The problem is that BB is becoming scripted like Splitsvilla. The doom started from S13 when jodi concept was introduced. The makers are trying HARDDD to recreate Sidnaaz, Sid-asim again because they got heck lot of sponsors even mid season because of the reach that season had. The season worked not because of jodi concept, but because of the personalities the contestants had. In bigboss, contestants bring out each other's personalities, which isn't happening this season. The contestants knowing each other from outside ruins the essence of BB altogether. Plus, it's all PR generated and the Bahus have MG contract so they ain't going anywhere. I don't feel a connect to anyone this season. I remember connecting with Shilpa Shinde, Shehnaaz, Asim, Sidharth, Gautam, Manveer etc. The set of people they're bringing up have no compatibility. BB had ruined itself after S13. The people they're bringing are either too young to have solid persona- Sumbul, Stan, Abdu or are new gen actors with 1-2 shows- Ankit, Priyanka, Nimrit etc. I remember BB used to cast contestants according to the interests they had. Shukla was into sports, Asim was a boxer plus gym addict plus rapper, Shehnaaz was a loud mouth with controversies, Mahira,Madhurima had anger issues. BB is a hub of controversial people, but people this season are either just starting their careers, or are old actors who were once known but were never popular. Rashmi Desai was always a bigger face than Tina Datta. Hina Khan & Shilpa were top actresses of TV world. Bias is not the issue. The problem is when anyone can make out that show is scripted. Nearly every contestant this season has agreed to the fact that BB is unfair and is playing smartly. Tina, Priyanka, Shiv, Nimrit were given pep talks, which is unfair. Sumbul's dad intervened which was probably channels strategy for drama and it was unfair. The pizza party was unfair. The trp is all time high, but the only contestant with legit social media hype is Stan. The only contestant benefitting from the show is Stan. I remember Asim, Shehnaaz, Sid had people going gaga over them. Tiktok, instagram was filled with these people. PR generated social media trends can't buy you real fan love. No one is going crazy after Tina or Priyankit. Stan is another case tho.
