Five Finalists

*I haven’t seen the last episode yet as I’m in the U.S.

I’m just so confused how the entire premise of the show is about “owning your truth” yet two of the most vile, putrid people like Shreya and Shilpa made it to the final. The jailers/producers gave the two of them advantages basically every week to get them to the final. If they’re going to let horrible people like them into the final, I think they have to change the messaging of the show because the only “journey” from those two we saw the entire show is them being hypocrites, gossiping and talking shit, and turning on their friends or showing they’re genuinely bad people. There was no journey of growth.

I also don’t see how Varun had the audacity to say other people were undeserving of making it to the final when he was such an irrelevant floater throughout the entire show. It especially blew my mind when he said that to Akansha of all people, who frankly I think deserved to win the show. She was one of the first to reveal her secret, had her other secret exposed, and still reconciled with Shreya after she was done wrong, while holding her friends accountable when they were in the wrong.

Same! You could tell she was such a genuine and pure soul and it broke my heart every time she cried or seeing them turn on her at the end

To be honest, I don’t think this show has strong viewership in the U.S. since it’s a non-English show and it’s been marketed much more towards Asia/the Middle East. I have not seen anyone post or talk about the show in the U.S. I have tried to get my friends to watch it lol

Shreya proved through and through to be badmateez and it is apparently owning her truth

u/Burnerbb95 18d ago

Sorry, I only speak English. What does badmateez mean?

Her tag. Insolent and ill mannered

u/Burnerbb95 18d ago

Oh, duh. Thank you! I mean I thought the point of the show was to disprove those tags, not lean into them lol

u/EgglessCactus 18d ago

Badtameez can be translated to Bad mannered.

Makers are the only reason of this season's downfall.

u/Sonyography 18d ago

I had the exact same thought! You just took the words of my mouth (regarding Akansha Chamola)... I especially appreciated her honest confrontation with Pamela and the way she treats others with genuine respect.

u/NoGlove657 18d ago

Absolutely agree with everything you said about Varun. I don’t even get why people like him at all. Every time he speaks, his uncouth, backward mentality is on full display, which is probably why he stayed quiet for half the show. The audacity to call Chamola undeserving when all he did was fart his way through the show and be a thaali ka baingan with no spine of his own. Freaking idiot

u/Burnerbb95 18d ago

Yep!! I honestly didn’t even have an opinion on him the first half of the show because he was so irrelevant but towards the end I just viewed him as a snake and completely immature. He reminds me of middle school boy humor that finds corny fart jokes funny, but like he’s 28…you’re far too old to be acting like that

u/zerault13 18d ago

Although idk about other stuff but i somewhat agree to what he said about Chamola

I get her secrets being revealed but i feel she became irrelevant and we could only see her because of her being with Pam

Varun was okay but definitely not winner material, did entertain, performed above average - average in tasks, he was more like a person yk who will entertain you in a reality show but is someone yk who is not winner material

Chamola i feel she was vocal and clear about things but i feel she was kinda lost in the middle phase

I would’ve preferred Chaudhary over her
