Tamasha Season 4: Rida Tariq Got Evicted – But Was It Really Based On Audience Votes? The Public Thinks Otherwise!

Tamasha Season 4 kept us entertained during the first few weeks, but in recent days the show has started to feel more like a scripted drama than a fair competition. The decisions being made by the team and the Badshah are raising eyebrows, and it’s becoming harder to believe that the audience’s votes are actually shaping the game.

The Shocking Elimination

This Saturday, Rida Tariq and Ahmer Hussain were evicted. While Ahmer’s elimination was expected by many viewers, Rida’s exit left fans stunned.
Not just surprised – shocked.

How is it possible that contestants who are far less liked by the audience supposedly received more votes than Rida? This is someone who has entertained viewers from day one, stayed dignified even during heated arguments, and never uttered a single derogatory word. Yet she’s out, while others – who people openly say they don’t even want to watch – remain safe?
Believable? Not really.

Many fans were rooting for Rida to make it to the Top 5, and now they’re demanding a wild card entry to bring her back. But will that actually happen? History says otherwise – past seasons of Tamasha haven’t exactly been generous with wild card returns.

The Tamasha Team Is Clearly Trying To Change The Narrative

The favoritism and double standards this season are impossible to ignore.

Recently, 13 contestants broke the rules, but only two were punished: Saif and Yaseen – ironically, two of the most popular contestants this season. Saif made a mistake during his Wazarat, and Badshah punished him immediately. Yaseen slipped up, and Badshah unsaved him for two straight weeks.

But when Muslim committed the same mistakes?
Badshah merely reprimanded him. No unsaving. No punishment for the following week. Nothing.

Why this double standard? Are Saif and Yaseen deliberately being put in danger to weaken their fanbase? Did the audience really vote to keep the previous Wazeers in power, or is the production pushing for drama over fairness?

Last week, when Yaseen was the Wazeer, Badshah was in full “angry young man” mode. This week, with Muslim as Wazeer, he’s suddenly calm and forgiving. Convenient, isn’t it?

Makeup Drama & More Bias

The bias doesn’t stop there.

And then there’s the makeup drama, which perfectly sums up the season’s contradictions. The girls were ordered to surrender all their makeup and were clearly told that no one was allowed to use any products. Yet viewers noticed some contestants still wearing makeup. Malaika, for example, kept a tint and continued using it – and here’s the irony – she even lied about it to the Badshah not once, but three times.

Instead of taking strict action, the Badshah not only let it slide but returned all the makeup to the girls the very same day. Why return it at all? What was the point of the rule if the Badshah himself can’t stand by what he says? The entire incident makes it obvious that the enforcement of rules depends on which group a contestant belongs to, not on fairness.

Was she punished? Of course not.
Why? Because she belongs to the other group – the one that’s clearly being favored by the show.

As it stands, Yaseen is unsafe this week thanks to another questionable decision by the Badshah, while Muslim, as Wazeer, is automatically safe, along with Omi. The rest of the contestants will fight to save themselves.

Who are you rooting for this season?
