It’s just sad really. Karan is obviously what one would call an overt gamer - like he played in the first couple of weeks - with an ability to move pieces around as he wants, but in an upfront way. He’s not one to play these underhanded, passive aggressive manipulations that people like Nishant and Teja favour. And as a result - he’s the one getting played. Though I’m glad Teja’s shit didn’t work totally - he’s still calling out Nishant on the weekend.
Teja twisted and presented an exaggerated version of Karan’s “game” to both Karan and the audience. Karan doesn’t tell the JWs shit about the OTT people or to not talk them - he simply reminds them that Pratik and Nishant are a firm unit, and it’s important for them to be united against that. Which is hardly the dirty game Teja made it out to be.
Teja’s game on the other hand? Fight with everyone - and then run after and try to play nice with the very same people. And then shade Karan for what she is actually doing. Not to mention her multiple-dholki shit. She knows he’s a threat to her for the win - and she’s out to slyly cut his patta - by pretending to be his friend and confidante, and screwing him over in the process. And I think it might just work - though it’s a real shame.
I dislike Shamita a lot - but even she seems like a better person than Teja at this point to me. Note: this is from a personal level perspective. Baaki everyone is entitled to play their game - and I have nothing against that.
