Until now, Bigg Boss OTT was all about connections and in all honesty, it was doing more damage than good. There were double eliminations because the contestants had to leave the house as pairs. It meant that a gharwala could be out of the game, despite being a strong contender, if their partners were not equally strong. We saw something similar happen with Ridhima Pandit and Karan Nath. While the former was a tough player, her partner was quite laid back. As a result, they both were evicted in the second week itself.
Apart from eliminations, these connections even restricted the housemates from taking individual decisions. Instead of forming an alliance with Nishant Bhat and Divya Agarwal, Raqesh Bapat was often seen maintaining distance from them because of Shamita Shetty. Not to forget, the Ragini MMS 3 actress couldn’t perform any task because she had no connection in the house. TBH, the connections were making the gharwalas‘ game weaker and hiding their true personalities. Well, all of that changes now!
That’s right, Bigg Boss has dropped a major twist bomb on all the contestants and broken their connections entirely. Now, they have to play their games individually.
In the promo, we can hear BB saying that now the gharwalas are free from all the ties for the next two weeks. He says, “Ab ye saare aapsi connections abhi se khatm kiye ja rahe hai.” Wow, it all looks quite dramatic TBH.
Three people in the house seem quite happy with the move. Pratik can be heard saying, “Kisi ki azaadi, kisi ki barbaadi.” In the next shot, Nishant says, “Ab pata chalega asli connection,” while pointing at his friendship with the former. Divya too looks elated with the twist because now she does not have any disadvantage in the game.
If you are watching the show live 24*7 (like us), then you’d know that the twist has changed the entire power dynamics in the house already. The gharwalas are forming new alliances without any apprehensions and nominating their competitors sans any restriction.
Right now, we’re quite curious to find out if the new twist will affect the next elimination round as well.
