U made Mandy a queen can't blame u
U r her fan u will only see good things about her
Lastly I don't agree 😃


Well yes, its a Mandy centric post because I'm discussing here Mandy's impact on other contestants games. And no, I'm not trying to make her queen here, though I did it in some other posts but not in this one. Here I discussed just one aspect of her personality that she let the other person play their game. And I never said that if its a good aspect but yes, its good for the other person. Just like when Priya never let other person talk then it works for her so we can't say that its something bad. Its good for her and bad for the other person.

Interesting post. Although, I'm not quite sure if I agree with your assertion that Mandana never tried dominating the personality of others. I actually feel it was the other way around -- the other HMs never really got dominated by her? I think she did try to be dominating and bossy, but the other HMs just got annoyed by her rather than listening to her and let her dominate. In order to be dominated, you have to concede.

Using the Priya-Rishabh-Mandy example you gave. The reason Rishabh often seemed to be dominated by Priya, is because he respected her and did look up to her. He would genuinely listen to her and it's obvious that even he realized just how smart Priya is. He let himself be dominated by her. Compare Priya and the other HMs. They weren't dominated by her. When it came to Mandy, I don't think Rishabh looked up to her or appreciated her smarts or anything that much. I think he enjoyed her company but he also saw her as a victim. Hence he wasn't dominated by her, he didn't see her as someone to look up to.

Again, I'm not saying that he didn't respected Mandana, I think he definitely did. But in order to be dominated by someone, you have to believe in the other person's dominance, you have to concede.

Kishwar's a good example. She was completely dominating. But that's cause the other HMs let her to be and saw her as dominating. They knew she was smart and that she was someone worth conceding too.

I partly agree with all your points, especially about Rish and Kish. But the way I see it is that both Kish and Priya are dominating personalities. Plus they are the ones who likes to be with people and lead those people. In comparison, Mandy is a loner and when you're a loner then in order to maintain your privacy and solitude you don't welcome people that much because you're not a people person. That's why I think Mandy is bossy only when some thing impacted her but otherwise she is detached and never try to jump in other people's matters or try to dominate them. Its her personality, just way its Kish's and Priya's personalities. Plus another factor is language barrier and your tone as well. Mandy's voice and way of talking as comparison to Kish or Priya is not loud and sharp at all. So even when she is telling you to do something its doesn't sound like a command. I've seen uncensored videos of Murder Mystery Task and she helped Rish a lot but the way she was doing it was like a friend is giving some suggestion to a friend. In contrast Priya when even said her famous "Teen Second Lage Mujhe" then we can feel a lot of authority and loudness in those four words. Actually its just the way you say something. If I'm asking you that we should make rice instead of chapati today then my way of saying those words make the difference that if I'm saying it as a command, a suggestion or a question. And that's what make a person look like as a dominating, submissive or an equal personality.
