So I've been watching BB8 pretty ardently and have been a silent reader till now. I've been reading a lot of topics on peoples views on the HM's and wanted to give my 2 cents on what I think about the current equations in the house and the HMs.
Lets start with the so called P3G group which is less of a gp and more of a set of ppl with no other gp.
Puneet: The real game player in the house. Like a lot of ppl are pointing out he is currently coming accross like a Mafia running his business from the jail. Super manipulative and vindictive. Very smart and is definately taking advantage of his age/experience/salman's friend status which makes people "respect" him and not oppose him much. Is totally manipulating and taking advantage of Gautam's blind devotion to him. Definitely a dirty player but you do need people like him in the game to create that masala. Among the P3G gp I think he likes Pritam and then maybe Praneet. IMHO I dont think the guy realy likes Gautam. I've seen him bitch abt Gautam behind
his back pretty often. It did not take him a sec to backstab GG during the captainship task. Even the way he was aggressive with GG during the Mithai task kinda is a proof of wat he really feels abt him. Also unlike Pritam n Praneet I have not seen Puneet really speak up for GG like ever. The only times I've seen him speak up/support GG is when he has some personal ulterior motive behind it.(eg make GG captain to trouble BG) His "friendship" with GG is ONLY becoz of GG's popularity outside and his undying devotion to Punit. The day GG is called a villain in WKW or he speaks up against Punit he will be 1st one to kick GG and throw him out of "gang".
Pritam: Currently my favorite player who right now has the strongest chance of winning this season. Great sense of humour. VERY smart and knows exactly what to say and when. Most of the times does not mind voicing his opinion but without creating a scene. He is definitely manipulative too and is keeping everyone in his good books. Has not let the praise get to his head YET. He hides his game plan behind humour/sarcasm/funny comments so people don't really get offended by him. He is playing this game how it should be played ie SMARTLY. He is entertaining without being contreversial. He seems to have a good equation with almost everyone in the house.He seems to respect Puneet and Praneet a lot and is def close to both of them. I honestly think among P3 he is only one who has some affection for Gautam. He is patient and compassionate with him. He knows ppl appreciated his support for GG and he is continuing that. Also i think he gets GG the most among the others in the house probably becoz he has spent a lot of time with him. Having said that I still don't think Gautam features in Pritam's favourite ppl in the house list. I wont be surprised if Upen n Arya feature higher than GG in pritam's list. Just like puneet he does not hesitate to backstab/diss Gautam behind his back, which shows how sincere
his friendship with GG really is. Again his support of GG is not how I measure his character so I still think he is the best player out there.
Praneet: One word INSECURE. He knows he's not as strong a player as the rest of P2G. Neither does he have humour, sympathy or connections to keep him in the game. He wants to remain in everyone's good books to avoid nominations coz he knows that once he gets nominated with strong players he can very easily get kicked out. He wants to potray a truthful, honest, righteous image and strives to do that. Not really entertaining at all. His new strategy seems to be to fight (mostly with gautam) to avoid eviction. His only genuine friendship seems to be pritam, sonali and maybe puneet to some extent. With the rest of them his relation is on and off based on the task, wkw, game etc. His "frienship" with GG is definitely for the sake of the group. His private talks with Sonali in the uncensored video shows that he deep down does think GG is not a bad guy.
But he has the least patience with GG among the P3G gp and now seems like he is fed up of him. His constant fights with Gautam look like his plan to stay in the game coz GG is an easy target to
to pick a fight with and not come across as a villain atleast in front of the HMs. He is not a bad player but a boring one.
Gautam: The most misundertood guy in the house. Most of the HMs have a blinder when dealing with him. Nautanki, footage artist, game player etc but entertaining. He's not a bad guy at heart.The fact that he chose not to encourage Sonali's "love" angle coz he was not interested in her and did not want her to get attached to him and hence get hurt shows that he has his heart in the right place.
His antics can be annoying to the HMs and I can understand them losing their temper with him but this blind hatred for him that some of them have I just cant digest. He is definitely immature and too easily manipulated by Puneet who he blindly trusts (Wats with that BTW!!) and thats going to be his downfall. I do feel bad for him becoz NO ONE in the house is sincere with him in their friendship and he has been repeatedly backstabbed by his so called "friends". Since he has no choice he has to keep going back to those same "friends". I think he is really egoistic which is why he does not take any advice well, He is in it to play the game and win. All the praise has gone to his head a bit and made him a little overconfident but I also see him taking Salman's advice seriously and toning down his so called "Pcycho" behaviour which is a good thing. I am sure he knows that NO ONE actually supports him in the house and hense his defensive/rebellious attitute with even his friends and I don't blame him for that. Anyone would get that way if ur cornered and advised ALL the time. As a viewer who gets to see the game as a whole I definately feel that he is one of the better people in the house. He has been loyal to his friends and has never done anything to harm his enemies behind their back. If he dislikes you and plans to screw you over he tells you that to your face and then screws you. I would rather have someone like him near me than have someone like upen or puneet who will be sweet to you on ur face but screw you once you turn you back to them.
He genuinely feels for Puneet and Pritam IMHO. With praneet again i still think their equation currently is just for the game and not genuine friendship. I really think he has become an easy target for the rest of them to blame and bitch abt in the house and they do that without fail almost everytime. His popularity outside is definitely getting to the HMs inside. Its surprising how no one seems to forgive him for anything he does and he's branded as negative while everyone else gets forgiven. I think jealousy def has a big part to play in this treatment that he gets in the house. So Karishma can act like a selfish bitch multiple times, upen can plan and plot and be partial to his friends as a captain, puneet can bitch till the end of time, puneet can be violent, diandra can fight, bitch, abuse, curse, praneet can scream his lungs out, etc and they can all be forgiven by their "friends" and the other HMs but when Gautam does any of this he has to be ostracized, and avoided and cursed and called negative not only by his enemies but also by his so called friends. WOW!! talk abt double standards. I like gautam coz he is entertaining and I do sympathize with him for HOW MUCH he is misunderstood. Not that he is without his faults but is he the worst player out there? definitely NOT.
Phew thats long...I'll continue with the rest of the HMs below:
