First of all, It's an impactful beginning. I liked the crisp editing & less amount of gimmicks like BB13/14 this time. The episode was cut as short as possible. Only Rekha i's exit as ViswaSunTree was jarring to ears! BUT I hope the nonsensical theme of Jungle etc goes out of the window ASAP, game starts after that fake Jungle exists in a week or two.
- Jay -Seems like a last-minute addition to the show after Rhea Chakraborty backed off. He is popular but I don't have high hopes, sorry to say this but he is too timid & will get bullied on the show. I am basing my judgments on what I have seen of him in Iss Jungle se mujhe bachao & Khatron! How far he will go: 2 months
- Vishal -He was trying too hard to be a mix mashup of Govinda & Ranveer Singh. But common it's a personality show & he lacked that clearly. How far he will go: 1 month
- Tejaswi -Cute, funny but timid, she lacked the fire. But she is popular & has a good image with channel from Khatron Ke Khiladi. How far she will go : 3 months +
- Vidhi -Seemed very boring, cute but not effective. How far she will go: 1st or 2nd evictee
- Simba -Strong, sensible, captures screen space. We have to see how smart he is, if he can show some real relations in 1st week with either of Karan/ Shamita/ Donal /Prateek he will be a lambi race ka ghoda. Somehow I feel there will be enmity between him & Prateek soon. How far he will go : 3 months +
- Umar -He seemed over-prepared. I like him a lot & I am a Massive Asim fan.. but..... I don't see him doing well. Also, the channel & Salman will surely make fun of him to get back at Asim for declining all Colors offer in the last two years. But Asim's crazy fandom will push him further anyways. How far he will go: 2 months
- Ieshaan -Boring..... just boring. Nothing but body! But ........ I heard somewhere there is some Bani J -> Ranvijay -> MTV-> Endemol connection he got. If that is so we all know how Manisha Sharma works. How far he will go: 1 month
- Donal -She is here to rock. Contrary to most of the forum's opinion I feel she will be one of the major names this season. I see her in the finale .. yes I do! How far she will go: Finalist
- Akasa -Seemed sensible, just have to see how smart she is. It will surely help that she has enough industry connections including Salman Khan. How far she will go: 2 months
- Karan -Popular, charismatic & ETTREEMEEEE level of backing from Endemol/ MTV/ Ranvijay circle. Most definitely here to stay. PS: I feel Anusha Dandekar will make a wild card entry & we will be bombarded with breakup drama! Please no Colors! How far he will go: Finalist
- Afsana -Wanna be Shehnaaz. Will be out ASAP. How far she will go: 1st or 2nd evictee
- Sahil -He is not that popular, but my gut says he will be one of the major players this season. Am I the only forum member who has seen him in Amazing Race? He was good there in strategies & smart thinking. He is Salman's brother's friend BTW. How far he will go: 2 months
- Meisha -Typical MTV quota, won't stay long. How far she will go: 1 month
- Shamita - Definitely here to stay. We could ot see her game in BB OTT because of Raqesh. in BB15 he is definitely not coming which will hugely help Shamita. She needs to pick friendships & enmities well. And waiting for someone to bring Raj Kundra this time, which nobody did in BB OTT! How far she will go : 3 months +
- Prateek - I have mixed feelings about him. You may disagree with me, but his game was around Neha in BB OTT. If she is not here he won't do well, if she comes as the wild card he will be FInalist. How far he will go: 2 months or Finalist
- Nishant -Unlike BB OTT, the audience here is different. I have a strong gut he won't be liked this time. How far he will go: 1 month
Another prediction, I feel more than 2 couples coming out of the show this time!!
