He's been called mastermind, but lately I've seen people staring that the true mastermind is Dreesanth, and Romil is nowhere close to Vikas Gupta who was a true mastermind.
My question is can't there be two masterminds in a season? Do all masterminds have to be similar?
Romil is fantastic at tasks, he has a sharp brain and he has a following in the house. He gets along with almost everyone, and I don't see him as a target for anyone (except of course when it comes to nomination to get rid of a strong contender). He doesn't use vulgar language, or say cheap things (Deepak in the Jasleen incident), he's proved to be a good friend (maybe it was fake mahaanta).
Let's compare him to the others:
Sreesanth: never completes any tasks, fights easily, vindictive. Has betrayed almost everyone once. Even his own friends have begun doubting him. Yes, he has a very sharp brain but without support to carry out his plan, his smart tactics may not work.
Karanveer: he's confused and lost. He's fantastic at tasks, has good relations with all (except Sreesanth) and has a fan following. He's too gullible and doesn't see through people. He can't play mind games.
Dipika: she's pretty good at most tasks, huge fan following, but she isn't really shining. Until a week ago, she was living in Shrees shadow, this week she's suffering the effects of her partiality (I thought she was fair), and she's not in the limelight as much. Unless she changes her game drastically she is fading into oblivion.
Deepak: he's good at tasks, studied previous episodes, does drama, knows when to shed tears, tried a love angle (which hasn't worked). He's being a people pleaser now. Though he's with happy club l, he blurted his plans to Sreesanth, he's sailing in several boats at once. He's soon going to start backstabbing people.
Somi and Surbhi: they're pretty good at tasks, stubborn, loud, will do anything for trp. But both of them lack a brain. Enough said.
Jasleen: She is a good performer, but she isn't firmly in any group. If they have to eliminate someone from their group, Jasleen will always be the first casualty. Also, what Anup Jalota has said outside might affect her votes.
Srishti: she's only seen when Bigg Boss is forcing a love angle between her and Rohit. She's not active much otherwise. Not had an opportunity to judge if she's smart or not.
Rohit: mostly I forget he's still on the show.
Megha: she's smart, she's performs very well in tasks. She's not a firm part of any group. Her only fault, she came in later as a wild card and lost out on forming relations with most housemates. Now close bonds have been formed and she's trying to fit in. Sadly, she'll leave soon too.
Shivashish: he comes across as a great guy. He's a real softie. While he does occasionally tell Sreesanth he's wrong, he's mostly just blindly following Sreesanth. I don't see any individuality in him.
Clearly (in my opinion), Romil is the most deserving. Alas, due to his non celeb status he had no fan following when he entered, and even now his fan following can't be compared to KV, Dipika or Sreesanth. Had he been a celebrity and played like that he would have won fir sure.
P.S: I know Manveer was a commoner who won. If Bigg Boss wants a commoner to win, it'll probably be Deepak. The gareebi, gaon wala card always works.
