Nomination notes

  • ^Note 1 : Housemates were grouped into seven pairs. Niketan, for not being chosen by any housemate to form a pair, was made the House captain.

The housemates however faced eviction individually.
  • ^Note 2 : Sidhu refused to vote when called into the confession room, therefore, as punishment Bigg Boss nominated all housemates. This created conflicts among housemates and resulted in protests against Bigg Boss. Sidhu was asked to reconsider nominating two housemates. Nominations concluded when Sidhu contemplated on giving the two names.
  • ^Note 3 : In a twist to nominations housemates were told to nominate two houses they would like to save from eviction. Vrajesh being the house captain was immune and was not asked to nominate. With receiving no save votes Rajev, Sana, Sayantani and Urvashi were, therefore, nominated.
