Well, this is gonna be a long post 😆 I love character analysis so here goes, keeping my dislike aside of the entire showmance BS, I'll just speak on Teja as a contestant and person in the BB house:
I might be in the minority here, I don't think there is even 1% in this minority considering the kind of stuff I have read on different platforms regarding her but - I don't find Teja fake. This is who she is. 😆
She exaggerates stuff to make herself look good and she is in need of constant self validation but then again, who doesn't in that house? 😆
Plus, It's not at all possible for her to be so smart enough to "trap" men like KK/Vishal then fake being so dumb. It's either she is too smart for the game or too dumb because unlike KK or Shamita, she is one of the people who needs this win because she doesn't have anything else going on in her career ATM.
From what I observed via episode and LF, it is in line with your analysis of her. I had recently seen a personal conversation between Nish, Simba and T about their lives outside which gives me a bit more clarity regarding what kind of people they are:
Nishant - He spoke about how he had to struggle and survive a lot of situations to come to this point, he knows his position is shaky in that house and there is no guarantee that he won't get eliminated if he is a Non VIP thus the desperation to stay in. It is his inherent nature to save himself first in any situation. His game is also in line with this - he ensures that no matter what the circumstances he escapes it scott free baki koi nikle ya na nikle and at the same time, he will not ruin his relationship with them because he knows he might need them later on.
He is also insecure of KK, kahi na kahi because he just second to Jay in the constant need to discuss KK with everyone. Wo shayad unke personal equation ke basis pe hoga phele wala warna I don't know why the obsession with KK.
Teja - She has always been the popular girl, the one everyone liked and probably been very pampered by family, friends and costars alike. This is where all her attitude stems from - the constant need to be assured that she is well-liked, the satisfaction at knowing she is and the over confidence that she knows best.
She just cannot wrap her mind around the fact that anyone could dislike her, I have seen it so many times whenever someone is sorting out issues with her post a fight, she is like why do you dislike me? Maine kya kiya aise? 😆
During the initial days, all these people who are against her now could not get enough of her - Nishant who prioritized her over KK and kept hanging around her constantly, Vishal who admitted to liking her and kept making moves, Jay who considered her a priority over Vishal, Pratik at one point called her his sister and still does, Umar also used to be hanging around her quite a bit, etc.
Why do they all dislike her now? Maybe, it's her tone but then again, she has always been this way or maybe, it's the fact she chose KK and she has changed.
And, she doesn't have a clue about this 😆 She is so in her own world with KK she thinks that everything is fine with all these people.
Her game is just to be liked by people. She cannot hold grudges at all until and unless the person shouts at her face that they don't want her kinda like how Donal had with "I can never trust you! Main kabhi nahi aungi apke paas" or Pratik telling her off during WKW for coming back after every fight.
She thinks that once they get out of this house, everyone will be fine and meet up with each other happily (this has been mentioned so many times by her now, she has planned meet ups with everyone except Shamita, Pratik and Neha) but I wonder if she will want to once she actually goes through what has been said about her 😆
If she still does then she has to be the dumbest of the lot for me.
But, there is one thing I have noticed about her - she does take feedback and change if given via a trustworthy medium for her like Salman bhai ho ya uske dost or caller of the week. She won't listen to it from people who fight with her 😆
Which is why I think she can have a bit of hope if she gets the proper feedback because let's be honest - Shamita, Jay, KK - in sab ko feedback mil mil ke they have changed their game or in S and J's case ruined it further.
KK isn't helping her much by not pointing out the obvious facts and always molly coddling her, he is the only one whose advice she would take seriously because the rest obviously won't give her proper feedback because they don't care.
So, all in all, she isn't the worst of the lot in that house. She is irritating AF, lacks self awareness and I personally wouldn't wanna be friends with a 29 year old woman who has this constant need for validation but compared to the rest, she comes off better as a person for me.
If you look at the rest and the kind of statements + actions displayed by them, Teja has been okay other than one instance where she supported KK for his chokeslam.
Her game is down in the dumps if she does not get proper feedback soon or if she does not get out of this showmance angle because it's obvious that the makers have decided to keep her as a love angle now.
She did not take their bait to start a catfight with either Shammo nor Neha so her game is pretty much done.
