In Indian reality show 'Bigg Boss' no relationship lasts for long - be it friendship or love.

This season, contestant Sonali Raut has been trying hard to bring in the romance quotient in the house and has been hunting for love in the show.

Initially Sonali showered Gautam Gulati all her attention and got cozy with him on the same bed.

But Gautam's effort to bind Sonali to him didn't work.

Fickle-hearted Sonali ditched Gautam for Upen Patel. Soon the girl was repeating her cozy act with the hunk of the house.

This week it's the test of friendship between the P3G (Puneet, Praneet, Pritam and Gautam).

Past couple of days saw Praneet and Gautam engage in arguments regarding the negative attitude Gautam has towards rest of the house members.

Praneet's word of advice was not appreciated by Gautam and the start of friction between the two.

Yesterday's (Oct 30) episode revealed the real Puneet Issar.

Here's what has happened in the house last night (Oct 30).

During the day, Bigg Boss announced new captaincy elections and asked the housemates to volunteer their names with legitimate reasons.

Gautam volunteered, hence becoming the first contender to compete for captaincy.

Other housemates had to then decide on one contender who will stand up against Gautam. Upen was selected with group consensus.

The task required both the contenders to choose two partners of their choice who will support them in the task. 

Upen selected Aarya and Ali. Gautam wanted Praneet in his team but the later excused himself, Puneet also tried his best to not participate.

But in the end Gautam forced Puneet and Pritam be his team member.

On the battle ground, both Upen and Gautam had to hold one black pole each, while the selected partners would try to detach the opposite contender from the pole and drag him towards the given white line. The person who will be dragged towards the white line first, will lose.

Before the task starts, Diandra, Praneet and Karishma were seen trying to convince Pritam so that he supports Upen’s team. 

When Pritam discusses the matter with Praneet, he said that Gautam brings lot of negativity in the house.

During the task, it took Ali and Aarya few seconds to drag Gautam to the white line.

Puneet says he was nervous to use his physical strength due to his previous tiff where he had hurt Gautam physically.

As a result Upen wins the task and is announced as the new captain of the house.

A back stabbed Gautam is seen talking to himself post the task as to how Puneet could have done better.

Gautam was unaware that Puneet betrayed him and did everything deliberately.

Puneet was later seen telling other housemates that he did not play loyally with Gautam as he wanted Upen to become the captain.

Gautam confronted Puneet and Pritam about what had happened during the task.

Puneet admited to Gautam that he could have done better but he didn’t and therefore is guilty about it, smoothly getting away with the betrayal.

Upen resumes his responsibilities as a captain and delegates task to the contestants.

It will be interesting to see the bonding between P3G and how long this friendship survives.
