Bigg Boss 2 : The Indian version of Big Brother

Contributor August 8th, 2008

The second season of reality show Bigg Boss is all set to hit television screens on Aug 17 and will be hosted by Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty.

It would be the first reality show to be telecast on all seven days of the week.

Shilpa, who won Big Brother last year, was almost a natural choice to host the second season of the Indian version.

Colors, The Hindi general entertainment channel from Viacom18 has decided to run the one-hour reality show seven days a week at the highly-watched 10 pm band. There will also be a 30-minute live and unedited version of the show everyday at 12.30 am.

Bigg Boss 2 will kick off on 17 August, replacing the channel’s driver show Fear Factor Khatron Ke Khiladi that is scheduled to conclude on 14 August. The show will run for three months. Both the shows are produced by Endemol India.

In the new show, 14 contestants will compete for a cash prize of Rs 750,000. Shilpa Shetty, winner of last season’s Big Brother UK, will host the show.

As part of the format, the 14 contestants will live in the Bigg Boss house built in Lonavala near Mumbai. Around 32 cameras will capture each and every move of the contestants. The house will not have any kind of entertainment or sources of communication with the outside world. There will not be any television, radio, music player, books, internet and phones.

Fridays would be the day of eviction. Saturdays would offer the spin off episode while Sundays would spice up the show with unseen footages ‘Andekha Masala.’
