Yogesh was the most famous contestant of Roadies Double Cross, people rooted for him and called him the deserving winner.

Akansha got a huge fan following because people felt bad for her and liked how she had self respect.

Even I liked her but after the finale and whatever happened during the airing of the show gave me an ick.

Both of them had good reputations, obviously there were people who disliked them but the admiration was so much more.

But now and even in the coming years their shipping fandom would eventually grow out of this phase and move on in their lives but this "Cheater" or "Side Chick" reputation will follow them everywhere.

Mujhe smjh nhi aata ki ye zabardasti inn dono ko couple kyu bna rhe h 😭 like they have no romantic chemistry or anything. And about the flirting, if you've seen live feed, Gullu literally flirts with every other girl, toh inn dono ko itna promote kyu kar rhe h?? Ya toh Kaira (Gullu's Partner in Splitsvilla / Roumred Ex Girlfriend) ko wildcard leke aa rhe h ya the makers want us to hate them.

Not in gameplay but like in personality.

The way he talks and acts gives major GG vibes and honestly I'm here for it!!

He was lowkey annoying in the first episode but now he's funny.

And the way other contestants treat him like some crazy dude not knowing they are giving him the main character vibes.

Things I'd Love to See This Season:

Theme: Actually committing to the theme and doing it right.

Nominations: Honestly, confession room nominations were the best. The current aesthetic ones are fine, but they don't have that same raw, old-school vibe.

Luxury Budget Tasks: Can we please have these back? Removing them killed a huge part of the show; those tasks were essential for creating natural, high-stakes drama between the housemates.

Torture Tasks: Seriously, bring these back. That’s all.

Captaincy Tasks: Captaincy carries so much weight in the house, the tasks should be just as intense.

Jail Concept: We completely lost the jail in Season 19, and the Season 18 one was basically a bedroom inside the house. It really needs to go back to the garden area, and it should actually be a challenge to stay there.

Host: Honestly, if Salman isn't interested in hosting anymore, which is pretty obvious, they should just bring in someone with more energy who actually wants to be there.

Secret Tasks: I honestly love watching secret tasks; they need to bring that concept back.”

House Aesthetics: The house decor has been way too dark for the past few seasons. Season 19 was a slight improvement, but I really hope they go for a brighter look this year, unless it's specifically required by the theme.

So I've watched Season 7, 8, 13 and 19.

Which season should I watch next?

I actually did think of watching season 11 but I honestly don't know if I can tolerate Shilpa Shinde on my screen, as she's the reason I stopped watching LockUpp, please tell me if it's worth it.

Or should I just watch any other season?

Just finished watching Bigg Boss 7 and honestly? It’s easily one of my favorite seasons ever! Let me break down my thoughts on the contestants.

Gauhar Khan: Yes, I finally get why people call her an OG! She was just incredible and easily my favorite contestant this season. I love how she was never afraid to stand her ground, had an emotional side that she wasn’t embarrassed to show, I really admire that. Even if she was a bit hypocritical in some situations, that’s totally fine by me.

Tanisha Mukherjee: I liked her in the first few weeks, but then Armaan Kohli happened. She turned into a total doormat who wouldn't stand up for herself against that man. She wasn't necessarily a bad person, she actually had a fun side too. I remained pretty neutral toward her overall, even though there were definitely moments where I absolutely hated her.

Ajaz Khan: He was funny at times, but that’s about it. The way he kept playing the role of the 'heartbroken, one-sided aashiq', even after Gauhar told him to stop so many times, was just too much. I think he genuinely liked her, but I don’t think it was as serious as he tried to portray. He was clearly insecure about Kushal, and I loved it when Kushal finally called him out on the last Weekend ka Wow.

Sangram Singh: I liked him in the first few weeks, but he was so spineless. He never took a stand for anyone and never had the guts to say what he actually thought to people's faces. I still don't know how he reached the top five. He’s a nice guy, but that’s really it.

Andy Kumar: One of my favorite contestants, he wasn't perfect, but he was so fun to watch. As the true entertainer of the season, he definitely deserved to be in the top three. He did some below-the-belt things, but I’m glad he always realized his mistakes and apologized. I really liked how he was always ready to look past things, like with Armaan and Kushal.

Armaan Kohli: I hated him; he was vile, disgusting, and a misogynist. The way he disrespected the women in the house pissed me off so bad, and it was frustrating that Salman never called him out! He was just an aggressive bully, plain and simple.

Kushal Tandon: I had a love-hate relationship with him. There were moments where he was my favorite, like the weeks he and Ajaz were constantly clashing with Armaan, and frankly, I loved it because Armaan deserved every bit of that. However, there were other moments, like when he disrespected Tanisha (even though her pushing him wasn't right) and mocked Vivek, that were just disgusting. That said, I loved his chemistry with Gauhar; they looked so good together.

Kamya Punjabi: The baddie of the season! She always stood up for what was right, and watching her stay in that box for 41 hours was absolutely phenomenal. She definitely deserved to be in the top five, and I was so mad when she got evicted. Also, can we talk about how beautiful she looked throughout the season?

Overall, this season was like a movie, where everyone was an anti-hero, well, except for one who was just disgusting, iykyk. It was entertaining, emotional, and so fun.

First she gets herself involved with Yogesh again, like you built you whole image on "Strong Woman Who Have Self Respect" but now you suddenly go back to the guy who rejected you.

Then all that outburst on Shreya this week, if she had controlled herself, picked this issue up on judgement day, she would not have been in the punishment cell.

Third, okay she overreacted, but when she was called out, instead of defending it, she should've just apologised, even Yogesh was telling her to say sorry, because she was infact very wrong, but she still victimizes herself!

The "Bewakoof" tag that she has been given is absolutely right.

These are my opinions on the contestants after the first week:

Anita Advani: Honestly, there isn't much to say, she hasn't really done anything until now, but I'm glad she speaks up on house matters.

Andy Kumar: He's really funny and is one of my favorite contestants so far. I also like that he speaks up for himself. I love his chemistry with Sangram.

Apurva Agnihotri: He hasn't really done anything opinion-worthy as of now, but he gives off 'green flag' husband vibes, so I’ll give him that.

Armaan Kohli: He is probably the only contestant I genuinely despise. He is rude, impolite, and mannerless. I loved it when Kushal stood up to him in his own tone, although I don’t condone verbal abuse, it was refreshing to see someone speak up when no one else (except for Gauhar) would.

Elli Avram: She’s a cutie, though I do think she should try to stand up for herself

Gauhar Khan: Probably my favourite so far, I love how she doesn't take any nonsense and stands up for herself.

Kamya Panjabi: She's really smart, I actually really like her thinking process and the way she articulates her thoughts into words. I would like her even more if she stops being in the company of Armaan.

Kushal Tandon: I didn't like him initially, but he seems likeable as of now. He speaks up when it's necessary and mostly keeps to himself, which is what I like. Him standing up against Armaan was my favourite moment of the week.

Pratyusha Banerjee: I honestly don't really like her. She seems immature and I absolutely hate it when she tries to justify Armaan’s actions every single time.

Rajat Rawail: Don't really have any opinion on him.

Ratan Rajput: Again she seems sweet but she's not really done anything.

Sangram Singh: He is sweet, but also very spineless. If you think someone did something wrong, call them out to their face. Don't go in front of the camera and start ranting about how that person was wrong, do it to their face.

Shilpa Saklani: I honestly really like her because she seems so level-headed. She hasn't had any issues with anyone yet, so I'm curious to see how she reacts when she gets confrontational.

Tanishaa Mukerji: She's sweet but seems like a people pleaser to me.

The way Akansha was jumping in between every fight of Yogesh, like gurl 🤨

Also that promo gave me the iks

I honestly had no expectations from Yogesh but had a little hope for Akansha but she proved me wrong again.

And atleast Splitsvilla mein toh aache bhi dikhte theyy saath mein Yahh to Nibba nibbi lag rhe h 😭🙏🏻

HORROR

I feel this will be new and much better than "old vs new" concept.

Also nothing like this have ever happened in bb before so it fits perfectly in that 20 year completion special.

When she was ditched by Yogesh on the show I genuinely supported and liked her. I admired this girl. After the finale, she lost all the respect I had for her. I won't shame her or verbally abuse her on social media, but I'll never be able to root for her. She has a cult fanbase, but I'm pretty sure there are people like me. She may not realise it now, I am damn sure she will regret doing all this in future.
