I have been reading about this "He has a PR", "She has a PR" , "He or she is a fixed winner, "BB is favoring him/her" crap for long here and just feel like putting my 2 cents on this topic...
Claiming that a contestant's popularity is JUST PR is such an idiotic, illogical reasoning. Just becoz someone YOU don't like is popular and liked by many does not mean that person has a PR that is driving the popularity. It probably means MAJORITY of the audience has a different POV and opinion than you.

I mean MOST of the celebrities worth their while have atleast a small PR now a days. Its a given in this day and age. The PR's job is to improve their image by planting articles in their favor. So I guess most of the contestants have some PR agent.

BUT no PR can drive audience opinion or make people like or dislike a person. And NO "celebrity" who has to resort to a show like BB will be "rich" enough to have such a a huge PR team that they can influence the entire countries audiences, media etc, . If they can afford such a big PR they would probably not be in BB.

Last year it was Gauhar and this yr Gautam who's popularity is being attributed to PR by some ppl here. Like REALLY??? 😕...So Gautam ( a small time side actor), who was barely known before BB has such a huge PR team?? wonder what they were doing before BB coz they definitely did not market him b4 that 😛

and Gauhar who was MIA before BB (and out of work) apparently had a better PR team than the likes of Tanisha & Armaan who come from really rich, influential families,. and had a better PR than THE Salman Khan,so much so that ppl went against Salman and supported her...Salman NEEDS to change his PR asap then and hire Gauhar's PR 😛😉

Wonder where all these "Influential" PR teams of these contestants disappear after BB considering most of them become low key after the show?? 😛

And also WHY oh WHY will Endemol favor GG over others?? Like seriously WHY? Who is GG? How is he MORE powerful and influential than the others? If they want to make him the winner NOW its only becoz he is popular and they have seen the voting trends for these 4 mths. So its possible that at the later stages of the game they promote one contestant over the other based on that persons popularity. But to claim that they have been favoring someone right from the start and pushing that person to win is JUST BS logic. Like WHY will they do that?? Give me one some solid logic explaining that. Same with Gauhar last year. WHY would they want her to win over other, other than if she is genuinely more popular?

So seriously people need to stop just making allegations without any logic or sense JUST to prove that their reasons for disliking someone are right while the ppl who like that contestant are "fictional" PR agents .

Those people who make such claims are well aware of this fact but need some excuse to save their favorites face.

Lol Maybe...Or maybe some people just can't accept that what they think about a contestant is just their POV about that person and not the absolute fact...They don't want to believe that a contestant they dislike is popular and liked by so many.

So they would rather believe that they are the only "smart" ones to see the real personality of a contestant while the others who like that person are either paid PR or stupid, naive viewers who got influenced by "PR" or as they believe "biased editing". 😉😛

I know why they call PR or fixed winner. Its becoz no matter how much they dislike gautam or how much ever they support their favorite contestant , gautams popularity and votes in this season cannot b matched by other contestants. It must be frustrating for the fans now. So they say PR and fixed winner.
Also praneet and sonali were very popular in this forum if not on national TV. So the eliminated contestants fans would want to find a scapegoat for their favorites loss. So easy for them to say PR.

Yeah probably..But why disregard someone's popularity as "made up" to show that whoever you dislike is fake and unworthy?? I can never understand that.

Gauhar did win with a VAST majority over Tanisha but yes last season had many strong contestants so obviously people had different favourites.

This year most of them have had a "herd mentality" with no real Individuality and personality. So the few who have shown some personality are being liked. Add to that for the longest time most of them played like a group rather than an individual game so GG who was the only one in the initial weeks playing individually became popular.
