Exactly, BB is as much about game play as it is about stamina. OTT mein achaa karna is good but also you are in a compressed time frame whereas in BB you need to keep your energy up for months.
Look at most contestants by the end of month 2 they look wiped out. I remember the seasons which were extended like BB13/14/16 , contestants looked so fatigued. Plus the players in main BB are way more vicious and aggressive because they also come with the mindset that they have to last months to make it to finale.
