The day started with Sidharth flirting with Shonali. Shonali was missing her family and got very sentimental, Sidharth saw her upset & lent his shoulder. He tried to make Shonali laugh by passing some silly jokes.  Lakshmi observing this called Sidharth and teased him. Followed by this, contestants received Diwali gifts from their loved ones. These gifts were specially delivered inside the house to lighten the overall tense atmosphere. Everyone, except Pooja Misrra, became really emotional upon seeing their gifts. Pooja Misrra seemed uninterested in the gifts sent to her by her friends. Adding to the joyous feeling in the house, captaincy nominations were held. Contestants were asked to choose between re nominating Shonali as the captain or electing a new captain. The poll was completed a new captain for the upcoming week was finalized. Pooja Bedi and Mahek were upset about who was chosen the captain for the coming week. The duo was also stunned at Lakshmi's votes and confronted her about it.

For the coming week, Sharadha and Sidharth were given the task for dish washing and the cooking team, comprising of Juhi and Pooja Bedi, expressed dissatisfaction with their work. Juhi was disappointed with Sharadha’s work because she felt Sharadha was not doing a good job at cleaning the dishes and they were still dirty. Juhi then asked the captain to take the issue up with dishwashing team and ensure that they did their job well. Irritated about the way she was being treated, Sharadha approached everyone in the house at different times and spoke ill about Pooja Bedi.

In the evening, the housemates were provided a few items along with the idol of Goddess Lakshmi in order to conduct a small Lakshmi Puja to celebrate Diwali. All the housemates were overjoyed at this and begun preparations for a Puja. Soon after the puja, a task was announced for the contestants.
