Aishwarya Sharma, Neil Bhatt, Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande in Bigg Boss 17

The Diwali Weekend Ka Vaar was an explosive one. Salman Khan greeted the audience and took them inside the house for an intense session of grilling. Before he met the contestants, a clip of a fight between Mannara Chopra and Khanzaadi was shown. The former was getting ready for the episode and asked the latter to give her way to iron her clothes. Khanzaadi got frustrated over it and asked Mannara to let her iron her clothes first. Amid the verbal tiff, Khanzaadi said she doesn't care about Mannara and won't be bothered if she's alive or dead. Jigna Vora told her to calm down. The matter escalated and Khanzaadi and Mannara's fight turned further ugly.

Salman greeted the housemates. He pulled Isha Malviya's leg by singing the song ‘Aayega, aayega aane wala'. The actor also teased Munawar Faruqui, Samarth Jurel and other housemates. Salman asked Aishwarya Sharma to imitate Ankita Lokhande and vice-versa. The episode turned intense when Salman touched upon the topic of disrespecting spouses. He showed clips of Aishwarya mocking her husband Neil Bhatt by imitating him in front of other housemates in his absence.

The host reminded Aishwarya of how she often scolds and ill-treats Neil on the show with her tantrums. Highlighting their relationship graph, Salman said she disrespects Neil. The actor came out in her defense. Salman said such behaviour is harmful in a relationship.

Salman pointed out the same issue with Vicky Jain. He called him out for disrespecting Ankita and never gives her the kind of love and support she deserves. Amid this, Mannara was left in tears. After giving his say on the previous matter, Salman asked Mannara to speak her heart out. Throughout the week, she kept expressing her desire to go home. Reacting to that, Mannara explained how people don't welcome her and don't make her feel that she belongs there. Salman showed her the mirror and she felt better.

Later, Neil wanted to talk to Aishwarya about the issue. However, she refused to engage in any conversation as she felt people might call her the 'villain'. Neil tried to calm her down but she lashed at him and said he isn't being real inside the house and his voice pitch during fights can get louder in reality. On the other hand, Vicky apologised to Ankita and said he wants to maintain distance from her. Commenting on her bond with Munawar Faruqui, Vicky told that Ankita trusts the comedian more than her husband and pays heed to whatever he says.

Towards the end of the episode, Katrina Kaif came to promote Tiger 3 with Salman. After Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa's comic act, the actress gave the housemates an interesting task. The house was divided into Team Tiger and Team Zoya. Whichever team won the activity would be declared the winner. Team Zoya won the task. The housemates were also shown special messages recorded by their family members on the occasion of Diwali 2023.
