Waqt Badlega!"

In response to a query about BB 16 contestants by a social media user, Rahul said, "I feel when it comes to BigBoss, makers & contestants both take a bit of time to settle and find their sweet spots. Abhi shuru hi hua hai. I know the first two episodes were a lil off but set ho jayega .. thoda waqt do.. But yes, I would have liked to see better names on the show. (sic)." Another fan commented "Bro unaware he has the biggest fanbase and he knows it he is the only contestant who is joining big boss at the peak of his career just check his social media statistics".

And what you've said here below is valid even for the ones supporting their favourites from outside." Another fan said, "& thn You changed the whole game Dilwala Raja for many reasons."
