U will not get your questions answered here, because its forum and people can accuse anyone of anything. This PR thing is nothing compared what has been said on this forum. Right from Ebola to rape every dirty trick is used to bring down the popular contestant.

Has this post been drafted by PR? I don't think so, as it's not that professional one. 😆

But yes PRs do exist and in large numbers for some. PRs can work without much upfront money, it could be defendant on as long as they stay and they can pay from the money they will get from the show and prize money splits etc...so please don't bring that money issue here. If a show yields 1 crore, PR will not charge 2 crore or even whole money for that Jon...this is a very old logic. Doesn't work. How do you know which pr takes how much money? Why do you assume that they charge in billions? It's not bad to have a PR.😊

Yes it's bad to have it Fixed. PRs job is not only to write articles...but they work is every way possible. Like fake articles, fake awards, fake best 50s etc web hostings, Voting, Trending etc etc. The worst is, these PRs are pretty influential to make underhand deals to fix a winner. I'm sure they have financial transactions in the form of cash or arrange sponsors etc, since these PR people have good networks...so the worst and unacceptable part is, if they have been able to purchase the winner and fix the show.

All the signs and symptoms of the show, scream it's a fixed show, otherwise there is no reason for a small time side actor to get so much open favor & attention from the channel. Contestants didn't have equal fav like GG. For details, there is a topic with evidences, u may check. If u want I can provide the link.😆

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 GG is probably way ahead of his competition this yr. 😛

Exactly Praneet and Sonali were popular too..why not call their popularity "PR" then??

So if ppl liked Sonali and Praneet becoz of what they saw on TV then it is becoz they liked their personality. So now are we supposed to assume it is biased editing by the BB team becoz of which these ppl looked good and were liked, and its not their own personality which was appreciated??😉

Arre.. people saying this also know it's not completely fixed or all attributed just to a PR but how else can the popularity be justified? They need an excuse and hope that some of his fans will believe it's fixed and hence, won't vote for him so GG will lose. Warna unko bhi pata hai kiske fans zyaada hai.

For starters read my post.

No where did I say PR's don't exist. I infact said PR's do exist and most probably ALL contestants have one. NOBODY works for free. PR's have to be paid irrespective of the popularity or winning status of the contestant.

Hiring A PR agent may or may not cost a lot of money but hiring a PR agent who is as "influential" as people claim here does cost a lot of money. Its like buying a dress from a store vs buying one from a designer. The influential PR's with a very big network come at a cost.

And you do realize that its not just about paying the PR. You have to shell out money for all the other thinks u mentioned too. Its not easy to buy the production house, awards, media, websites, voters etc as you think. Like I said assuming all the contestants have a PR they would all be vying to get articles, trends, votes etc. So how does a website decide which article they want to post?? Obviously based on who pays them more to do it. 😛...So MONEY is a BIG factor in this industry believe it or not.

And coming to the show being fixed. Endemol and Colors are HUGE production houses. They make a LOT of money. So a production house which spends crores every week and make crores every week will need to be paid in crores for them to "fix" anything. Merely paying them a couple of lakhs will not make them do anything.

Also what does Endemol gain by fixing it in favor of GG over others?? in bollywood awards SRK agrees to host a show, dance etc and in return they give him an award. Now SRK is very popular and him performing in the show gives the makers TRPs so its mutual benefit. What is GG's usp??

We both agree GG was a nobody before the show . So why would they "fix" anything in his favour unless 1) he paid them a HUGE amount of money OR 2) He was so popular prior to the show that he could guarantee them high TRPs by being in the show. Since both of this can't be true its safe to say he can't have "fixed" it.

He is popular NOW after the show and hence they are keeping him there and very well might make him win ONLY becoz he IS POPULAR and is getting them votes and viewership. Simple as that.

In this industry its ALL ABOUT THE MONEY HONEY. 😛😉

PS: Just a serious question what makes u think GG's PR is more influential than say a Tanna's, Puneets or Upen's PR?? Where is that assumption coming from???

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". 😉😛


Exactly👏. Same views as dhongi baba prannet, who couldn't get over the popularity of Gauti, and resorted to his stupid "bandar in the zoo" analogy. The fact is, he could not accept his failure of winning over audience , and he said that the audience are too naive to understand the real personalities, and audience only like Gauti Bcoz he annoys people.

Gauhar's win was guaranteed because general public sympathized with her common man strategy & she faced everything alone. Her journey was tough & deserved the win, which is why last season was a success in terms of TRPs.

So this year they tried to ape the same formula by choosing a victim material aka Gulati & then spoon fed him the entire season. The problem was that their choice was an undeserving crybaby & the favoritism was not balanced by an equal opposition like last year's Tanisha Arman. It became too one-sided & that is why everyone lost interest & the TRPs suffered.

Gulati's PR here is a form of nepotism & blatant favoritism by the host & channel. Its not popularity, its herd mentality, he will be a nobody again soon after the show ends like every other winner. The channel's economy depends on that so they are supporting him, glorifying his phattoo antics. But the fact is overall this season was a colossal failure.
