Bigg Boss 10 saw the captaincy race reach its final stage on Day 12, with the contestants battling it out for the chance to become the first captain of the season. After several rounds of tasks, five contestants remained in the race: Thrigun, Ram Prasad, Mukesh, Jhansi and Shalini.
Bigg Boss introduced the “Chikku – Dorakaku” task, which turned the captaincy race into a physical and strategic battle. The five contenders had to escape the jail whenever the gates opened and reach the safe zone, while the remaining housemates served as guards. The guards could stop the contestants they did not want to see become captain.
The task quickly became intense as the housemates picked their targets. Shalini faced strong opposition from Varshini, Naresh and Debjani, while the other contenders also had to find ways to get past the guards and stay in the race. With every round, the number of contenders kept reducing, making the final stages even more competitive.
Eventually, the battle came down to Jhansi and Ram Prasad. The two competed for the final captaincy spot, with Jhansi managing to come out on top. She was announced as the first captain of Bigg Boss 10, marking a significant moment in her journey on the show.
The episode also had some lighter moments before the captaincy task took over. Ram Prasad and Naresh entertained the housemates with a fun skit, giving the contestants a brief break from the intense competition.
With Jhansi now holding the first captaincy of the season, it will be interesting to see how she handles the responsibility and whether the position changes her equation with the other housemates.
