Bollywood Hungama inside Bigg Boss 18 house: Wild card Yamini Malhotra DEFENDS herself against “Weak” label; says, “We entered at a vulnerable stage”

The Perception of Wild Card Contestants

In a candid discussion, Yamini revealed that her entry as a wildcard contestant has led some of the housemates to label her as a weak player. She expressed frustration with the perception that wildcards are at a disadvantage, particularly since the other contestants have been in the house for a much longer period.

"Right now, everyone seems to think I’m weak just because I entered as a wildcard. They are like, 'We’ve already been here for two months, and now more people are coming in, which we don’t need.' Because of this, many have directly said to my face that wildcard entries are weak," Yamini explained.

However, she was quick to defend herself and the other wildcard entrants, saying, “I want to tell them that we are not weak. We entered at a vulnerable stage, yes, but that doesn’t make wildcard entries weak. Over time, they will see that we are very strong and here to stay for the long run."

Changing Dynamics Inside the House

Yamini also spoke about how quickly the dynamics inside the Bigg Boss house change, especially when it comes to relationships and conflicts. She recalled her surprise at how quickly tensions shifted between Rajat and Vivian, who were involved in a heated argument before she entered, only to later reconcile.

“The dynamic inside the house changes every three days. For instance, when I came in, Rajat and Vivian were having a huge fight. But by the time I entered, they were hugging each other. I was like, weren’t they threatening each other just before I came in?" Yamini shared. "We had thought that when fights happen, we’d decide whose side to take. But it all flopped! What can you do when those two are already hugging each other?"

A No-Nonsense Approach to Strategy

Yamini’s no-nonsense attitude shines through as she addresses her approach to the show. While many contestants have their own strategies to stay in the game, Yamini remains firm in her belief that authenticity is key to success in the Bigg Boss house.

"As for me, my strategy is simple: I am who I am. Like me or hate me, but you can’t forget me. No strategy will work here!" she stated with confidence.
