I honestly don't think the trp dropped because of them bwcause if you actually calculate the screen time for them and others, they episodes (except for 1) wasn't dedicated to them. The makers are not giving them tasks and some scenes that are actually worth it are not being telecasted for god knows what reason.
The fact is no body is doing anything because they don't have anything to do.
No proper task
No proper nomination or elimination
No captaincy
No luxury budget
3rd class sponsored tasks ( sometimes 2 times a week)
The actual viewers reviews are not being shared, makers are giving reviews as per what they want and not the viewers.
I am saying this basis the episodes and the livefeed and I honestly watch the livefeed 24*7 - that free I am.
This year the contestants are good but they have not been given the opportunity to play and strategize. Jungle thing started on a good note but since then it has just dropped.
To add, there has been blatant favouritism for few which is very evident. Contestants are going out coming in as per their own whims and fancies.
This season the makers are to be blamed. TejRan are not editing the episode, makers are. Dont show them if others are doing amything else show them. We cant blame them - KK oe Teja didnt ask them to show their scenes. And I dont think theybare faking it, it will cost them their reputation which is important for Teja atleast.
