Honestly, personally I felt very bad when Sidharth and Asim had a fight over fruits. I was there at that moment and I felt bad. I didn't know at that time who was at fault till the time, I didn't watch the episode. I don't know about Asim, he is emotional, but I feel more than Asim, Sidharth was involved in this friendship. He was emotionally more involved and attached in the friendship. I felt sorry for Sidharth in that case. I guess Asim moved on, but Sidharth has not been able to move on. (Photo: Instagram)

The time I have spent with Sidharth in the house, I have realised that when he gets hurt, he goes on to speak rudely which sometimes he doesn't even mean. He just wants to hurt that person. This I have got to know about him. He loses his self control and speak hurtful things. I feel Sidharth should have been with Asim, rather than Shehnaz. They were very good friends and were loyal.

I have seen how Sidharth has guided Asim in the show. He was totally naive, he used to get nervous even during basic nominations. He used to ask questions and always followed Sidharth. Later, when he gained confidence after two months, especially when Shefali Jariwala and Himanshi Khurana entered. He got the external support and he decided to fly solo. He must have got a brief about his popularity from either Shefali or Himanshi and that was the turning point. He got overconfident and it ruined their friendship. (Photo: Instagram)

Asim definitely used Sidharth in the game and you can't deny that. He was nothing without Sidharth. He was loved by the audience because of his friendship with Sidharth (Ram Lakhan jodi). Sidharth's fans also started liking his him because of his loyalty towards their favourite star. (Photo: Instagram)

Asim was exactly like Sidharth rude, aggressive towards girls. He used to get aggressive with girls in the task and talk rude. Though now he's talking about being good to girls, but when he was following Sidharth everything was fine. I am very sure after Himanshi's entry, he got some hint and he understood that if he has to go against Sidharth, he has to do something which makes him stand out. We have seen how he misbehaved with us during snakes and ladders task. He started strongly supporting girls of the house, because he wanted to show his differences with Sidharth. He was the one who told Sana, 'Teri jaisi ko main muh nahi lagata'. Sana did not make an issue about it. The sentence was similar to what later Sidharth told Rashami. (Photo: Instagram)

I was inside when the fight happened, but when I came out and watched the episode, i felt Sidharth was wrong in that fight. It was a very silly fight. During that fight Sidharth snatched apples from Asim's hand which irked him. There were no oranges and if Asim wanted to serve apple, Sidharth should have let Asim cut apples. But he snatched and Asim got frustrated and abused the situation and Sidharth felt he abused him. Sidharth, who was already pissed with few things pushed Asim, which he should not have done. So I feel during that fight Sidharth was at fault. (Photo: Instagram)

Shehnaz Gill's reaction is loud. She behaved in the same way when Himanshi Khurana had entered the house. I had shared a great bond with Shehnaz in the beginning, but slowly I realised that she is fine till the time she makes mockery or a joke of someone, but when the other person starts doing it she reacts in this loud manner. She can call names to people, but when someone else does she has a problem. I don't appreciate this attitude of hers. All the housemates have suffered it at some point of time and now Sidharth is going through it. Her problem is when she is good to someone, she wants her friends to be good to them, but if someone doesn't get along with her, she wants her friends also to stop talking with them. It is completely wrong. (Photo: Instagram)

I agree she is portraying Sidharth in a bad light. I know he has been telling her that how can she gel so well with people who have bitc*** about me. Sidharth also I feel here is wrong. Paras and Mahira who were so bad to him, now suddenly he is friends with them. He is not so naive to not understand why Paras and Mahira are friends with him. We all have seen it on TV, he had discussed his intentions with me when he befriended Sidharth. Shehnaz's game has been clear that Sidharth and Paras are the most strongest contestants and she has also flipped between them. (Photo: Instagram)

She has realised how popular Sidnaaz is outside, or about Rashami and Asim's popularity. She has realised now and her game has changed. She doesn't give too much importance to Paras now. She sits with Rashami and Asim. She is very smart and she is using these three. Woh kisi aur ke kandhe par bandook rakh ke chala rahi hai. If she is getting along with Sidharth and he has problems with Rashami, she goes anti Rashami and vice-versa. She is only interested in being friends with them. If you notice when she talks to Rashami she often says I told have a problem talking to you, but you know and leave it open ended. She wants Rashami, Asim and viewers to guess that Sidharth is stopping her to talk to them. (Photo: Instagram)
