#BiggBossRankings: More TWISTS as it's Team Hina Khan v/s Team Vikas Gupta this week

It seems the Bigg Boss housemates just don't like the individual rankings we allot usually. Nevertheless, the team game got immensely stronger this week and it was one team against another, but of course, with some unanticipated exceptions.

This time, we also have a different team captain instead of Shilpa Shinde and it is none other than Vikas Gupta. So, it is Team Hina Khan against Team Vikas Gupta. Let's rock and roll-

Luv Tyagi may have gotten a ZERO tattooed for Hina in the past, but he might as well get Hina Khan tattooed too as his loyalty stayed put towards Hina once again. He can deny as much as he want to, but boy is he a mere puppet and the same was evident when he was catapulted by Hina, Sapna Choudhary and Priyank Sharma in the nomination task to apparently save him from the nomination. He tries his best to sport a macho avatar time and again, but fails miserably all the time.

And when it comes to Puneesh Sharma, he had a really quiet week except for him being the subject of the 'you-betrayed-me' saga according to Akash Dadlani. Owing to the nomination task, the former best friends duo was forcefully absent, but his decision to not spray paint Hiten and help Akash for the captaincy contention was received with a lot of flak. Was it fair or was he the betrayer of friendship is surely debatable, but Akash-Puneesh's bromance may certainly not be prevalent anymore.

So, when it comes to this duo, Luv takes the cake for the week as opposed to Puneesh.

A rather mellow week for Shilpa Shinde was actually good to see. Even though, I did agree with Team Hina members on how Shilpa did not deserve to be amongst the best performers of the luxury budget task, she does deserve to be the captain. Her trying to coax Akash to calm down and her surprisingly amazing alliance with Vikas makes her an important member of Team Vikas Gupta.

And meet the latest member of Team Hina Khan who can now be easily manipulated too. And that is none other than Sapna Choudhary. The lady may he fiery and fearless, but is actually so easily manipulated by Hina Khan time and again. She doesn't understand the game for sure and apart of her unimportant stint in the nomination task, she was even bizarre as the judge in luxury budget task. Biased and vengeful, there couldn't have been a worse judge. A member of Team Hina Khan, Sapna needs to be herself real soon, if she stays safe from elimination.

Being the more sane and fair individual person amongst the duo, Shilpa Shinde clearly wins this one on one battle.

No no no! I haven't put them together owing to the 'link-up' romance between the duo. The reason Hiten Tejwani and Arshi Khan are in here together is how Hiten, for the first time had a genuine alliance with someone and Arshi's alliance to Vikas was equally loud. The nomination task had Vikas as the mastermind, but it was due to the support of Hiten and Arshi, they were able to stay safe from nominations. Arshi's word war with Priyank and the whole case in luxury budget task has Vikas' wits at play again and even though Hiten was the opposite party in the task, his preference towards Team Vikas was as pronouncing as it could get. That may have irked usual 'friends' Priyank and Hina, but Hiten was firm and unconcerned.

When it comes to Priyank Sharma, if you had an ounce of respect for him even till today, then you may lost that now. Insensitive, demeaning and pathetic, Priyank did not cease a single opportunity to berate Arshi and what makes it worse is his language. While, I understand that Arshi is no saint herself, his remarks about Shilpa and Arshi being 'fat ladies' and '70-80kg ki hoke baithi hai aunties' etc was so despicable that he certainly lost all the little respect he had garnered. Team Hina Khan had a slut shamer and now they have a fat shamer too!

Needless to say, Hina and Arshi CLEARLY take the win here and can be ranked amongst the best contestants this week too.

If we would have taken only the first three days of this week into consideration, Akash Dadlani would have clearly been Team Vikas Gupta; however owing to the whole 'Puneesh-betrayed-me' saga, Akash is neutral once again. As mentioned, him being irked about Puneesh's apparent betrayal is debatable, but a hurt Akash is currently neutral.

Of course, Bandgi Kalra is clearly a part of Team Vikas in every manner, but I am certain that the viewers would have been pleasantly surprised by Bandgi this week. Her confrontation with Sapna showed her powerful side and her performance as the judge in the luxury budget task was absolutely phenomenal. Even though her people were in one team, she did not favour them for the sake of it. Bandgi's neutral side and her powerful independent avatar was fantastic to see and we hope we see this Bandgi a lot more.

Coming to both the team captains, Mr Vikas Gupta clearly is the best ranked this week too. Once again, he was at his strategic best throughout this week and even though his claims about Hina Khan during the luxury budget task weren't completely true, he along with fellow teammates manage to win hearts for sure.

Yet another week where we continue to see Hina Khan degrade her image. Even though there were some pointers where she did make sense, her unwanted and stupid emotional outburst on Shilpa-not-cooking-an-egg to her so-called 'giving away' captaincy contendership for Shilpa and then making a ruckus about it by re-voting cemented the fact how cunning, selfish and ruthless Hina Khan is.

Even though we adapted the team format this week, the rankings stay true to it's essence and with over four people winning the one on one battle, Team Vikas Gupta is certainly the better ranked one here.
