Bigg Boss OTT is different from the previous seasons of the show for several reasons. For starters, it’s streaming only on the OTT platform, Voot and that too 24*7. Also, Karan Johar is hosting the show instead of Salman Khan and will be doing so for the next four weeks. But, despite the twists, some things are still the same. Need a hint? Hear this out—”I hardly know anyone personally here. I don’t have a reason to be biased.” Did these lines ring a bell? They must have because we have heard them on every BB season. At first, it was just Salman making these claims, but now, KJo has joined the club too.
Well, you do know what they say, right? There’s no smoke without fire. These hosts have defended themselves because their fans have called them out for having favourites in the house. And, while they deny being biased, public sab jaanti hai.
Over the years, viewers have noticed Salman being extra kind towards certain gharwalas in the house while treating others neutrally. Interestingly enough, KJo is now doing the same. Intrigued? Read on to know who we are talking about.
7 Bigg Boss Contestants Who Were Hosts’ Favourites
These seven gharwalas could have burned down the entire BB house, but chances are that the hosts would have turned a blind eye on them. Read on to find out who they are.
Shamita Shetty (Season 15)
Oh Karan, we wish you’re a little discreet while showing your support for Shamita Shetty on every Sunday Ka Vaar episode. Honestly, when the makers said that everything about this season was going to be OTT, we thought they were talking about the game. But, probably they meant the OTT cringe we feel when KJo asks for the actress’s opinions on every matter and showers her with sweet endearments. All of that, while treating the remaining gharwalas like some serious offenders. And, what is it with him completing Shamita’s statements like BFFs? Jeez, calm down, will ya?
Bani J (Season 10)
In season 10, every Weekend Ka Vaar episode started with Salman complimenting Bani J and ended with him ignoring all the wrong things she did throughout the week. She could lie blatantly, abuse, even talk rudely to the host himself, but the Sultan actor conveniently ignored all of it. Reason? Nothing. Absolutely, nothing!
Rakhi Sawant (Season 14)
From creating ‘I Hate Rubina Club’ to supporting Rakhi Sawant like she was a flawless angel, bhai did it all and made little to no efforts to hide it. He even justified when the actress pulled Abhinav Shukla’s short’s strings and Rahul Mahajan’s towel. Honestly, we understand favouritism, but even with his standards ye thoda zyada ho gaya.
Tanishaa Mukerji (Season 7)
Would you believe us if we told you that there was a time when Salman was a neutral host? Yes, it’s true. Until season 6, he used to refrain from giving his opinions and being the judge and jury of the show. But, in season 7, he decided to be the executioner as well and the reason was obvious—Tanishaa Mukerji. Kajol’s sister was supported by the host despite the mistakes she made. On the other hand, all hell used to break loose whenever Kushal Tandon as much as pointed a finger towards her.
Shilpa Shinde (Season 11)
Not only her mistakes were ignored, but she was also appreciated for all the hard work she did in the kitchen. Honestly, Shilpa Shinde was not just Salman’s favourite, but also of the makers. They legit made an entire video clip to show how many rotis the actress had made in the house. TBH, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a reality show or daily soap because makers love to promote an image of a docile bahu.
Sidharth Shukla
His slangs? Ignored. His disrespect for the house rules? Ignored. His aggression towards Asim Riaz, Rashami Desai, Arhaan Khan and Mahira Sharma? Ignored. In fact, as per the host, other housemates should have maintained a distance from Sidharth Shukla because, well, he’s strong. Wow. Just, wow!
S. Sreesanth
He spat on other contestants. Do we need to say more? We don’t and the host didn’t either. He ignored the cricketer’s offensive acts because apparently, he was ‘triggered’ all the time.
Well, we do hope that KJo and Salman let go of their biases this season ‘cuz honestly, it does more harm than good to their favourite contestant’s image. Let them fight their own battle, guys.
