The task took place in the BB Assembly Room, where this week’s captain was to be selected from Team Red. The contenders each had to present their case and convince the rest of the housemates why they deserved to wear the captain’s badge. As expected, the session saw persuasive pitches, passionate arguments, and shifting loyalties.
Both Amaal and Mridul laid out strong points — highlighting leadership qualities, task performance, and their ability to maintain harmony in the house. However, when it came to the initial vote, the house was split evenly between the two, resulting in a rare tie.
Bigg Boss then announced a tie-breaker round, giving housemates one final chance to cast their deciding votes. This time, the majority leaned in favour of Amaal Mallik, giving him the edge over Mridul and officially crowning him the new captain of the Bigg Boss 19 house.
A Victory That Surprised Some, Delighted Others
Amaal’s win comes at a critical time in the game. Over the past few days, he has been earning praise for his calm yet assertive demeanor, particularly in how he stood up for his close friend Tanya Mittal during a recent personal conflict with Kunickaa Sadanand. His ability to balance empathy and authority may have played a key role in swaying the housemates’ votes in his favour.
On the other hand, Mridul — known for his straightforwardness and task commitment — took the loss in stride but was visibly disappointed. Several housemates acknowledged that both contenders were deserving, making the choice all the more difficult.
