My take on the saga of Rahul and mocking yesterday:
I don’t know whether Rahul mocked Eijaz having to destroy his pets’ photos. I really, really hope he didn’t. But it’s not clear - so can’t comment.
He did mock PavJaz. And that’s honestly open to personal tolerance levels/liking of such. For me - I’ve enjoyed Rahul’s trolling in the past and I think it’s fine as long as it doesn’t come across insensitive or shitty. Like - I did not enjoy him mocking Nikki the other day after the adalat task - he made an arse of himself there IMO.
My issue - is not the mocking itself, but the lying and the attitude. He mocked peeth peeche - he got caught. He says normally - ke woh muh pe bolta hain. So why lie then? And he didn’t just lie - but was throwing off very shitty attitude, jabki Eijaz ne calmly pucha tha, and apologized straight after - and worse, Rahul jumped on Shardul - the one who actually wasn’t lying. Rahul did not look good yesterday.
My main issue with Rahul has always been that he has an inner obnoxious bully - he’s been able to tamp that down and shine through in other ways. But he often slips. And with Ally - I see that side of him coming into focus more strongly.
The comment on Eijaz’s body (which he shouldn’t have made) is only one instance - and I suspect, one of many to come - unless Sallu gives him a hint on the weekend. He didn’t with the age-shaming, so who knows. And I don’t know if it’ll help in any case - Rahul was given a hint as to his offensive comments just recently in the adalat task.
