‘Bigg Boss Season 2’

After sweeping the audiences with the breath-taking action reality show –‘Fear Factor Khatron Ke Khiladi’ with Akshay Kumar, COLORS revealed its other ace - ‘Bigg Boss Season 2’, the Indian version of the internationally acclaimed show – Big Brother, that premiered on the channel on August 17th 2008. The sensuous Shilpa Shetty, winner of last season’s Big Brother UK has been roped in to host the ‘Indian’ version of the show.

Taking all this into consideration I decided that now I will regularly follow the happenings. Initially I thought that this serial was a little hatke than the cliché Ekta Kapoor’s K series that keeps the audience glued to the chairs. But with the passage of time I was absolutely disappointed to the core. I realized that it was a mere publicity stunt to attain instant fame by not so popular and so called celebrities of the Tinsel Town.

The constant gossiping amongst the house mates about their counterparts, the plastic behavior with each other and the backbiting that followed after each rendezvous was a big turn off. At the beginning I thought I was watching something worthwhile but my illusions came crashing down soon than later to my horror.

Apart from it I believe the house mates should have maintained some code of conduct for their own benefit by behaving sensibly. Many a times it was apparent that these celebrities were leaving no stone unturned to gain all the attention possible and gather public sympathy for God knows what good!

Serials like these are very harmful to the minds of young blooming buds of tomorrow who failing to make a correct distinction between wrong and right can easily fall into the clutches of the media giants for no good at all.
