Assuming we will have 5 finalists this year, like in most seasons, here is who I feel are most likely top 5. A couple of things before that:
- I expect to see 2 finalists from each group and 1 floater.
- I don’t think we will have any ‘forced’ finalists like last year. They usually do that in flop seasons.
So going by that combination, 1 + 2 + 2 here are my predictions:
1) The non-group finalist is an easy guess. Farrhana Bhatt. She has a pretty strong fanbase and has been the getting the most screen time over the past 3-4 weeks. Salman’s attitude towards has also changed which means BB is serious about pushing her. She has been the surprise package this year and has delivered above expectations. So a sure-shot finalist and maybe even top 3.
2) The Amaal group is also easy. I doubt BB will take Neelam to the finale and she is most likely being kept to be the ‘kingslayer’ i.e., use her community fanbase to evict strong contenders if needed. She will be discarded later, perhaps two weeks before the finale. Shehbaaz is no longer a priority. Salman exposes him every week, expect him to be evicted in 2-3 weeks. So that leaves us with Tanya and Amaal as two finalists from this group. They have been among the pillars of this season and have strong following amongst TV audiences.
3) The other group is the more tricky one. You have three people who are doing less but have community/profession votes (Mridul, Pranit, GK), and two people who have a strong story going on but becoming less and less important (Ashnoor, Bajaj). So who goes ahead?
- The way Salman schools Mridul every week its clear they are setting the stage for his eviction most likely via internal voting. Especially this WKV where Salman, on multiple occasions, mentioned Mridul’s vote bank. Its clear they want the housemates to feel threatened by him.
- Similarly, the way GK is being pushed in WKV episodes, he is definitely making it to the finale. And he has the votebank to back it up. He is also slowly but steadily starting to play so that’s always a plus!
- Ashnoor lags all the other 4 in terms of votes so can safely say she won’t make it through. He arc is also very Bajaj dependent.
- That leaves us with Pranit and Bajaj. Bajaj absolutely ruled in the first 6 weeks. He was everywhere. He was the unanimous social media favorite. However, the past couple of weeks haven’t been too kind to him. He is barely getting any meaningful footage and the social media support is dwindling. Can say he is trending downwards.
- Pranit on the other hand is trending upwards! Not only is he getting his own 15min segment every week, his ss has gone up massively in the past couple of weeks. Salman’s attitude towards him has also changed, if you notice Salman always asks for his views on important matters. And anyway support tou hai hi iska.
- So between Bajaj and Pranit I see Pranit making it to the top 5, Bajaj getting evicted in the last week!
So my top 5 are:
GK, Farrhana, Amaa, Tanya, Pranit.
Thoughts?
