As the first week of Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 comes to a close, the house is filled with intense emotions as conflicts and loyalty dilemmas take centre stage. The reality show, hosted by Salman Khan, premiered on June 17 and immediately captured the viewers' attention with influencer Puneet Kumar’s eviction. It has kept the audience hooked, thanks to the contestants who created unexpected scenarios and entertained the viewers. Here’s a look at the 10 most memorable moments from the first week of the show, streaming on JioCinema.

Captain Falaq is ‘Thakur’?

Actress Falaq Naaz assumed the role of the first captain of the season in the Bigg Boss OTT house, but not everyone is pleased with her holding the position. Actresses Palak Purswani and Jiya Shankar were seen discussing how Falaq has become dominant and is acting like the "Thakur" of the house. Palak believes that this dominance won't last long.

Cyrus dons chef’s hat

With Aaliya Siddiqui and Bebika Dhurve being imprisoned in the Bigg Boss jail and Falaq not allowed to cook, the cooking responsibilities have now fallen on Cyrus Broacha. Falaq took charge and guided Cyrus in preparing mutton.

Something’s brewing between Jad and Akanksha

A new connection seems to be developing between Dubai-based model Jad Hadid and actress Aakansha Puri. Jad, who already seems to be wooed by Instagram influencer Manisha Rani, was seen chatting with Akanksha near the jail. He said that it was unfair for her to be in jail when she hadn't done anything wrong.

Jiya and Palak bury the hatchet

Jiya and Palak, who had conflicts before entering the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house, seem to have reconciled after living together for a week. In a heartfelt conversation, Jiya and Palak cleared their misunderstandings. Jiya shared that initially she decided never to talk to Palak on the show. However, she told Palak that it didn't matter anymore, as she now considers Palak as her support-system. Jiya said, "Our issues may not be resolved completely, but it doesn't matter to me. I don't care about it. Honestly, I feel that I have someone by my side who is my person. If something happens tomorrow, I know you are there for me no matter what, and that gives me strength." Later, Palak became emotional and cried while hugging Jiya.

Avinash is not happy with Jiya and Palak’s reunion

TV actor Avinash Sachdev, who is Palak’s former boyfriend, was not happy with Jiya being in talking terms with his ex. In a conversation with Jiya, Avinash asked her to choose whom she wanted to be loyal to — him or Palak. Avinash was irritated by the fact that Jiya shared everything they discussed with Palak and vice versa. He made it clear that she couldn't play for both sides.

Bebika fights with Abhishek

While Bebika was locked in jail, Bigg Boss assigned her a task to read the faces of people and reveal their true personalities. Bebika read the faces of Jiya, Manisha, Pooja Bhatt and Abhishek Malhan as chosen by the audience. While reading Abhishek's face, Bebika criticised him for having a dual nature and also advised him to stop stealing content.

Abhishek got into a heated argument with her for these comments. He sarcastically suggested that Bebika should read her own face, so she could shut her mouth. This led to Abhishek and Bebika trading barbs.

Palak faces a tough choice

In a crucial moment, Bigg Boss presented Palak with a tough choice — either release Akanksha from jail or use 30,000 BB currency coins to buy essential ration for the house. Torn between personal relationships and the well-being of the entire household, Palak found herself in a fix, trying to balance loyalty and responsibility. She eventually chose food over friendship.

Jad opens up about his daughter

Jad opened up about missing his daughter, Cattleya Hadid, and cherished the memories they created in Dubai. In a heart-to-heart conversation with Akanksha, he shared stories of their time together, recalling the fun activities they enjoyed and the sweet moments of putting her to sleep in his arms.

Abhishek thinks Falaq enjoys being Cyrus’s assistant

Is Falaq genuinely enjoying her role as Cyrus's assistant, or is it a strategic move? In a candid conversation, Manisha and Abhishek discussed Falaq's approach in the game. Abhishek noticed that Falaq seemed more interested in being Cyrus's trusted assistant rather than actively participating in the game. This raised the question of whether she genuinely enjoyed her role or if it was part of a strategic game plan. They acknowledged the presence of a hidden force behind every successful player, propelling them forward.

Palak and Avinash exchange insults

The rift between Avinash and Palak hit a new low as they engaged in a heated argument. The conflict arose when Palak attempted to address past issues with Avinash and expressed a desire to have an open conversation. Unfortunately, this only worsened the situation instead of resolving their issues. Avinash and Palak traded barbs and the conversation took a hostile turn.
