Would all the contestants be this rude

I mean in their minds, they don't view Meenaxi as one who's playing fair. So all of them team up with the bullies or do nothing to stop the bullying.

Same for Sameer since he's Meenaxi's friend, so none of those who might have naturally stepped in are doing so.

This is why DC is not exactly right in his "life lessons" for Meenaxi. He's absolutely right that she has to make sacrifices for success, and that success will not be easy--she must endure many things and earn it. He is absolutely right that she needs to stop being so trusting, start looking out for herself, not let herself be cowered, and learn to stand up for herself.

But as for the nature of people and DC's and Meenaxi's opposing philosophies--well he is right and she is wrong only because of his own manipulation and maneuvering. In actuality and reality, they are both right and wrong; it's not absolute.

The show has started airing then. I'm guessing all the rudeness and meanness by the contestants will be shown in the upcoming episode, as they were preparing the promos. If that's the case word will reach Meenaxi's family. And unless the contestants are cut off from outside communication, some of them also will be warned that they are not coming off well in the show.

Sameer. He's such a real character, imo. And Akshat is way too egoistic and obsessed. While Akhsat is right that Sameer has to buckle up, he went about it absolutely in the wrong way. Akshat never bothered giving Sameer a chance. He completely agreed with Karishma and her tagging of Sameer and her own partner as losers.

And what's even more is before the first practice Sameer had just been taunted. You saw him controlling himself. It's all just building up. So that affected his practice. Akshat, while his frustration is understandable, made it worse with the way he went about it. Especially with his choking Sameer right before the performance.

Pretty, has somewhat warmed up to Meenaxi. This is believable, except for one thing. She too was there when Bobby said what he did. In a way, it also doesn't make sense that she wouldn't be happy that Meenaxi was her partner. Because if she's already chosen to win, then it's good for Preity to be her partner.

But then again--maybe I can believe they have all come to view the matter as not set in stone and anything can change anytime.

Because as of now, there are things that just don't match up.

Has Preity discounted it all? Or she just doesn't care? Or has she forgotten it?

So they all got more and more confident in taunting Meenaxi. Okay. But then why doesn't anyone of them think and wonder why they were allowed to do so if DC favours Meenaxi.

Perhaps they too have discounted it and are not giving it much thought. Or maybe they take Bobby's declaration with a grain of salt, and think nothing is set in stone as Bobby had said.

This is why DC is not exactly right in his "life lessons" for Meenaxi. He's absolutely right that she has to make sacrifices for success, and that success will not be easy--she must endure many things and earn it. He is absolutely right that she needs to stop being so trusting, start looking out for herself, not let herself be cowered, and learn to stand up for herself.

I feel that right now when the whole thing started as Meenakshi enters the academy, its barren empty she is enterting a world according to her is white .. and no spots are there the dark spots.. We all know white is perfect and clear, but spots are there not visible to naked eye, so to magnify it one needs to spray some dark spots , but how u absorb these dark spots and win over it clearing and making it white my guess is what DC is telling Meenakshi with Life Lesson and SHE and only She has to do it..

Right now her plate was empty and clean but she is getting the clues with instances that it has some good stuff and the BAD stuff falling on her plate..

Just mapping things to my understanding .. I hope I can justify the life lesson what DC wants to show in the reality part he makes.

I remember what you are talking about. And yeah I figure this might be the case too. That like Karishma, they don't view Bobby's statement as set in stone, and that they will get the votes and TRPs.

Preity, I guess she's decided to let bygones be bygones.
