Conflict, tension, accusations, rising tempers and a lot of drama was in store for Bigg Boss 13 viewers in the nineteenth week. While the contestants were using all their might to redeem themselves from the nominations, it also brought out the worst in the contestants giving rise to multiple fights.
On the first day of the week, Hina Khan entered the house and handed the contestants five placards with 'Badshah', 'Begum', 'Ghulam', 'Joker', and 'Ikka' written on it. The connection members had to vote among themselves and confer the suitable housemates with the titles. As the discussion began, a heated argument took shape.
Asim was declared as Ghulam given his actions indicate the same. Himanshi defended Asim and in turn, believed that the tag of Ghulam should have been given to Paras. He retaliated and got into an argument with Himanshi but Asim come to the rescue and they two had a massive war-of-words.
On the other hand, Shefali felt Vishal deserved the tag of Joker because his relation with Madhurima was like a joke to the housemates. Vishal's brother Kunal felt that Shehnaaz should have been tagged as a joker because she is hurt on a daily basis by Sidharth yet she chooses to go back to him. Sidharth disagreed and reminded Kunal that unlike Madhurima and Vishal, there was no violence between him and Shehnaaz.
During the Weekend ka Vaar episode, Salman decided to take the contestants to stand in a
courtroom set up to clarify issues that had been simmering. Salman asked Asim whether the proposal he made to Himanshi was real or fake. Salman also told him that when Himanshi was not clear whether she wanted to marry him, why was he pursuing her relentlessly? He also blamed Asim for making Himanshi's life public. Salman also questioned Asim if there is someone waiting outside for him which he denied.
Next, Himanshi was called to take the stand. Himanshi, who had come in as a connection, was asked not to reveal anything about the outside world to the housemates. But, she broke the rule by telling Asim and Vishal that she had spoken with Arhaan outside and discussed Rashami and his matter in detail. Salman asked her why did she do that and why didn't she tell this directly to Rashami instead and asked Rashami whether she knew about Arhaan's wife and child since Arhaan told Himanshi that she did. A huge fight broke out between Rashami and Himanshi and the former asked Himanshi to tell Arhaan that she had nothing to do with him.
Later, Bigg Boss announced that Vishal Aditya Singh had received the least votes and thus had to leave the house. The television star who made his entry as a wild card contestant was remembered for his constant fights with ex-girlfriend Madhurima Tuli. Madhurima hitting Vishal with a slipper and then with a frying pan, and even slapping him had created a lot of stir on social media.
To cheer the contestants and boost their morale, the star cast of Malang entered the house to promote their upcoming film and had some fun with the contestants inside the house. They presented the housemates with an array of skulls named after each one of them. One by one, they had to smash the dummy skull of the contestants they thought was their biggest competitor.
Later, Salman welcomed the Malang cast on stage. Disha Patani made Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor play basketball but with a twist. Salman and Anil also enacted a slow-motion fight from Salman's movie Andaaz Apna Apna leaving everyone entertained.
The next day, Bigg Boss announced that Sidharth's period of interim captaincy had come to an end. Up next, the contestants were called up in the garden area for a press conference. While the contestant dreaded it, they geared up to face the barrage of questions from media.
The media started the question and answer session and the first one was darted at Rashami. A media representative asked her about her relationship status. She said that she doesn't seem to have a future with him (Arhaan) and wanted to focus on her career.
Sidharth, too, was grilled by the scribes about his aggressive behaviour throughout the show. Sidharth replied that he merely gave a reaction to an action. He said that he just raised the bar that the other person had set. He can be good if someone is good with him and that he can do worse if someone is bad to him.
Asim was questioned about events in the recent episode and whether he had a girlfriend outside the house. He made things clear and said that he wasn't dating anyone and is in love with Himanshi. When Mahira was quizzed about not listening to her mother's advice and giving a lot of importance to Paras, she said she liked his strategies which is why she listened to him. On the other hand, Paras was asked about his constant name-calling for his girlfriend.
Arti was asked why she was under-confident about winning the show? Arti promptly responded that earlier she didn't think she would last for even two months. But her journey so far and her brother Krushna's advice instilled new hope in her and she became more confident.
Shehnaaz was taken aback when a scribe questioned her friendship with Sidharth and if it was real or a part of her game plan. She was constantly probed about the flipper tag that left her bewildered. Post media's exit, Shehnaaz broke down and she asked Sidharth to stay away from her as she could not take criticism anymore.
The next day, Bigg Boss announced a task that would give the non-elite club members a golden opportunity to win immunity. In this task, Paras, Mahira, Aarti, and Shehnaz had to sit inside turtle shells until the next buzzer. If they failed to do so, they would lose out on the only chance to win immunity. While Rashami was the sanchalak, Asim and Sidharth were allowed to use tactics to pull them out of the shell.
The buzzer rang and the four contestants took their places inside the turtle shells. Asim tried to make the task a difficult one for the contestants to survive inside the shells by putting Mirchi powder. After spending considerable time inside, Shehnaaz hatched a plan with Rashami to get Mahira out of the game. According to her, Rashami could disqualify Mahira if her hand is out of the shell. Rashami complied and eliminated Mahira from the task followed by Paras for putting their hand out.
This got Paras infuriated and he pulled out Shehnaaz and Arti out of the shell. Going a step further, he destroyed his and Mahira's shell in anger. Paras and Mahira decided to give Shehnaaz the task of her own medicine and stuffed talcum powder in her shell. In the end, no one could win the task.
Later, Bigg Boss announced another task that would give the nominated contestants a second chance to win immunity and secure their place in the finale week. In the task, Paras and Mahira were locked in one jail while Arti and Shehnaaz in another. Each jail had 5 gates. The immunity card was placed in between the two jails and one contestant had to cross all the gates to win immunity.
While Rashami and Asim chose Arti and Shehnaaz, Sidharth decided to support Paras to return the favour for the last nominations when Paras had saved him. The first gong rang and Asim tried to block Sidharth from taking the key but he managed to grab it. Sidharth opened the gate for Paras. This left Paras in tears as he didn't expect it while Aarti and Shehnaaz seemed heartbroken by Sidharth's act.
