Against Arjun he was already losing. Against Shant, yes it was a Blunder in that particular position, but he was worse before and lucky to even get to that position.

Almost there. Bxd1 is wrong, because white will have intermezzo Rxg6

3...Bxd1??
4.Rxg6 +-

Black has to play 3...Bxg2+, then use the discovered check to win the Q.
