a tv exe who was known to me used to laugh when some common friends discussed reality shows.

in music and dance competitions many of them highlight their poverty, yes they are poor but channels use struggles as their trump card.

i think rangu bhai's executives hand over a skeleton script with pointers as to how to go about. This is absolutely needed bcos some participants do not know head nor tail of BB. For the likes of Bahu maybe visual presentations are given till they get the hang of it. There is also a set designer team working full time for tasks, who prints task sheets and gets them in the sitting area. No magic wand unfortunately

To my knowledge the primary contestants know who is on board. There were articles floating about Arhaan and Himanshi so their entry is predetermined. However surprised that Aarti is openly talking about Yuvika.

it is scripted but limited to the contestants ability to play. i am sure there is no bound script in place

I don't think it is widely scripted but specifically scripted that is some contestants may be given a brief or when they reenter as wild cards or when they come in as wild cards to push a certain narrative or behave in a particular manner. They can't risk anyone outing them that its a fully scripted show. That being said contestants may have a rough idea of who may be brought as WC and theme of show even before show begins.

So, anyone else noticed that during Aarti's discussion regarding Vishal she mentioned that it was ordy predecided he was entering the show? The mutual friend (Yuvika) suggested Vishal and Aarti play together inside. So basically his wildcard entry wasn't such a big surprise. He couldn't enter the show cause NB was being telecast simultaneously on another channel? (my assumption)

It's these little things that show that BB is not at all as organic as they want the viewers to believe. There's very little of reality and much more of whatever narrative they choose to portray.

Himanshi's entry and Sana's premonition before it was another instance.

Sana-Sid ka music ke saath wale promos started after SidNaaz trended.

Any other instances felt like scripted shittee to you? Add on.

Arhaan, himanshi, vishal & khesari are pre decided WCs, scripted BB. Phle bhi thaa but itna openly nhi tha. y to much ho rha hai.

Interesting. I didn't know this. I assumed that first set is sent in. And based on how they're doing, the standbys are sent in.

It's like selecting actors as per script.

It's not only who is entering and not. But sometimes specific terms that are floating on social media being used by the contestants. And like specific issues that they didn't think of initially being brought in as issues later.

Like obviously this has happened before. But this season they're not making an effort to hide it.

Yeah. Makes sense. They have a story and they need people who can stick to it without going offtrack completely. Like to a certain extent they'll allow flexibility. But if say something isn't generating enough buzz, they'll immediately throw in another to make sure that there's a Plan B.
