Introducing a fresh format, the makers roped in three former champions Gauahar Khan, Hina Khan and Sidharth Shukla as ‘Toofani Seniors’ to mentor the ‘Fresher’ batch. During the launch, they decided which housemate they wanted to accept and reject, and even got them to do some tasks in order to get an entry in the main house. And after 14 days, these seniors will choose which contestants get to go ahead in the game. They even picked Sara Gurpal as the first housemate to get evicted in the show’s first week, leaving fans and freshers shocked.

(I thought I would die)," he said.

Before entering Bigg Boss 14 house, Nishant Singh Malkani told indianexpress.com, "I did watch the last season a lot and really enjoyed Asim Riaz’s journey. He came as an underdog and managed to make his mark. And I think this because he was so real on the show. He was called chamcha, but he never broke his friendship with Sidharth Shukla. It was only when he felt he was wrong, he went against him, and took him head on. Asim could do that because he was true on the show, and knew he was also right. I look up to him as one of my favourites and feel that we are similar people."

Hina Khan chooses Abhinav Shukla while Gauahar chooses Rahul Vaidya. Sidharth states Abhinav has been vocal and involved in the game in comparison to Rahul. Gauahar says Rahul made his presence felt more this week, but she goes with the 'aapsi sehmati.'

In a conversation with Caller of The Week, Pavitra Punia says she will keep in mind to do the best in the game. When Salman questions why viewers are confused, Pavitra says she has been playing honestly and because she did not know many in the house, she opened up slowly. She says she was scared to give opinions, but Salman suggests to put up a fight as and when required and not limit her friends in the house. Salman says he wants Pavitra to buck up and bring out her personality in a better manner.
Pavitra Punia gives marks to the men in the house. She gives 8 out of 10 to Sidharth, 5 to Eijaz, 5.5 to Nishant, 4 to Rahul, 2 to Jaan and 6.5-7 to Abhinav.

Salman Khan warns freshers to buckle up as the next two days are crucial for the contestants.

As housemates were confused, Salman Khan gives the decision of eviction to the Toofani Seniors Gauahar Khan, Hina Khan and Sidharth Shukla. Gauahar says Shehzad is less active and after Sara's eviction, he got lost. Hina also supports Gauahar. Because Shehzad, Jaan and Abhinav get equal votes, Sidharth becomes the decider, but he says he would not evict anyone because everyone is opening up right now. But after Salman forces him, Sidharth takes Shehzad's name.
Jaan Kumar Sanu votes for Abhinav Shukla for eviction saying that he cannot understand him. Nikki Tamboli votes for Abhinav stating he is not really interested in the game. Rahul says Abhinav's conversations are irrelevant for the show. Nishant says Abhinav does not understand Bigg Boss as a game.
Jasmin Bhasin says Jaan Kumar Sanu is a very nice person, but she says he is losing his personality in the house and is perhaps the most confused personality. Rubina also votes for Jaan. Abhinav says Jaan is lacking clarity in thoughts.
Shehzad Deol votes for Jaan Kumar Sanu for eviction because while he is a good person, he is not able to bring his personality to the fore.

He says he has been participating in the task and giving his 100% in the show. Nishant Singh Malkani vouches for Shehzad as a contestant who deserves to be in the show, but soon Nikki Tamboli jumps into the situation, and the conversation between her and Shehzad takes a turn for the worse. Jasmin Bhasin, Pavitra Punia and Eijaz Khan also support Shehzad.
Jaan Kumar Sanu says he is discovering himself on the show. Rahul and Nishant vouch for him being the right fit for the house and the game. Jasmin says while she liked him initially, he is confused of late. Rubina and Pavitra say Jaan is not as committed as he says he is towards his friendships in the house.
Abhinav Shukla says it doesn't matter what he says as the people in the house have already made their opinion. He gives suggestions to Rubina and asks her to play smart.
Producer Vikas Kalantri says Eijaz Khan, Pavitra Punia, Rahul Vaidya and Nikki Tamboli are "the real players."
In an interview to Times of India, Shehnaaz Gill said she is watching Bigg Boss season 14 but only till the time Sidharth Shukla is in the show. "I am watching the show because of Sidharth Shukla. I won’t watch it after he exits. Jitni der woh ghar mein hai, dekhungi, baad mein nahi dekhungi,” Shehnaz said.
