		<description>When I first started seeing Big Boss, I knew that there are some people I really don&#039;t agree with, Rahul being amongst them. At times he made me feel that he was faking, at times he made me feel he was being genuine but whatever it was, he would make you believe, believe in what he says. Be it our ignorance, innocence, simplicity, trustworthiness or his ingenuity, this man has a &quot;love him, hate him, but cant ignore him&quot; prowess about himself. You are left with a feeling of either trying to prove him wrong or believe in what he says.For the most part,for whatever he confessed on the show, be it the woman he wants to be with, be it the leader he wishes to rise as or be it the friend he claims he is- I hope and solemnly pray that he indeed was genuine on the show. Because India cannot afford another dishonest leader, and so can&#039;t Monica.</description>

		<description>Its disheartening to see that the kin of the politically powerful can do what ever they want; avoid convictions; disappear and then rejoin the society to become a celebrity... very disturbing to the common man!!
but guess thats the way it is</description>

		<description>Rahul has spoiled the BJPs so called good image in the whole country. Rahul&#039;s level of thinking and his behaviour would definately hurt his father whereever he would be (heaven/hell). It is quite clear that the people in BJP are two faced, double standard and power hungry. No one in BJP is reliable. It has definately lost ground on every field. It wont surprise me if rahul becomes the future leader of BJP.</description>

		<description>a man who cant make his wife happy….the wife who was his frnd for a long time and got married after all the mishaps…. broke the marriage within a year….

this man is just making a fake image of a good frnd and supporting character ….

every step he is taking is nothing but a drama</description>

		<description>Why do you think Rahul&#039;s emotional breakthrough is a &#039;trump card&#039;? Are you really that cynical?

Consider it, at the Big Brother house you&#039;re completely cut off from the present and the future. You&#039;ve got this &#039;god like being&#039; watching over your every move, and people around you are working hard to get you kicked out.

If it was me, I&#039;d be depressed and have a moment (or ten) of some kind of emotional breakdown. It often is the case when you&#039;re left alone with your thoughts for too long.

All things considered, having your father murdered isn&#039;t a pleasant state of affairs. Nor is coming out of a drug addiction.

Instead of congratulating Rahul on using his &#039;trump cards&#039; why not just see it for what it is, a man who&#039;s reached a better place in his life.

		<description>I consider Rahul Mahajan as a good actor rather than a son of a famous politician.

Yes, definately he would survive this week also as he is very much famous in girls and families also. Everyone wants to see him in Bigg Boss as he keeps doing notorious things which people like. Plus, he has a huge number of supporters in BJP party who also keep voting in favor of him. Therefore, I have no doubt that he would survive in Bigg Boss till the end of the show. Lage Raho Rahul Bhai.........

		<description>The reason for this transition perhaps can be related to disenchanment of the world rather than liberalization. It is the Megalomania of personalities like Rahul that enable them to take drastic steps to actualize their fancies. The so called values and traditions merely have become obsolete. Well, people may call it the way to step outside the orthodxy but according to my perception it is only example of &#039;humanity lost&#039;.</description>

		<description>What is wrong in using Bigboss forum for personal benifits. Rakhi sawant had used it and she was quite successful in that. 
I say in terms of timing, It was bad timing from Rahul. He shudnt have taken out this trump card so early.</description>
