On December 29, another contestant was eliminated from Bigg Boss 18, leaving viewers with the top 10 contestants of this season. She was none other than Sara Arfeen Khan. However, the episode was not at all emotional as host and superstar Salman Khan celebrated his birthday on the show.

Bollywood singer Mika Singh, along with Krushna Abhishek and Sudesh Lahiri, joined Salman Khan to celebrate his birthday weekend in grand style. Krishna and Sudesh entertained everyone by posing as Jackie Da and Mika Singh. Adding to the festive mood, Mika Singh performed Salman’s popular song “Aaj Ki Party Meri Tarf Se”. The housemates surprised Salman by performing on his most popular songs.

During the ceremony, Salman Khan addressed the housemates on the Weekend Ka Vaar stage, giving some reality checks which left everyone shocked. Kashish Kapoor was at the center of controversy, facing criticism from Salman for his alleged hypocritical behaviour. She accused Avinash of turning their harmless flirting into a romantic angle for the camera.

However, Salman revealed that Kashish’s behavior was misleading Avinash, who seemed indifferent. Her explanation that it was all in fun was rejected by Salman, who accused her of being an instigator while playing the victim.

In another twist, Krushna Abhishek entered the Bigg Boss house and engaged the housemates in a game. Vivian Dsena was asked to give fake flowers to the contestant she felt was the fakest. He chose Karanvir Mehra, which led to a conflict. Karanvir called Vivian the show’s ‘ladla’ and accused her of jealousy. After an intense confrontation and a series of amusing actions, Sara Arfeen Khan was thrown out of the house. The top ten finalists of the season are Vivian Dsena, Karan Veer Mehra, Rajat Dalal, Avinash Mishra, Kashish Kapoor, Eisha Singh, Chum Darang, Shrutika Arjun, Shilpa Shirodkar and Chahat Pandey.

Bigg Boss airs every Monday to Friday at 10 PM and Saturday-Sunday at 9:30 PM on Colors and a 24-hour live channel on JioCinema for premium subscribers.
