With Tamasha Season 5 continuing to generate conversations around its contestants, Babrik Shah has offered viewers a closer look at the house dynamics through his own observations and ratings.
The veteran Pakistani actor, who is also competing in the current season, recently spoke with Dr. Zee about the contestants and was asked to assess their performances. Rather than limiting his comments to numbers, Babrik also highlighted the qualities he believes are shaping each player’s journey inside the Tamasha house.

Among the contestants, Zeyb received one of Babrik’s highest ratings. He gave him 10/10, particularly recognizing his approach to the games and his ability to think strategically.
Babrik also noted the progress made by Hassan and Fasih. According to his assessment, Hassan has developed considerably during the competition, moving from what he initially considered a weaker position to around 6 or 7. Fasih, meanwhile, started at zero in Babrik’s estimation but has since moved close to Hassan’s level. He described both contestants as brilliant.
Samiya Hijab was another contestant who caught Babrik’s attention. He rated her game 9/10 and described her as intelligent. His comments suggest that he sees her ability to approach the competition thoughtfully as one of her strongest qualities.
Babrik gave Esra an 8/10, acknowledging her strength while pointing out that anger can sometimes affect her abilities in the game. He also commented on her communication style and expression.
Sehrish earned another 8/10, with Babrik specifically recognizing her intelligence.
His assessment of Hamza was notably different from his first impression. Babrik explained that when he initially saw Hamza, he questioned why he had been selected for the show. After watching him more closely inside the house, however, his view changed significantly. He ultimately rated Hamza 9/10.
Hamza had also told Babrik that he had been triggered by him before entering the house, adding another layer to their interactions during the competition.
Babrik rated Yasir 8/10, describing him as a simple person while discussing his performance in the house.
For Rabia, Babrik’s assessment evolved with time. He said he initially recognized that she had a good mind, but later felt there was another side to her personality that became visible during the competition. He awarded her 9/10.
Laila was among the biggest standouts in Babrik’s assessment. He gave her a perfect 10/10 and said he had not expected her to perform at such a high level across the tasks. He was particularly impressed by the way she competed against younger female contestants.
Babrik also had a light-hearted message for Dr. Zee, describing him affectionately and praising his game.
He apologized for anything negative he may have said about Dr. Zee previously and told him that his performance in the competition was impressive. The exchange added a more personal note to an otherwise detailed discussion about the contestants.
What makes Babrik Shah’s assessment interesting is that his ratings are not based solely on how contestants perform in individual tasks. His comments also touch on strategy, intelligence, temperament, personality and the changes he has noticed as the season has progressed.
His highest ratings went to Zeyb and Laila, both at 10/10, while Samiya Hijab, Hamza and Rabia were also placed among the contestants he rated particularly highly.
At the same time, Babrik’s comments about contestants such as Hassan and Fasih underline how quickly perceptions can change in a reality competition. As the season continues, their performances inside the house remain central to how viewers assess their journeys.
For fans following Tamasha 5, Babrik’s observations provide another perspective on the personalities and gameplay currently shaping the season.
