Teja has always come across as a strong contestant from the very beginning and throughout the season she proved that. The way she handled the PC, the way she took stands for what she believed in, the way she was loyal to her relationships and the way she performed tasks.
But it was after the devo Bichukle incident, when she was the only one who stuck to her stand and even stood up against Salman that she came out as a clear winner and forged ahead of the rest.
Have been saying this since long, that the fight was always for the 2nd spot coz the 1st spot was clearly Teja's.
