The housemates were introduced to the initial captaincy task of Bigg Boss 19 by Bigg Boss, along with the task’s regulations. The task quickly became a source of conflict. The house experienced a division during the captaincy task. Each round resulted in one contestant’s elimination. Contestants began to plan for the task. Zeeshan argued with Tanya, criticizing her actions.
When the first buzzer sounded, all the contestants hurried to the garden area. Following the first round, Basir eliminated house number 2, featuring Amal Malik and Mridul Tiwari. Zeeshan teased Amal and enquired who would pick up the slippers, to which Amal responded the captain, and everyone laughed.
The second buzzer went off. Basir, Amal, Mridul, along with Aavez, Nagma, and Natalia, chose to destroy a house. Later, Basir discussed with Aavez how they would prevent Abhishek Bajaj, Praneet, Gaurav, and Zeeshan from becoming captain. The third round began, and the eliminated contestants chose which house to break down.
They decided to eliminate Neelam’s house. During the fourth round, the contestants participated in the merry-go-round and split into various houses. Basir announced that he wished to remove Tanya and Praneet from the game. Zeeshan, in collaboration with Basir and others, strategized to stop Abhishek or Gaurav from becoming captain. Following the fifth round, Basir announced the evacuation of the room with Zeeshan, Nehal, and Gaurav.
Bigg Boss announced the end of the captaincy task. Kunika, Abhishek, and Ashnoor were named as contenders for the first captaincy of the house. Tanya later became emotional as she thought about her mother. She stated that no one appreciated her and she was tired of washing dishes. She subsequently revealed to Kunika that Gaurav wanted Ashnoor to be the captain, resulting in Kunika’s anger.
