Bigg Boss 9 Day 30: Rishabh-Diganana become ‘DigRi’ (Degree); Puneet lashes out at Mandana for her “foreign” food!

The new day begins on a light note as the housemates wake up to the song Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar Ke. Later, we see Rishabh offering his counsel to Digangana by asking her to beware of assuming others to be her friends and stop being Miss Goody Two Shoes. On the breakfast table, everyone is seen teasing Digangana for having a soft corner for Rishabh and also fondly name their Jodi as ‘Degree (Dig-Ri)’. Although Digangana denies having any sort of feelings for Rishabh, she is unable to hide the smile on her face whenever there is a conversation about Rishabh.

Later in the day, Bigg Boss introduces a task named as ‘Highway’. The contestants are divided into two groups- team A consisting of Mandana, Rochelle, Digangana, Aman and Rishabh while Team B has Kishwer, Suyyash, Prince, Rimi and Puneet). According to the task, when one team is sitting on the cycle rickshaw and peddling through 4 cities, the other team has to put in efforts to get the members off the cycle rickshaw. After reaching a destination, both the teams have to complete with each other for another task and then resume cycling. Team B is the first one to start cycling while team A leaves no stone unturned to distract and irritate them to give up. They try various tactics like throwing cold water, oil, chilli powder, and waste from the garbage bin to bother team A contestants. But team B remains unaffected and determined and stays on the cycle rickshaw. Rimi surprises everyone by actively doing the task while others try to bother her by hiding her favorite makeup pouch.

Team A tries many tricks to irritate Team B and make them lose the task. When Aman from Team A breaks the umbrella by poking it in the wheels of the rickshaw, BB is forced to summon Rishabh and instruct him to ensure that his team mates refrain from breaking the house property or the rickshaw. Next, Mandana brings turmeric paste to throw on Team B. However, Puneet is quick to retort saying that Mandy is using turmeric because it is not used in her “foreign” food. Mandy and Rochelle shout back at Puneet asking him to avoid using racist words. However, Puneet and his team mates go on arguing that they did not mean to be racist.

Before dusk sets in, team B reach their first destination, Kochi, where they have to perform another task. In the activity area, both the teams compete with each other by making a human chain and pass on raw fish by holding it in their mouth. Rimi and Diggy supervise their respective teams for the task. Team A emerges as the winner of this task and they are given the power to remove any member of the opponent team. They unanimously kick out Prince from the Team B. However, Prince and Su-Kish laugh off this call and remark that Team A does not know how much their decision will cost them. Prince begins his work by stealing Mandy’s clothes from her suitcase and hand them over to his team. A catfight ensues between Mandy and Kishwer as both the parties try to get their hands on the stolen clothes. Prince receives brickbats from Team A for helping his team despite being removed. Prince, however, defends his actions saying that it is a written rule of the task that he can support his team even if he cannot perform the task with them.

After completing the task, Team B gets back on the cycle rickshaw while Team A continues to pull them down. Later, when Team B reaches their second destination Surat, Mandana and Suyyash are pitted against each other in a dhokla eating competition. Further continuing the task, Mandana and Rochelle decide to target Rimi and irritate her to leave the rickshaw. Mandana is upset with Rishabh for not supporting her and decides to give up the task. Meanwhile, Team B reaches their third destination which is Jalandhar where there is a kabaddi match between Suyyash, Aman and Rishabh. As the task continues throughout the night, it will be interesting to see if Team A succeeds in breaking Team B’s morale and become the winners of the task.
