The rumours were easy to believe since similar tasks have taken place on Bigg Boss in the previous seasons. Earlier, when the reality show used to be shot in Lonavala, the mall task would take place in Vashi, Navi Mumbai. This season, the location of the house switched to Goregaon Film City. And the nearest mall from there is, indeed, Oberoi Mall. Bigg Boss 13: Hina Khan Feels People Should Stop Watching The Show So That The Makers Are Forced To Change The Format.

As per a report by IANS, according to a source close to the show, there was no such task planned in the first place. In fact, there are videos, which have surfaced on the Internet, showing police entering the mall to control the crowd, and ask the fans to go back.

Rashami's official Twitter handle, which had asked fans to get to the mall to support her at 10 a.m. in a now-deleted post, also apologised for the miscommunication. "If any inconvenience caused to anyone due to this whole mall-task confusion apologies because we as their official handles also just followed the "Various News" we saw on Twitter/Instagram/Facebook pages… Thanks a lot for all those people who came out for support #TeamRD #StayHome," the post read.
