Bigg Boss 16: Did Bigg Boss deliberately plot to break the Mandali just a week before the finale?

The current season of Bigg Boss 16 is in an extremely exciting phase right now with just a week away from the finale. However, not only the contestants on the show but Bigg Boss himself seemed to be playing a clever game with the housemates, especially the Mandali . According to the observation of some fans, Bigg Boss deliberately tried to break this otherwise very united group just a week before the finale.

For the unversed, the Mandali consists of housemates like Sajid Khan, Abdu Rozik, Shiv Thakare , MC Stan , Sumbul Touqeer Khan , and Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia . After Sajid and Abdu had to take voluntary exits from the show, only four members of the squad remained on the show that was Shiv, Stan, Nimrit, and Sumbul who pledged to stay by each other’s side no matter what. However, some of the fans observed that Bigg Boss himself played a crucial role in breaking this group, especially in the week gone by.

We saw how Bigg Boss called Shiv into the confession room and coaxed him to point out some of the shortcomings of Sumbul to which he said that she has reached here with a strong support system and that she is not his first priority. This created quite an uproar amongst the fans of the Imlie actress and some netizens even pointed out that Shiv’s clip inside the confession room was heavily edited that was made in such a way that it feels like he is criticizing Sumbul. Bigg Boss then designed the Ticket To Finale task wherein Nimrit chose to prioritize herself and retain her ticket to the finale task instead of giving Sumbul a chance despite Priyanka Chahar Choudhary wanting to fight for her.

In the nomination task, Sumbul’s performance turned out to be poor because of which the entire Mandali was nominated and Bigg Boss was seen giving Shiv and Stan a reality check on why they shouldn’t waste their time pacifying Sumbul. The Mandali squad also kept her out of the torture task which made her feel even more dejected. With the actress now being eliminated from the show, fans are convinced that the activities of the last week were just curated to alienate Sumbul from the rest of the gang and ultimately evict her. What do you think so?
