Just one point, what afsana did was on purpose for sure, else she wudnt have repeated it. And to add to it, she went even farther down by her words to say afsana's buttons even otherwise were open. As for karan, he was manipulative for sure when he claimed to shamita something vishal had never actually said.
With Afsana, I feel there's so much lost due to semantic problems communication which distorts her words in a completely different way than intended. For example, last night when she first mentioned the button thing, even I was left fuming as to how she could make such a crass remark about another woman but then when she explained what she actually was hinting at, it seemed plausible to me. I'm not justifying her actions or words, all I'm saying is I can see how her intended message could get misconstrued due to the context of the conversation, doesn't mean she was taking a jab at Akasa's character. Again, not saying this is what actually happened, could have been otherwise, just shedding some light on the possibility since she was adamant about this being the case.
Karan wasn't being manipulative. He just pointed out something that was clear as day. Shamita's favoritism would have been visible even from outer space.Nishant clearly told him about the offers Vishal made to Shamita, to win the the task, so he knew for a fact that Tiger team was going to enter into the house and the game's rigged from the start. Maybe he used other names to save his source. Was that the best move? Probably not. I would have put the point forth without mentioning any names but that still doesn't make it out to be manipulation. Manipulation must result in some advantage to oneself, Karan wouldn't get anything out of it other than just the satisfaction of letting Vishal and Shamita know that everyone knows of their bargain. I feel like that was his whole point.
