BB19: How Shehbaz, Amaal's prank exposed real friendships

The Bigg Boss house woke up to an unexpected mystery that soon turned into a day full of drama. Right from the morning, housemates were shocked to find that clothes, rations, and even daily essentials like ghee and salt had suddenly disappeared.
Baseer asked everyone to check their suitcases, while Gaurav suggested searching in front of him. The search, which started with the suitcases, ended up covering the whole bathroom area and other corners of the house, but nothing turned up. Thinking Bigg Boss was behind this, Baseer even requested new towels

Nehal came up with a theory that it might be a secret task. Since only Awez and Baseer’s belongings were missing, she guessed Bigg Boss could be planning a choice task where they would have to decide between getting their stuff back or bringing Natalia or Nagma back into the house. Baseer wasn’t sure but clearly said he would give up everything for Natalia if such a choice came up.
Shehbaz was the one behind all the chaos. He planned a prank and secretly hid clothes, food, and kitchen items. Captain Amaal also helped Shehbaz hide the items, though he later stayed unsure whether to admit his role in front of the housemates.
Shehbaz even told Amaal that Zeishan should know about the prank since some items were hidden under the bed where Zeishan slept. Amaal asked Shehbaz to handle it himself. Shehbaz then informed Zeishan and made him promise not to reveal the secret, and Zeishan agreed.

The prank soon turned ugly when the housemates continued searching and guessing the culprit. Kunickaa said she could only think of one person who could have hidden the kitchen items, and it was Abhishek. However, when everyone got to know Shehbaz was behind the prank, Baseer and others questioned him about who else was involved. Shehbaz admitted it was only him, but no one believed him.
The housemates soon gathered to decide Shehbaz’s punishment. Amaal announced that Shehbaz’s cigarettes would be taken away and that he must handle the daily duties of Abhishek, Awez and Baseer. The only way to end the punishment was to apologise to Abhishek and Pranit.

Farrhana also stood by Shehbaz, while Abhishek and Pranit demanded a clear apology. Though Shehbaz apologised to the rest of the house, he refused to say sorry to Abhishek and Pranit.
What started as a simple prank soon turned into a full-blown clash, with arguments and shifting loyalties splitting the house. In the end, it revealed the true dynamics, showing who was genuinely supporting whom and who was simply looking for a reason to pick a fight.
