He announced the final six nominated contestants through his performance. The list included Neil Bhatt, Aishwarya Sharma, Tehelka (Sunny Aryya), Soniya Bansal, Sana Raees Khan, and Khanzaadi.
Before the nominations began, Mannara Chopra was moved from the Dil room to the Dimag room, making the nominations more unpredictable. The Dimag room now consisted of Munawar Faruqui, Khanzaadi, and Mannara Chopra, while the Dum room included Anurag Dobhal, Sana Raees Khan, and Arun Mashettey.
More details on the nomination process
The nomination procedure commenced with Bigg Boss instructing the Dum room to select eight contestants of their choice for nominations. Unbeknownst to them, the Dimag room contestants were watching their choices. As a result, the Dum room nominated Munawar Faruqui, Rinku Dhawan, Navid Sole, Khanzaadi, Neil Bhatt, Aishwarya Sharma, Isha Malviya, and Abhishek Kumar.
The Dil room had the task of saving two contestants from this list. In conclusion, Abhishek Kumar and Isha Malviya were saved among the nominated contestants. This decision left Munawar Faruqui surprised and disappointed, as he thought his friends, Vicky and Ankita, would save him.
