Trying to Understand the GG wave. - Page 2

BB8 is ending. After watching the show religiously for almost 5 months, I tried to analyze the entire season.

The whole BB8 season was all about Gautam Gulati. People called contestants Double dholkis if they said something against GG. If they nominate him they have become backstabbers.

Every constant was either appreciated or condemned only with respect to GG.

Whetheryou belong to GG club or Anti-GG club, it didnt make any difference when it came to voting. Appreciationdoesn'tmake somebody a winner only voting does, which was always for GG. (for eg GG fans would have never voted for Pritam even if always supported GG. right?) I think Pritam realized this in the half way, so, he tried to be himself.

Whats special about GG? why such a big wave in his favor?

Is it becoz he is a good looking guy? But there were some really good looking guys in previous seasons as well, but they didnt win.

He hasn't done anything sodifferentand great in the show to get so much fan base. ..!!!

He started the show with gaali controversy, yet people pardoned him when he cried andapologized. Thats the starting point to GG wave. Karishma triggered GG Tsunami in a way.

He never took stand for anybody or anything, but nobodyconsiders it important. Same GG fans blamed other HMs if they failed to take stand for GG.

He spoke cheaply about almost every femaleparticipant in the house, but all females fans were absolutely okay with that. When he was asked about his comments he always lied , and never reallyapologized anybody.

He passed personal and dirty comments almost about everybody, but when others said anything which is remotely personal, fans didnt show them any mercy on them.

He clearly patted Sambhava's back for throwing the sandal, yet his fans found no fault in this. He changed sides so many times but he never was Double Dholki.

How can we forget how immediately he changed his tune, called Diandra just a friend after the party. No, he is still not a Double Dholki.

He is never cheap even considering lotion leelas.

Its beyond myunderstanding, how his fans never found anything wrong with what GG did or said.

I feel there are 3 major factors, which helped him to gain so much popularity.

1. He is good looking (not such an imp factor though)

2. He was alomst always shirtless, showing his abs.

3. The most IMPORTANT factor is He always played a Victim card, always tried to gain sympathy, cried , spoke to cameras. This is really a deadly combination. Considering all the female contestants who won in previous seasons , like, Juhi, Gauhar or swetha, they were always abala naaris. Now GG is a deadly combination of both looks and Abala naari syndrome! that has made himirresistible and helped himearn so many fans...which created a huge GG wave.

My onlyfavorites this season are 1st Praneet and next Sonali, in the order of preference. But i knew very well from the beginning that they dont have any chance to win, becoz they are not fake or played politics. In a way i was happy and relieved when Praneet got voted out. I felt as if he was rescued.

All I would want to say is, any other contestant never had any chance of winning BB8.. they can never be like GG.

There ends the another season of BB, which left me wondering, is the show worth my time? or anybody's time? I am feeling somewhatembarrassed of myself for watching it so religiously.

<font color="#ff0000">Disclaimer :GG fans, the show is done, you have your fav constant as winner, whatever i say or write doesnt change anything any more. so please take it easy even if you dont like this topic Thank you all.</font>

These same thoughts have been on my mind too. I still don't understand what is it about GG people love so much? Is it just good looks and abs? If that's the case then I feel pity. If not looks then what is it about his personality? Please tell me because I can't see it. I was a GG supporter in the beginning of the season after the whole situation with KT but after that I found no other reason to remain a fan. I guess this will stay a mystery to me forever and I'm glad I'm not the only one lol.

Well I dont agree with you here...but I will choose to ignore this thread now.

TM great post. You nailed it. He has won and its very inspirational story of below average man with below average looks and absolutely no talent can also reach the top if he has senseless backing in numbers.

This guy wants people to revel in medicrity when he said all cant be superstars. There are ordinary people too. Gyaan from gullu baba.👏

I agree all contestants said he should win but nobody said he deserves to win.

This question did strike to me.

I feel gautam best advantage when initially he got isolated and victimised, that's the time people fell for him, they started loving him, for them he always remained a victim. He also played the victim card as he knew audience loves him.People always started supporting him irrespective of understanding others Point of view. BB cashed on his image by introducing tasks like gautam city.

yeh! season ka analysis hai ya Anti-Gautam hone ki feelings hain! there is no fact!

nice post..
GG got sympathy deffo whn all cornered him in d house (thanks to other HMs stupidness) n thn d way P3 supported him.
He too disrespected women,he too was a double dholki many times,he too never took a stand..
but hms repeatedly nominating him for like 7-8 weeks developed his vote bank n so he won.
