Mannara Chopra and Munawar Faruqui
The latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 17 was loaded with surprises. Before taking the audience inside the house, Salman Khan introduced his niece, Alizeh Agnihotri who was on the show to promote her debut film, Farrey, with her co-stars Zeyn Shaw, Sahil Mehta and Prasanna Bisht. He took her to the newly launched area of the house, Tiger's Den. After Alizeh left the room, Salman entered the house and asked Isha Malviya and Khanzaadi to come to the Tiger's Den for a game.
Isha and Khanzaadi had to break skulls while pointing out three things that they should remove from their minds. The former won the first round. In the second round, they had to pick up a ball and whoever did it first had to protect it. Isha once again won the round.
Salman entered the house to play cricket with the housemates. He informed them of India's win in the World Cup 2023 Semi-Finals and the entire team wished them luck for the final match tomorrow. The cricket match inside the house came with a benefit. Vicky Jain, Munawar Faruqui, Neil Bhatt, Abhishek Kumar and Samarth Jurel had to score maximum runs and avail extra kitchen hours. Salman joined them. Their total score was 54, hence they can access 54 hours of the kitchen throughout the week.
Salman returned to the stage and welcomed Alizeh along with the star cast of Farrey and MC Stan who is the voice behind the title song rap. The four lead actors played a fun game with the housemates. Salman asked Alizeh to compete with Sunny Arya in naming his films. The person who gave the maximum number of names won the task. Team Bigg Boss 17 won it over Team Farrey. Abhishek Kumar and Samarth Jurel had to compete with Zeyn and Sahil in doing planks and holding their postures for the longest time. The former pair won it. Ankita Lokhande and Prasanna Bisht competed in guessing the tune of songs right. The final round was between Mannara Chopra and Alizeh. They had to do signature dance steps of iconic songs. Both the rounds were won by Team Farrey
