Already the season has delivered on what Bigg Boss is expected to – fights, resentment and a whole lot of drama.
During Bigg Boss 14’s virtual press launch, host Salman Khan revealed his reasons for resuming work with Bigg Boss 14. Expressing concern about the aftermath of the long lockdown that halted all production work in tinseltown, the actor shared that he felt he needed to start working so that others could also earn. “The biggest reason that I am doing Bigg Boss is because I wanted people to start earning again. A lot many people died of COVID and also hunger. Bigg Boss has a big unit and gives employment to a lot of people,” Salman shared.

We receive such disgusting DMs, and friends, who you have grown up with, sometimes also talk rubbish about you. I have learnt it the hard way and now I do not get bothered about others’ opinions. You know who you are when you see the mirror, and that’s the only thing that matters."

Ex-Bigg Boss contestant Shefali Jariwala praised Sidharth Shukla, who has joined Bigg Boss 14 as one of the 'Toofani Seniors.' In a tweet, she mentioned that the actor is "so entertaining."
In today's episode, we will see the first major fight of the season as Sidharth Shukla, Gauahar Khan and Eijaz Khan will get into a war of words over a weekly task. While Gauahar and Eijaz will accuse Sidharth of sabotaging the task, the Dil Se Dil Tak actor will defend himself saying it's a game and he will play it as it pleases him.
The drama has started to unfold in the house of Bigg Boss 14. In Monday's episode, 'Toofani Seniors' Hina Khan, Gauahar Khan and Sidharth Shukla got to exercise their full power. They were made to give various tasks to the 'Rejected' contestants (Rubina Dilaik, Nishant Singh Malkani, Sara Gurpal and Jaan Kumar Sanu) so that they could prove their worth and enter the house.
All the four rejected contestants put their best foot forward as they did whatever was asked of them. Nishant Singh Malkani agreed to wear a bikini over his T-shirt and get 'Rejected' written on his forehead for an entire week. Sara Gurpal cut her hair short on being asked by the seniors, and Jaan Kumar Sanu got a mohawk haircut. Rubina Dilaik refused to stay in the same clothes for a week but agreed to eat a bowl of green chillies in a minute.
The entire house was impressed with the performance of the four contestants. Bigg Boss gave them the power to decide among themselves that who three should enter the house and who should stay outside the house. They mutually decided that Rubina's performance was not good and hence she would not get to go inside the house.
Next morning, Rubina Dilaik got into an argument with Jasmin Bhasin over what seven essentials should they demand from Hina Khan. Rubina wanted her slippers and shoes, and Jasmin needed her makeup products. Sara Gurpal and Nikki Tamboli also fought over the issue but ultimately made peace with each other.
On the fun side, Sara teased Sidharth by calling him the son-in-law of Punjab, referring to his linkup with Shehnaaz during Bigg Boss 13. Jasmin, Nishant and Rahul joined the conversation. Siddharth also pulled Rubina's leg for being conscious about hygiene.
Bigg Boss will today assign the first task to the housemates. The task titled Entry Pass is for the rejected freshers of the season who will have to win their entry into the Bigg Boss house by performing tasks assigned by the 'Toofani Seniors'.
Until the next announcement by Bigg Boss, housemates are allowed to take only seven things from BB Mall, which comes under 'Toofani Senior' Hina Khan's control. While Rubina wants her pair of slippers, Jasmin argues with her for her make-up.
In a conversation with indianexpress.com, Jasmin Bhasin said she is excited to show her fans how headstrong she is. When asked, "If you are allowed to take one person along, who would you take?", Jasmin replied, "Bharti Singh would be best."
