BB has a narrative - every damn season - and they do all and sundry to shove that narrative down our throats, by editing, whitewashing, defending, and what have you. Like you said - there's a hero(ine) and a villain or villains. Phir hero/heroine kitne bhi khud evil aur ghatiya soch wale ho, crap kare aur bole, they will try to present them otherwise. And vice versa for the chosen bad guy. And you're on point with the side characters too - very much needed for use and throw.
For me, it's as NP said above - the idea of reality shows, and in particular this concept is to show us all sides, as far as possible, of a contestant - and do this through tasks and situations that shake up dynamics, as opposed to shitty editing, and most importantly through as much fairness and equality as possible - and then let us decide for ourselves.
And what I still fail to get, even now, is why that's so difficult for the makers to do? Why is it so important for them to push a narrative? I get that some bias is inevitable - in favour of content-givers over free loaders - but they have always gone far and beyond that. Kya ho jayega if they simply let it be, and let whoever wins win? Beats me.
Haha. How can I foget lol.
You were dumb, and I was dumber. 😆
Don't think much has changed on that front with time either. 😆
And thanks to this season's mindless twists, turns and all the failed spanners that BB are trying their level best to throw in just to favour the chosen ones, I've got no grey matter or the drive left whatsoever to even attempt at dissecting this season's blatantly scripted malarkey on a serious level.
Especially this season has become a right joke.
From past few seasons there's no reality left at all on BB anymore.It can only be called scripted reality.
The show has truly lost the essence of the original format of it being a social experiment where a bunch of people are put under different mentally, physically strenuous scenario's to evoke certain desired reactions. Yes, there is manipulation from BB even in its original format but that's only to see how each individual reacts under these fabricated situations(such as tasks mainly) and how they go on about it to come out on top of things and victorious in every given situation.
Its supposed to be all about the mental strength(that is the key) as that's the name of the game. Also helps when characters have a great personality to go with the mental side of things too.
The person that had the mental strength this season Neha gets booted out. 🤪Just cus she had become possible threat to their chosen one.
Also no outside feedback or interaction with outside world is allowed in original format but here Bolly stars come to do nach gaana inside the house, Contentestants Mama Mami, nana naani, bhai behen, kuttta, billi, Padosan... basically all and sundry come to give feedback, advocate or give support in some way.
In short-yaha toh sab kuch allowed hai.
What's the need to be even locked up in a goddamn House then?
In the UK format and other BB's abroad there is no connection with outside world whatsoever, so contestants don't even have any inkling at all on what us going on in the outside.
The host comes once a week speaks to the house only to announce who the evicted contestant is. This is done from outside the house itself with a crowd, and this crowd noise is played into the house. It is only from the boos and cheers they get a little idea of whether they are being liked or not by audiences. That's it.
No other connection or feedback from outside world.
Anyways, after all the complaints and rants I am still watching every season lol.
Guess I must be really sad and have no life. 😆
Oh Jesus! Looks like I got carried away and this has actually turned out to be quite a long abba dabba jabba of a sermon as well. 😆
