In the promotional clip, Rahul criticizes Shijin, suggesting he is faking financial hardship or poverty as a game strategy. The accusation claims that Shijin pretended not to know how to manage money or book an OLA cab to appear needy to others in the house. The promo further alleges that Shijin misled fellow contestant Komban into believing he was struggling, while in reality, no such issues exist. The clip concludes with a warning that these truths will be revealed when they leave the house.
The rivalry between Rahul Easwar and Shijin inside the Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 8 house has reached a boiling point, culminating in a massive clash during the Week 7 open nominations.
