Jasmin could have been the winner instead of Rubina

When the show started, the most popular among all the contestants was Jasmin Bhasin(she was even more popular than Rubina), cause she has the most followers on social media and also she was the topper in Ormax after Sid, not sure about general public.

So Jasmin already had a clear advantage here. So what went wrong?

From first week though Jasmin was always promoted by colors she was never a good player as BB contestant, though she was really good in tasks she didn't utilize this strength of hers very well.

In her first month she was quiet, only active in 2 matters one was fought in the first week vs Nikki/Eijaz and another was when she went hyper out of nowhere regarding the Rahul matter but that didn't keep her in a good limelight. Even though she wasn't doing much she was still one of the likeable ones till that Rahul incident happen. She got lucky she didn't get evicted earlier thanks to her popularity. Even after that, she needed colors to save her(contestants like Nishant and Rahul who were less popular than her ended up getting more votes than her) and evict the ones who actually did better.

Wheras Rubina she was more active player from start. The way she had guts to speak against the demanding seniors and also she even went on to speak against Salman, that's where her game started. To survive in Bigg Boss, you need to provide content from start no matter how popular you are or not, even if you are not popular if you provide content, channel will still save that person over the popular ones via unethical methods. Plus Rubina was anyways most popular after Jasmin so that helped her.

Even after that Jasmin was still one of the popular ones, when channel even sent Aly as her support system who turned out to be a strong player, instead of her game being improved her game was downgraded.

Yes she did provide more content after Aly came, but the way she changed was unrealistic and unrelatable. If she showed that personality from day one, probably it would have been a different case. Due to this, audience started disconnecting to her, and she started losing votes there. The consistency wasn't there in her journey.

To connect to the audience and survive in the show, two factors are important content and being real. No matter how positive or negative personality one has, if they stay real audience still like them, but there is also a limit to maintain.

Rubina's personality was consistent throughout and that's why she connected better to the audience more unlike Jasmin who needed one person to change her completely, and thats why she came across as fake.

If Jasmin maintained one personality from start and fully utilized her strength in doing well in tasks she could have been the winner instead.

And one more thing, audience connect to those contestants who can handle situations well. I would give one example to differentiate between Rubina and Jasmin and how they handle situations. When Rakhi went to Julie mode,Jasmin bullied her and made fun of her, she would lose her temper and just show hate for Rakhi. Wheras Rubina what she did was, she played along with Rakhi and made it fun instead. Thats where Rubina stands out. She didn't need to change her personality for that.

If Jasmin maintained her personality and handled situations better, she could have been the winner instead of Rubina(who seems to be the obvious one to win for now)

I feel Jasmin isn't a bad person thats why I never hated her, but the way she played the game and displayed her personality was so ridiculous, she had many advantages too, but her game plan was really weak.

Its not Rubina... but Aly ruined her game.

She did two major mistakes fought with Rakhi, went personal and second she was on to Vikas.

Besides that the mean things she did are actually qualities tht BB likes to be on the show.

Ya that's what I meant. Rubina played the game better and Aly made Jasmin's game worse.

Especially the fight against Rakhi, made her look so negative.

Agree with your post fully

Jasmine 'biggest drawback was that she did not learn from her mistakes.She had a problem with those showing her mistakes and that resulted in her making blunders again and again.Presence of Ali in the house further worsened the situation for her,though I believe Ali genuinely wanted to help her .

Her downfall was the week with Rakhi and nose. The fact she didn't let it go even after 10 days and then going back and asking Rakhi to apologize instead of her apologizing to Rakhi made her look like some devil. She couldn't carry that bacchi sweet image anymore and channel had to take a stand against the bullying she did.

Hina was worse but her attitude was somewhat consistent , Jasmine fluctuates between acting like Bacchi and Chudail

She keeps hatred deep inside and when it comes out it disgusts ppl

Rubina is perfect in no way but her fans know how she is - atleast she doesn’t pretend

• Jasmin was good in tasks but after aly’s entry he dominated in that reign and tried to influence her game esp regarding tasks from day one - even from that cabin
• Jasmine got that support to go against Rubina - she was dying to come out of Rubinav’s shadow - more after Puppet and Nishant ‘s exit that cemented the belief that they were Rubina’s puppets 😆

• Jasmine never learnt how to Move on

She keeps stretching same muddas like chewing gum

• Never allows the audience to forget the incident . Audience might forgive or forget certain incidents but she is so stupid - repeats it again and again and keeps it afresh in audience’s mind

• She took her popularity for granted .RKV’s exit was red flag for her should’ve been more .But she was still over confident and targeted Arshi and Rakhi - considering they have less vote bank
• She was a bully to Ejaz and Rakhi , sometimes Arshi too - never a likeable quality (proved she’s a shukli lol 😆) anyways
• She wasn’t outrightly bashed like Rubina and abhinav , she was bashed yes - but Salman was lil more soft on her. She was whitewashed sometimes too . So sadly she didn’t get that kinda ‘host is biased’ sympathy too 😆
