It's time to ask yourself, why are you biased?

Yes, it's a serious topic.....if it bores you, sorry ignore it, but I have to address some of the biases our society has & this forum reflects. As an educated individual, I take offence when society as a whole does something wrong or supports something wrong, even if I am alone, I will stay forum with my opinion & do that every season.


Why the hate against Bollywood? This is a fake narrative started with Sushant Singh Rajput death. It clearly shows on Twitter & IF that a contestant gets bashed for any small reasons just because that person is connected to Bollywood. TV actors also gang up on Bollywood these days without giving fair chance. Whether it is Aryan Khan or BB contestant give a chance to know a person, don't pre-judge.


Speaking in English is elitism? Why? In a Hindi show, speaking any other language is equally wrong, and all are offenders. But BIGGEST person at falt is BB creatives, BB OTT allowed a lot of English because VOOT watchers are primarily English speaking, so obviously, the flow continued. And why Marathi or Punjabi speaking is not elitism? That's your colonial insecurity speaking.. sorry to say this, but English s India's national language too.


Stating your opinion firmly is dominating? Was Siddharth Shukla dominating? Was Gautam Gulati dominating? No right... may be Guahar was dominating or Rubina was right? That's your patriarchy speaking. You focus on her controlling her boyfriend, you dont focus her on cutting vegetables or washing dishes? Why because women are born to be maids & men are worshipped when they do no housework ( a past winner who is no more). I thik BB is a show to show personality & take stands, for me I will never vote for a person who never speaks up, bitches behind back, even if he a BIG TV name & is face of MTV shows.


Age shaming? Why Rashami or Afsana keeps referring to her as old/ senior etc? Is it insecurity speaking of your body weight & failure to maintain yourself? Sorry I will prefer a HOT aunty over dull-looking personality-less kiddo.



In the end, I see her as dominating, speaking her mind, well dressed, good looking, impeccably styled, always taking a stand, can persuade people in her way, and fixes relationships with people even after fighting: THESE ARE qualities of a winner. If you have not judged Siddharth Shukla, don't judge her too.


Now, I have not named anybody. But if you have these judgments & pseudo notions, you yourself will know it's about whoom!

None of the previous winners you named got special trearment, special diet, special holidays out of house, friends and relatives coming to help them. Thats the biggest turn off for the audience


In Guatams case for example, his potrayal was one man against the entire house, BB and salman all seemed against him and hence he got public sympathy. BB and salman scolded him every weekend


In shamitas case she is against others but no one dares be against her, BB and Salam support her and listen to her every need. They never scold her


You dont get audience sympathy that way. And janta is janardhan, you can call them biased or whatever, in the end they are the paying viewer

Shamita whatever she is, at the end she is real and it’s her personality! Good, bad, ugly etc but it’s her! Yes she comes across as controlling, so is Teja or Karan are! Anyways this season is a disaster so what can be even judged or discussed! But saying don’t judge won’t be apt as this show is all about judging everyone’s personality and that’s why this show is made! Everyone were judged and their opinions were dissected & discussed so it will be like that! If they don’t like to be judged then they shouldn’t be in this show! Sidharth, Gautam all were called names and judged too, I don’t know where this notion came that they weren’t judged! They were & each and every contestant is here for the same reason

For a second, let me agree with all your points. So...? who is smart here? If you can make things run your way, you won't? That's the quality of a winner.

The winner in the end is those who get most votes. You might have an easy time but can drive audience away. Her methods didnt let her win OTT so why do you think it will help her win the main Bigg Boss

Fair enough. Prejudice & double standards are prevalent is society so I cant expect Shamita to get high votes. But watching BB for 15years, having watched BB Canada, Aus, BB UK, I genuinely & categorically feel she has the best winner-personality this season. Votes...I can't control it. Even Rahul Roy won over Carol Gracious, Juhi Parmar won over Mahek Chahal, Siddharth won over Rashami/Asim.

Talking about Privileges.. Lets not talk about.. Karan Umar Teja... Earlier Shammo was bashed for having her friends though they had their contract from OTT so they were part of it and Rajiv was brought in for Leshan.. Here you gave Tejran ki Sasural going on with Rashmi as Bhabhi Umar as Devar and Dumboleena as Nanad.. Rakhi as Dadi Amma.. Rashmi and Devo are friends of Karan and family from outside and they Are helping him.. Daily heavy promotions are done to promote fakerun.. Spoon feeding by celebs to help Karan improve his game doesn't raise eyebrows to his fan club?... We all know Karan is the chosen one thanks to his MTV and Colors background..Manisha Sharma.. So don't understand this targeting of Shammo..

Yes true... but men are judged at a lower benchmark than women. Especially a strongly opinionated woman, who doesn't change her voice to flirt with other men or flirt with Salman.

if a man has dominating nature it's termed as heroism but if a woman has than it's wrong and crap things are said about it.
