Bigg Boss 16 Jan 30 Written Updates: Nimrit Is FIRST Finalist; Archana and Mandali Fight Over Cooking Tasks

Bigg Boss 16 is getting closer to its conclusion as drama and controversy mount with each new episode. The convicts are doing their best to start conflicts and undermine one another to win the grand prize while a small group of contenders manage the home.

Below are updated highlights from the Bigg Boss 16 January 30 episode:

Nimrit and Archana argue about who has to do the cooking.

Inmates sing the Bigg Boss song, followed by a scene showing Nimrit and Archana fighting about Archana using all the remaining flour in the house. As a result of her starting arguments with Nimrit and Shiv, Archana declines to cook chapatis for the mandali.

Nimrit asserts that if Archana shows up hungry, she would use her hunger as leverage and crush her face. Nimrit is poked by Archana, and Sumbul and Stan go to her defence. Archana, according to Mandali, is trying their patience.

Together, Priyanka and Archana

Mandali, according to Archana, exhibits no humanity. Nimrit interrupts Archana as she begins to prepare food for everyone, and the two argue once again, this time over a remark Archana made.

Confess in private

In the confessional, Priyanka is asked to pick the prisoner she would want to have influence over, and she chooses Shiv. Shiv then adopts Priyanka's name, and then Shalin takes Shiv's name as well.

Overview of the captaincy assignment

Priyanka is requested to take Sumbul's tag, Shiv is asked to take Archana's tag, Nimrit is asked to take on Priyanka, Sumbul and Shalin are asked to take each other, and Stan is asked to take Nimrit's tag in a game of tag.

Shalin and Sumbul, Archana and Priyanka, and allies. After Priyanka and Shalin argue, Sumbul nominates Shalin, and Shalin destroys Stan's tag, Nimrit destroys Priyanka's tag. Bigg Boss cancels the assignment due to complete chaos and violence, once again preserving Nimrit's leadership.

As a reward for becoming the first contestant to go to the finals, Archana gives Nimrit a piece of candy.
