Bigg Boss 11: 5 reasons why you should not believe Vikas Gupta evicted Hiten Tejwani

The logic behind Hiten's eviction, given in a new video, is flawed.

A 20-second video clip from Bigg Boss 11, which has links with Hiten Tejwani’s eviction, has created a stir on social media.

The video shows a hitherto unseen footage of the house's dressing room, in which Hina is telling Puneesh that Priyank has shared a secret with her. According to Hina, Vikas told Priyank that he always wanted to save him, not Hiten. But when the housemates were asked to choose between retaining Hiten and Priyank, Vikas took Hiten’s name. This was because Vikas knew that Akash would then oppose his choice and name Priyank, thereby save him from eviction.

So far, all fingers had been pointed towards Shilpa Shinde for the unexpected eviction of Hiten Tejwani, as she was the one who changed her vote at the last moment and favoured Priyank, who had once body-shamed her. But the video shifts the focus from her to Vikas. And here are the reasons why you should not believe in this theory.

Video is abrupt

The video is of only 20 seconds. It does not have any context. Hina and Puneesh are shown having this discussion in the background, while Shilpa is doing her hair in front of a mirror. Shilpa does not react to their conversation at all, while a revelation like this should have startled her, for she was the mastermind behind Hiten's eviction.

No video showing Vikas saying this to Priyank

While all activities of the housemates are recorded, there is, so far, no video of Vikas telling these things to Priyank, or Priyank sharing this with Hina. Thus, we only have Hina's word for all of this.

Poor logic

Vikas and Hiten shared a close bond in the Bigg Boss house. The duo shared a camaraderie in which Vikas was the schemer and Hiten came across as his follower. While it is convenient to believe that it was Vikas's well-laid game plan to evict the popular Hiten, the logic presented in the video is flawed.

Going by this arguement, Vikas and Akash would never support the same person, given their enmity. So, according to the video, Vikas chose Hiten’s name so that Akash would opt to save Priyank.

However, even if Vikas had chosen to support Priyank, making Akash go for Hiten, the number of votes for both contestants would have remained the same. It was Shilpa’s vote that turned out to be the final decider. While Vikas, Arshi and Puneesh had voted for Hiten, Luv, Hina and Akash had voted for Priyank. Before Shilpa's vote, both Priyank and Hiten had equal numbers of votes. 

Vikas might have said this to win back Priyank

Even if we believe that Vikas actually said this to Priyank and Priyank later shared it with Hina, this may not be the actual story behind the eviction. Vikas could have said this to Priyank to win back his friendship. As we know, Vikas and Priyank have been friends for a long time. Priyank was even thrown out of the Bigg Boss house for pushing Akash Dadlani, who was fighting with Vikas. Such was the Vikas-Priyank friendship. But later, after Priyank was brought back in a wild card entry, the dynamics changed and Vikas became friends with Hiten, while Priyank moved to the Hina camp. So, Vikas could have said this just to win back Priyank's confidence.

Bigg Boss house is full of lies

All said and done, there is very little amount of truth inside the Bigg Boss house. And viewers too doubt Hina's honesty, who is so far the only authority behind this "revelation". 

In his post-exit interview, Hiten had said that Shilpa taking Priyank's name at the last moment was a shocker for him. He was sure about Akash voting against him, as it was Akash's dream to stay in the Bigg Boss house longer than Hiten, but not Shilpa.
