After much speculation and anticipation by the housemates, the long awaited Merger of the three houses went down today.
The Housemates could not contain their joy and excitement as Big Brother announced the merger after the usual Friday Airtel Arena Challenge.
In his usual dramatic style, Big Brother gave the announcement which was met with excitement from the housemates. ‘Rubies you have won the Airtel Challenge. However, this week, there will be no swap happening. It is with great pleasure that I announce the official merging of the Emerald House, Ruby House and the Diamond House’, he said. The three houses would all move into the Ruby House where they will stay until the Big brother Finale.
This merge certainly brings a new twist to the game especially with the introduction of the Emerald housemates who the others are not aware are only in the game to confuse them into thinking they are also in the running for the $300 000 prize money. Now that the housemates will be living under one roof, one can only say, ‘the chase is on’.
