Manikanta has never been seen as a team player in the Bigg Boss show and was primarily focused on his individual tactics, which seem to have been his strategy from the beginning. He often got offended by co-contestants for little reasons. However, ever since the wild card entrants joined, there appears to be a shift in his approach, as he now tries to get along with other contestants, though his core strategy remains unchanged.
In today’s task, even before it began, Manikanta told his teammate Vishnu Priya that he would not play aggressively to avoid risking his health and would only perform to the extent he felt comfortable. During the task, he demonstrated his individualistic approach by giving away a point to Hari Teja from the opposing team, prioritizing his personal satisfaction over the team’s strategy.
Interestingly, while Manikanta usually takes offense at minor comments from the original contestants, he reacted calmly to teasing from the wild card entrants. Additionally, the same contestant who has consistently avoided team play accused Prerana of not playing for the team, which seems hypocritical given his own gameplay style.
