Ok..now I finally finished watching the entire episode ...*phew*
1) I feel Shiv got bashed for a wrong reason and this entire thing of him ''conspiring'' with his mandali to instigate Archana to get her evicted was exaggerated to justify the channel's decision to bring her back.. Some one who has being provoking the entire house, including the ones who are celebrating her return, without any consideration of what might trigger the other person, doesn't deserve any consideration based on empathy towards whatever points trigger her.. she has raised ''bahar ke mudde'' as well.. religion,caste, professional, personal assaults on looks, character, body shaming, xenophobia I can go and on-we have seen worse from her and repeatedly and this eviction was after prior warnings..
BUT I am glad he got this bashing nonetheless.. because he was getting way too arrogant, complacent and air-headed..a bully not fun to watch.. This was needed for him to stop, take a few steps back and introspect..
Today, I don't think he had a choice but to backdown.. Salman was not going to see him any other way..
This could either be a blessing in disguise for him..he could either res-strategize and come out stronger and show if he has what it takes..or he can disappear in the shadows and then only have himself to blame..
2) I was under the impression that people who supported him that day ..backed out today.. but no... I think everyone stuck to their stand except Sumbul..Even the ones I least expected to.. Tina and Sajid.. Supremo Stan also stuck to his initial stand🤪
3) I was also assuming because of the updates I read this morning that Ankit owned Sajid..At the risk of being judged for applauding Sajjo on this, I will say I don't think so.. When he said even Shiv who took the decision to evict her, is now supporting her comeback..why are you so upset? Sajid was bang on with his reply '' because I am member of this house too'' I think he made some valid, logical points but got shouted down by Jagat mata..
Long story short, it was an open and shut case for Salman, the judge and jury... there was no room for any discussion or debate.. the verdict was already decided..so what was even the point of asking for reasons and justifications.. they had already decided to bring Archana back for whatever reason.. now they were not gonna ask Shiv to forgive her and let her in..because that would look like channel openly favoring a contestant..plus if he had to forgive her he would've done it that day when he was asked to take the decision.. so there was no other way but to shift the blame on him.. shift the accusation from ''violence'' to ''provocation based on external matters that led to violence''
