Jattana singing 'lonely vibes' while her connection Nishant Bhat lays down and hears her. He walks away when she says Nishant won't talk to her.
Pratik Sehajpal talks to Nishant on the topic. The choreographer was sitting with Pratik's connection Neha Bhasin. Raqesh joins them. Defending his statement, Nishant says what he and Moose have is a connection and not an affair.
Meanwhile, we see Moose getting emotional while lying on the bed and talking to her mother's photo. Pratik asks her to make Nishant miss her.
We see Akshara and Nishant talk. The choreographer says he's becoming emotionless. The Bhojpuri actress calls him the most emotional in the house. Nishant says he has no regrets for tearing the letter. The choreographer says he is pissed off because he can't understand why he didn't feel anything. Akshara sits next to him when Nishant breaks down. He calls himself 'very cold'.
Shamita Shetty asks Neha and Pratik where her partner Raqesh is. When they tell her that he is with Divya, Shamita makes a face. Neha asks the actress why she keeps scolding her connection. The trio feel he is among the 'yeda banke peda khaana' lot.
Pratik talks to Moose one-on-one once again. She finds his connection with Neha weird because it looks like boyfriend and girlfriend. Pratik says he doesn't usually get comfortable with people but once he does then there are lesser boundaries. He further justifies stating that he treats her like a boy. The conversation ends with Neha entering between Pratik and Moose, kicking him and Moose calling them cute.
Pratik and Neha have to save someone from the nominations. Except for the duo, Raqesh and Moose, the whole house is nominated. Neha and Pratik argue about who to pick among Shamita and Nishant. She fights for Shamita while he fights for Nishant. The two have a long argument. Neha says she's okay to get out of the house but won't put her foot down because she has done nothing for her friends so far, which is 'so wrong'. The two then decide on saving Shamita from the nominations. Neha apologizes to Nishant soon after announcing the same.
Raqesh pampers Nishant in the kitchen by massaging his shoulders, while Shamita apologizes to Pratik in the washroom area. Neha also gives Pratik a hug standing, while Shamita does the same to Raqesh sitting.
Moose cries and asks her mom to save Nishant. She asks everyone to save him or eliminate her also because she doesn't want to stay on the show alone. Moose cries and says he deserves to stay and she should have been nominated instead of him.
Neha tries to talk to Nishant, who is eating food next to his luggage. The choreographer asks her to wait till he finishes his food. Then Neha walks out in the garden area and meets Shamita and laughs. The singer feels that the decision might affect Pratik and Nishant's friendship. While Neha says that Nishant is angry, Shamita calls Pratik 'immature' for trying to save his friend everytime. Still not talking to Moose, Nishant walks out of the room by clearing his throat. The social media influencer breaks down again.
Moose sits in a separate room and cries, which is when Nishant approaches her. He sits next to her and observes her. Seeing her look, Nishant jokes that Moose is listening to Bhumro Bhumro in her head.
Moose asks Nishant to break their connection instead and the two end up in laughter, with the choreographer calling her names. The influencer is upset that Nishant asked her for space. They ask each other to die after which Moose jokes she tried to do that the whole day. Their fight ends up in him kissing her on the cheek. When Moose talks to Nishant about the nominations, he says he doesn't care. She ends up saying she cares. Nishant calls them strong. When Moose asks for a hug, they hesitate and then end up giving each other a warm embrace.
Shamita complains to Raqesh about not having any task to perform and eating a lot. He asks her when was the last time she didn't have any problems, which leaves Shamita thinking hard. The two talk about her being so 'cribbity-crabbity'. Shamita asks him to 'go out' if he has so many problems.
The actress sits with Neha in silence. When the singer asks what's on her mind, Shamita speaks about how Raqesh calls her 'critical,' 'cribbing' and how he's scared of her. She calls herself an idiot for saving him by tearing off her mother's letter. Shamita says everything is very awkward since she has been single for a long time. Raqesh comes and sits with them as the two talk. After Neha walks away, Shamita says she doesn't wish to talk to Raqesh. The latter justifies his stand saying he was kidding. On hearing that, Shamita walks away, leaving Raqesh confused.
Neha asks Pratik what he wants from the house. She says that he has always been her weak point on the show. The singer says she is reliant on the actor emotionally.
Pratik walks in on Nishant and Moose talking. The actor says he has no justification for his action. Pratik feels he owes Nishant an explanation and the choreographer says he doesn't. Nishant further points out that he is friends with both Pratik as well as Neha. He recalls how Shamita said that she would rather be eliminated than perform a task, stressing that she doesn't value what she has but he and Moose do and are affected by eliminations.
Neha asks Raqesh to keep a point of view. He says that he can't while again stressing that he doesn't have a problem with being eliminated. Nishant consoles Raqesh, who is emotional over his matter with Shamita.
Bigg Boss announces that Nishant is saved thanks to the viewers. Moose, Neha and Pratik are extremely excited on hearing this decision. Moose gives him a hug. Thus, now Divya Agarwal, Millind Gaba and Akshara Singh are nominated for eliminations this week. Neha gives Nishant a hug while Pratik stands at a distance.

Moose, Raqesh and Nishant get into a group hug when she jokes about breaking her connection and being with the actor.

Bigg Boss announces the report card and the viewers are happy today. Raqesh and Shamita are then seen talking to one another. He is not sure about how to deal with her, mainly because he is misunderstood. Raqesh says he doesn't care about the show anymore, especially after Shamita kept on informing him that she tore the letter. The actor says he is really hurt and feels he's the wrong connection for her. Shamita asks Raqesh where she controls him. The actor says she controlled who he talks to. Shamita then says that she started talking to Nishant only because of Raqesh or she wouldn't have done it. Shamita has a fight and asks Raqesh if she doesn't get hurt. She almost breaks into tears while telling him that she hasn't played games with him or even generally since the first day. Shamita further says she went into self-preservation mode to protect herself since she has been hurt by the men she had been in a relationship with. The actress further tells him that they will not perform their task together anymore since she is equally uninterested in the game anymore. Calling herself a 'monster' and how her image has been built, Shamita tries to walk out when Raqesh talks about his disappointment. Upset after their discussion, Shamita throws her mic and walks away.

On hearing her, Neha goes to talk to her. The actress spills details about their fight and calls them 'serious trust issues'.
Pratik fights with Akshara for linking his name to Neha. Having no wish to argue, the Bhojpuri actress calls Neha right and herself wrong. Akshara tells Nishant and Moose about what Pratik did. The influencer says that Neha can't always be right. Pratik comes in the middle of the conversation and says that Neha will come and clear things up.
