Bigg Boss OTT 3 Finale: As Bigg Boss OTT 3 comes to a close, controversy fell upon contestant Ranveer Shorey, bringing him under the radar of fans and critics. Scrutiny on Shorey increased manifold when makers of the show decided to have a video message from Shehnaaz Gill instead of featuring friends and family of the top 5 contestants, as is usually the norm during any finale.
Are Gill’s Gestures a Strategic Play for Fame?
In the video message, Gill sends out her good wishes for Shorey, light-heartedly calculating his future as a brand ambassador for eggs, beer and chicken. She also wishes that he wins the show. But in the absence of Shorey’s friends and family—who normally appear to vouch for finalists—the whole exercise seems a bit strange and has raised eyebrows and speculation among viewers. Viewers are questioning if this is a tactical move to gain sympathy votes for Shorey.
Moreover, allegations that the gesture on the part of Gill is part of her attempt to further raise her public profile have further fueled the discontent. Critics claimed that all of Gill’s gestures, such as sending clothes to Shorey in the past, are motivated by an attempt to keep herself in the public eye. It is perceived that all these are tricks by the makers of the show to make the audience feel sympathetic about Shorey and get affected by his emotions.
Winner Speculation
This controversy comes when Shorey’s tenure on the show is nearing an end, and he is all set to end as the second runner-up. The finale has been marred with various speculations around the winner, with Sana Maqbool being touted as the likely winner.
Questions of fairness and authenticity have been raised with the decisions that the show’s producers have taken, along with the big figures like Gill associated with them, in this high-stakes finale. The controversy surrounding Shorey’s treatment and the show’s tactics remains a hot topic in social media and public discourse as the finale night inches closer.
