Bigg Boss 16 Oct 13 HIGHLIGHTS: BB tasks Archana Gautam to shut up and not talk; Shalin-Gautam lock horns

After a major argument in the start of the episode, Shalin and Gautam sort the issue between them. Shalin asks Gautam to not ruin the friendship because of girls. 

After completion of the task, Bigg Boss gives chicken to Shalin and considering Archana's love for adhrak, she gets ginger. 

Gautam and Nimrat enter Archana's room to look for the hidden 'adhrak' as they take advantage of Archana's silence. Contestants make Archana talk and take up 'Adhrak ka matter.' Abdu also tries to get Archana to talk. Meanwhile, Shalin tells Archana that if she gets power after the task, she should save him. 

Bigg Boss calls Shalin and Archana to the confession room to tell them that the actor has to be Archana's voice from now. With this, Shalin gets the opportunity to earn two packets of chicken. 

After listening to everyone’s opinion, Bigg Boss asks Archana “Now till my further update Archana will keep quiet with everyone in the house and will not speak at all.”

Bigg Boss asks the contestants to name a person, who's voice irritates the most. Sreejita takes Archana's name. Archana names Soundarya. Priyanka names Archana. Ankit also names Archana. Shiv, Abdu, MC Stand, Manya, Soundarya, Tina, Gautam, Sumbul, Shalin name Archana. Sajid names Manya. 

Bigg Boss calls Ankit into the confession room. Commenting on his game, Bigg Boss said that he only observes and does not engage in the house much. When Bigg Boss asks him to talk about the contestants, he says that Sumbul is a little lost in the house and Tina is playing a game and is strategically forming bonds.He also terms Shalin-Tina's bond 'fake'. Talking about Priyanka, he said that she does not keep anything to herself and tries to get indulges in other's fights.

To tease Shalin Bhanot, Gautam Vig hugs Tina Datta and says 'ye mera roll-on hai.' However, visibly begrudged Shalin returns the blow by kissing Soundarya Sharma on the cheek. This does not go down well with Gautam, who disparages it as a cheap move. 

Quarrel erupts in Bigg Boss house with Archana Gautam plundering a piece of ginger from one bedroom to her own. For the unversed, the food items were allotted as per the requirements of each of the four bedrooms by the captain. However, Archana's act spurs a massive ruckus in the house. She says that she bought the piece of ginger from her home, and it is in her purse (bag).  

The latest episode of Bigg Boss is here! The contestants woke up to the BB anthem 'Bigg Boss ke Vasi'!
