Hello Oyster,
Like yourself, this is the first time watching BB. Like yourself, there are hundreds of similar posts, though not as much detailed, on the same topic on this and other public forums. However, in the society that we live in (eastern or western), power and connections always work. Salman Khan Aamir Khan, Abhishek Bachchan and others would be nobody if they were not born in privileged families with connections. On the other hand, people like SRK, Aishwarya, Priyanka Chopra are first generation achievers and their next generation would be like Salman, Arman, etc. For this privileged class, their life is different - getting up at 2pm and servants to take care of their needs. All this gives them a different perspective and they behave in the manner they do. There are always exceptions such as Aamir, but very rare. And the same principles apply in western world also - generation of Bush, Clinton, etc.
So the point is that a normal person has to wake up and fight for his/her right in a manner that helps others in the society. This show is perfect example of the haves and haves not. The haves think that the have nots are their servants and should serve them as they are used. If not, they behave violently and then the previlaged take side of their own. The only difference now is that Indian media is becoming like western media where everything is reported. And therefore the normal has a chance of his voice heard.
All the negative publicity - do you think that either Salman or BB expected. Not really. Because these privileged live in a different environment where they are always right. The only difference if that the normal person has venues to express their views and outnumber these privileged ones. So sooner or later, everyone would wake up until everyone feels OK and decisions are acceptable. Note that corruption will always be in all societies. Therefore, there is always a chance for a society which is ready to fight for its right.
Cheers.😃
