They have all the housemates on their side. In the virus/science task, both came out at top due to their manipulations.
Apoorva getting a haircut wasn't nearly as dangerous as Pratyusha getting electric shocks or as gross as Ratan lying down in cow dung. Yet, the hullabaloo created by his nautanki wife earned him praise for it. Meanwhile Ratan, Pratryusha, and Andy's efforts weren't even ACKNOWLEDGED let alone recognized. I am not even a super fan of any of these house members but they deserved credit where it was due.
And if Apoorva was so great for getting his hair cut then Sangram was equally as great. Why wasn't he mentioned at all? In my honest opinion, it was Shilpa's dramebaazi that led to Apoorva being chosen as the "best performer" in this entire task.
Furthermore, I am still at a loss about how Shilpa was the best performer on the Jannat side. Seriously, the jahannum team worked so hard to get those luxury bugdet points. But 1000 points out of the total went to garbage due to Shilpa's unnecessary drama. And the 1000 points that were left, only these two (husband/wife) got to spend since they were chosen as the "best performers". The worst thing is that NOBODY blinked an eye or even realized this.
So yeah, everyone worked hard on this task and really gave their best. However, these two came out on top and got to make the decision on how the luxury budget will be spent even if it was earned by everyone together.
I really hope the housemates realize their game and give them tough competition.
