Bigg Boss 11 blog: Why Shilpa Shinde quit the last task of the season

Vikas Gupta and Shilpa Shinde struck a deal.

As the voting lines closed at 10 am on Saturday, the fate of the four contestants who are spending the last few hours inside the Bigg Boss house was sealed.

The last task of the season was “Vikas City”, in which Vikas Gupta won Rs 6 lakh, reducing the prize money of the show’s winner to Rs 44 lakh from Rs 50 lakh.

Hina didn’t yield to Vikas’s demands during the task, which explains why he could not win its entire prize money, which had been fixed at Rs 9 lakh.

Vikas plots and loses

According to the game, Vikas, as the “ruler” of the city, had to give outrageous orders to other contestants, which they wouldn’t be able to carry out. While Puneesh had given up after he was asked to shave his head, Shilpa and Hina were in the game. Vikas and Shilpa reached a deal that Shilpa would quit after she would be asked to jump into the swimming pool.

Then Vikas asked Hina to destroy prized possessions of others, thinking that would make her drop out of the task. But Hina didn’t yield. She kept on wasting time, pretending to break the things she was asked to.

Vikas then gave her his family photo and asked her to tear it with the heels of her footwear. Still, she didn’t give in and pretended to keep on trying while she actually didn’t step on the photo. Meanwhile, the timing of the task was over and Vikas could win only Rs 6 lakh.

Why Shilpa gave up the last task of the season

If audience votes determine the winner of the season, Shilpa Shinde is going to win with a huge margin. It has already been proved that viewers liked her and she did not upset her fan base by doing anything outrageous inside the house. She also admitted that she wouldn’t be able to scream, shout and beat people to win a task.

But it was surprising that she agreed to Vikas’s proposal of quitting “Vikas city”, because the prize for that will be deducted from the winner’s prize money. So now, if Shilpa wins the show, she will get Rs 44 lakh.

Here’s the deal

While it makes us curious as to what could have transpired between the two, Puneesh informed Hina that the duo have actually become friends, as Vikas is planning to cast Shilpa in his upcoming web series that he would launch after coming out of the house. Now this justifies why Shilpa, who has reportedly been out of work for two years owing to a fall-out with a production house, agreed to quit the task. Vikas was one of the creative heads of Balaji Telefilms Limited. Now, he runs his own production house.

Puneesh wins hearts

While Vikas and Shilpa teamed up in criticising Hina for “how low” she could stoop for a task, Puneesh took Hina’s side. He said she was just playing the game and it was wrong of Vikas to have used his family photograph for the task at all.
