Oh my my... where do I start? I am so glad for Manu tonight! And people were manaoing premature rangraliyan on what Salman said on twitter and other threads ðĪŠ. I swear I have absolutely no issues with what Salman said today- khamakha log exaggerate karte hai. Yes, everybody's been gossiping and Manu was picked out unnecessarily perhaps. Haan, he was accused of and perhaps in sexist terms of being whatever, but just look at the number of times Salman actually gave value to Manu's opinion. Not once was he cut off. I would rather Salman take a simple class or two of Manu's than remain indifferent to him like he is to say Rohan or Nitibha or Mona. So Manu... woo hoo! You stay strong dude! It is so clear that Salman talks to Manu man to man and not papa to bachcha ð
Now, those outside India (Manu's fans in particular) just have to see the show online. Our regions cut off the last task completely (as always, it is the last 15+ mins that goes chop-chop at their editor's desk). Manu got an opportunity (and thanks to Manveer and Mona for that) to represent his case towards being Top 2 and in the live India voting that followed, 55% of Indians saw him in Top 2. Even our government was made with lesser majority, so, this is a great. Ofcourse other contestants may fare better, but this was lovely to know that Manu is indeed popular with more than 50% of India- 55% rather. I know this says nothing about who will win BB10, which is another ball game altogether, but so much for this forum and all its berserk representation ðĪĢ
Again, I saw Manu as forthright as he is always- when required to mention why he was better than all other contestants, he was genuinely good in pointing out others' attributes and still managed to mention how he scored above them and he was bang on on all the points. This guy is such a born leader- all he needs is a good platform to showcase his skills. And I really did not get what Rohan and Lopa had issues with, especially Rohan, when Manu had said such good things- felt like Lopa had hit the buzzer, so I have to do it as well ð
Yeah it wasn't much, I think it was only like for like a minute or so the criticizing that went on, and people said he was going to use in clips or something stupid to show what he meant ð
However I had a few issues with Salman grilling Manu, even if it was briefly. The timing: At this point in time, contestants who perform and play superbly during the week should be shown positive especially when the finale is reaching. Had Salman did this to Manu say even a week ago, or 2 I wouldn't have had a problem with it.
How Salman said that Manveer only listens, when Manu is taking about contestants. which is bullshit! Manveer contributes just as much as Manu does in this regard. However I'm not surprised that Salman read the pamphlet for this one on the BB editor's manual, and avoided the grill for him.
All in all I don't like Salman for how lenient and pampering he has done for Bani's sake, but I'll admit he wasn't too rough on Manu, so thank god for that.
Manu obviously was quite frustrated afterwards as he took it to heart, and kinda went angry on Mona later on, but it was good that they patched up later on. ð
