Let’s start this article with a disclaimer that I am not watching Bigg Boss religiously. I had to write a piece on it, hence I watched the last two episodes and a few tidbits available on social media in order to confirm what I observed in the last two episodes. So, many may agree with my point of view and many might not but it is what it is.

So, aa per my observation, even though Bigg Boss 18 has many promising contenders to win the show, there are two contestants who are actually playing a game and none of the contestants have been able to decipher their real game so far. They are Avinash Mishra and Karan Veer Mehra.
 
In the episode dated December 10th, Avinash and Karan had a conversation where Karan was seen trying to encourage Avinash to play for himself and voice out his opinions more rather than being an echo to Vivian Dsena’s views. Karan referred to late Siddharth Shukla and Asim Riaz’s equation in the 13th season of Bigg Boss to support his point to which Avinash claimed that he is putting forth his views, voicing out what he seems is right even if that means going against Vivian.
 
But, hey! What actually happened here? Let’s decode. Karan was encouraging Avinash – Yes, correct ✓  but, what is his ulterior motive? It’s divide and rule. Now, the question is, did he succeed? The answer is, a Big NO. Why? Because Avinash Mishra is playing a really clever game and Karan has been able to pin it but to pin it down to the T, he needs more time and has to be more clever than his opposition.
 
Now, to prove it to Karan that his claim about going against Vivian is not just a statement, Avinash questioned Vivian in front of everyone about targeting three different contestants in a single week for the same thing that caused tension and as the result of it, Sara got really upset with Vivian.
 
Avinash understood what Karan was trying to do and also that whatever he said was for his own good but because Avinash knows that there’s quite a significant time left and he cannot reveal his real game as of yet, he went on and shared the excerpts of his and Karan’s conversation with Vivian.
 
During the Time God task, Avinash declared that if there would be an unfair game with either him or Chum, then whoever becomes Time God between them will avenge for the other. But, it was all words and no action and yet, it got him appreciation from all the housemates. Karan, Shilpa and Chum really appreciated it and that’s where Avinash took the lead over everyone, including Karan Veer. Avinash is basically trying to be in everyone’s good books and he is playing it really smart.
 
Karan did confess to Bigg Boss on the basis of his conversation with Avinash that the opposition team is trying their best to become Lagaan ( referring to how the movie’s characters eventually win ) but that his dream team is getting stronger gradually and also stated that, it would be fun to watch how Avinash expresses his opinions as the Time God along with listening to Vivian, but I bet, it’s going to be more fun to watch how Avinash fools everyone and goes ahead in the race with the biggest irony being, everyone else pushing him forward to be at the top. 
 
Hope, Karan Veer figures out Avinash’s strategy before it’s too late for him to catch up. Ahhh! Not a fan but this sounds too interesting to not watch it happen.
 
Stay tuned for more updates!
