Gautam's decision of taking the captaincy by giving entire ration was dumb, but in the long run it has worked out for him and more than him, it has worked for Soundarya. Because from past 2-3 episodes, Soundarya and Gautam are the only two people in the show who are looking positive. Rest all made a joke of themselves including Bigg Boss and the host.
Gautam took a dumb decision, but other contestants were dumber than him to go on a meltdown over his decision. Okay fine, you're not happy with his decision. But there is a way to show your disapproval. Bigg Boss only calls out Shalin's overacting, but Sajid, Abdu, Archana etc. didn't do any less drama. Like everyone knows Bigg Boss is not going to starve them. But still everyone wanted to get some footage by jumping on Gautam, and in the process they made a joke of themselves.
Almost everyone especially Shalin made claims that they're not going to eat food given by the captain in Saturday episode. But then on the next day, when Bigg Boss gave Gautam the task to distribute the daily ration (a new thing introduced now), everyone forgot what they said twelve hours ago and again started fighting over the ration. Shalin again got humiliated because of his obsession over chicken.
Sajid Khan's mask has completely fallen off. He broke Bigg Boss property and kept on abusing Gautam by giving maa-behen galis. Neither Bigg Boss nor the host had any problem with this, when both Shalin and Gori were bashed and punished for similar behaviour. Infact him breaking the property wasn't even shown in the episode. He eats his breakfast and then he decides to sit on a hunger strike to remove Gautam from captaincy. Also makes Shiv, Stan, Gori and Abdu to go on a strike.
Obviously Bigg Boss can't see his damad hungry, so calls him and his gang along with Nimrit to give them a treat. Why? In their words "to teach Gautam a lesson", when it was actually to get Sajid and the gang out of the mess they created by going on a hunger strike, as it would be humiliating for them to back off then. Also why was Nimrit called along with them? She ate the food given by Soundarya. The makers are trying hard to make her part of Sajid and Shiv group.
So after all this drama what happened? Nothing! Gautam is still the captain. Everyone is getting their food. Nobody is starving. Half of the contestants have also agreed to do the duties alloted by the captain. The bagavat started by Sajid and co. reached nowhere. All those tall claims made by everyone of making Gautam's life hell when he took that decision fell like a house of cards. All the drama and meltdown over ration is now looking completely fake.
In the process, Soundarya is looking very positive the way she stood by Gautam's decision and is helping him by doing all the duties. That also made rest of the contestants look bad for not helping out Soundarya. Bigg Boss plan of making Gautam and Soundarya look like a fake couple has completely backfired. Gautam is also looking positive, but some of his actions, like trying to revert back from his decision of giving up the ration over captaincy in a few minutes because of the backlash, not owning up to the fact that he took the captaincy because of his fear of eviction, his comment about people dying during COVID, is still making him look dumb and a bit negative.
However, he's still looking better than other contestants apart from Soundarya. I'm no fan of these two, and they may have a thousand faults, but it's clear that Gautam and Soundarya are the only two contestants who are not getting any favours from the makers the way they're being targeted by the host. Shiv, Stan and Gori might not be part of makers script but they're still getting benefitted because of their association with Sajid. Abdu is favoured because of association with Salman. Archana is favoured because she gives drama and content. Rest of the group of TV serial actors are favoured because they're MG contestants.
Soundarya and Gautam are the only two housemates who are not favoured, due to which they get targeted in WKV and their relationship is called fake, because makers only want to promote Tisha and Priyankit as couples. But audience would end up sympathizing with them if they're constantly targeted.
