The
August
18
episode
of
Bigg
Boss
OTT
begins
with
Shamita
Shetty
apologising
to
Akshara
Singh
for
her
yesterday’s
fight.
Neha
Bhasin
and
Shamita
are
miffed
with
the
Moose
Jattana,
Nishant
Bhat
and
others
for
separating
them
because
of
their
status
quo
and
giving
the
'Tata
and
Bata’
tags.
Raqesh
Bapat
is
really
bothered
by
the
two
groups
forming
in
the
house.
He
tells
Bigg
Boss
about
his
difficulties
as
captain.
Bigg
Boss
informs
him
that
it
is
his
responsibility
to
make
sure
each
housemate
follows
the
rules
or
else
they
can
be
punished.
Soon,
the
ongoing
Panchayat
task
resumes.
In
the
3rd
round,
one
connection
has
to
be
declared
as
the
weakest
by
the
housemates.
Nishant
and
Moose
have
joined
the
Panch
alongside
Shamita
and
Raqesh,
who
are
the
Boss
Lady
and
Boss
Man
of
the
house
this
week.
Eventually,
three
connections
end
up
taking
Akshara
and
Pratik’s
name
for
the
weakest
connection
tag.
Shamita
and
Divya
Agarwal
also
get
into
a
heated
argument.
They
start
taking
personal
jibes
at
each
other.
In
the
meantime,
as
Shamita
and
Raqesh
fail
to
come
to
a
decision,
Pratik
ends
up
calling
Raqesh
spineless.
The
latter
defends
himself
by
saying
that
people
know
who
he
is,
to
which
Pratik
tells
him
that
now
they
do.
Eventually,
as
the
housemates
are
unable
to
decide
the
weakest
connection,
Bigg
Boss
announces
that
all
the
housemates
are
now
nominated
for
elimination
this
week
including
Raqesh
and
Shamita.
This
is
followed
by
Pratik
feels
sorry
for
calling
Raqesh
spineless
and
apologises
to
him.
Raqesh,
on
the
other
hand,
tells
Pratik
and
Nishant
that
he
doesn't
want
to
play
the
game
anymore.
Following
this,
Raqesh
had
an
emotional
breakdown
and
was
later
comforted
by
Shamita.
Meanwhile,
Pratik
and
Ridhima
Pandit
are
seen
sorting
their
differences
as
well.
