Pratyusha misses her family



After 3 weeks in the Bigg Boss house, homesickness seems to be taking its toll on the housemates. After Kamya and Elli, it was Pratyusha who was seen shedding tears as she was missing her family.

After Salman showed Elli the video of her parents wishing her good luck and Kamya got a chance to talk to her daughter on her birthday, Pratyusha looked a little upset and low. When Kamya asked her to come out and sit with them, she broke down and told Kamya that she is not liking it here in the Bigg Boss house. 



Well here’s hoping that Pratyusha feels better in the house soon.

BB Saath-7 - Bitching, backstabbing and Bigg Boss!,



Day 4 starts with an announcement by Bigg Boss for hell-mates to choose one person from their side who has given maximum contribution to the wheel survival task.

After an unanimous decision, the Jahannum-wasi’s decide that Arman is the most deserving and has contributed the maximum towards the task.

Bigg Boss also asks the Jannat-wasi’s to nominate one person who does not deserve to be in heaven. Bigg Boss announces the result and it is Gauahar who receives the maximum number of votes and is asked to pack her bag. Gauahar is upset and believes that her heaven mates have backstabbed her.  

Action continues at the Jahannum side with Pratyusha and Ratan getting into a fight on relationships. Pratyusha accuses Ratan of pointing finger on her unhealthy past relationship. Pratyusha considers this to be a sensitive issue and asks Ratan to back off.

Arman, Pratyusha and Kamya are seen bitching about the heaven-mates and of how unco-operative they are. On the jannat side, Shilpa, Andy and Tanisha are talking about strategies and game plans of the hell-mates and consider  Kamya to be the mastermind. (Watch the sneak peek here!)

Later in the day, Bigg Boss announces the first swap between heaven and hell; Gauhar is asked to move to hell and Arman to heaven. Arman was welcomed on the heaven side with a tikka and a garland. He  is happy and excited at entering heaven and receives a warm welcome by everybody. Andy gets emotional on Gauhar’s departure and waves her good bye with tears in his eyes. 

Further, Bigg Boss announces the luxury budget and asks the heaven and hell-mates to select items  worth 1200 points. After a lot of chaos and discussion they finally arrive at a consensus. 

The day ends with a funny task between Arman and Rajat when they are asked to share a bed.  Unable to fit on the same bed, Arman is seen sleeping on the floor, while Rajat rests on the couch.

Gauahar and Armaan face the first BB swap!



Bigg Boss is definitely a show full of twists and turns and the new twist is 'Tabaadle ka Din'. Bigg Boss alerted the contestants of new things that are going to happen in the house in the near future. One more twist came up on the fourth day when Bigg Boss asked the Jahannum wasis to select one person who performed the best in the wheel survival task. They came up with a clear winner who was Armaan Kohli.

Bigg Boss called all the heaven mates to the confession room to nominate one person who is not very deserving to live in heaven. Most of the heaven mates nominated Gauahar Khan. Bigg Boss told both the contestants to pack their bags and await the next announcement. Both the inmates were told to swap their respective sides while the gate was held open by Shilpa. Armaan got a warm welcome as Shilpa put a ‘Tikka’ on his forehead and with all heaven mates hugging. Armaan seemed very happy when he arrived in heaven whereas Gauahar was seen missing her heaven mates. She was also quite upset because the heaven-mates, who she considered her friends, voted her out of Jannat. Will this change Gauahar's equation with her former friends? We'll have to wait and watch!

Elli's Hindi - Mashallah!


In the opening episode of Bigg Boss Saath-7, Salman Khan was seen praising Elli for her broken Hindi and was seen making fun of her. Even the housemates in the heaven and hell side leave no chance to make fun of her.

They make her pronounce different words of Hindi that would leave them in splits. Elli also takes this very sportingly and joins their laughter riot.  Moreover, she has coined different nick names for all the heaven and hell mates. In the first two days itself, we saw Armaan and Sangram pull her leg by teaching her wrong Hindi.

Elli seems to have  become everybody’s favorite amongst the Jannat and Jahannum wasis. Let's see how much longer this fun lasts.

Fight for food! BB Saath-7 Day



The third day in the Bigg Boss house starts with issues between hell and heaven where food seems to be the biggest concern amongst the housemates. Taking into consideration the limitations of food, we will see anxiety between the Jannat and Jahannum- wasis to optimally use it. Armaan picks up a fight with the Jannat wasis that they aren’t providing them with proper food and are not co-operating with them.

Later in the day, Bigg Boss announced the wheel task was successful but at the same time added another twist to it. According to the task, the hell mates have to churn the wheels even if the heaven-mates are sitting or taking rest.  Taking the efforts of Jahannum wasis into consideration, heaven-mates decide to stand until the task is over.

Further in the day, the hell-mates will be seen breaking the basic rule of the Bigg Boss house i.e. of enjoying sleep in the latter half of the day. Even the dog alarm didn’t work on them. Owing to this, they were told that their luxury budget will get affected.

After all the stress and tension faced by the housemates throughout the day, We will see, Andy and Sangram enjoying some playful moments. Also on the other side, hell-mates will be seen making fun of Elli’s broken Hindi and enjoying some lighter moments.

In the evening, Anita is seen getting chatty with Andy and opening her heart out about her relationship with late Rajesh Khanna. She shares some great moments that she shared with him and how much she misses his presence.

The fight over food continues through the evening and leads to a outburst between Gauahar and Armaan. The housemates on both the sides try to control their emotions but all in vain.

Looks like the real war has just begun between the Jannat and Jahannum-wasis. Armaan declares that he will boycott food if the attitude of heaven-mates remains the same.



Keep watching and catch more action, Tonight on Bigg Boss – Season Saath 7 everyday from Monday-Sunday 9 pm only on COLORS!

Colors begins countdown to its biggest property Bigg Boss Season Saath-7

how takes off on September 15 with Salman Khan taking viewers through the lives of the 14 celebrity contestants for 104 days through ‘heaven and hell’

Big Boss is set to rule the prime time slots once again, starting September 15, 2013. The reality show inspired by Big Brother, will be in its 7th season this year.

To mark the seventh season, the channel has decided to theme it around ‘Heaven or Hell’.

“We believe heaven or hell are both here. Whatever we do, we will get the result of that here. And that’s what we are going to show. Heaven and hell would both be there in the Big Boss house. You’ll do good, you’ll get benefits in the big boss house. You do bad, you get penalised. It’s that simple,” explained Raj Nayak, CEO, Colors.

The show will be hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan for the fourth year round. Khan will take us through the journey of 14 celebrity contestants who will stay away from the outside world and live within the Big Boss house, allowing around 90 cameras to shoot them every day for 104 days. The show, presented by Vodafone, will air every day on the 9 pm slot.

Big Boss will replace ‘Sanskaar – Dharohar Apnon Ki’ and ‘Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha Season 2’ which were launched in January 2013. The fact that Big Boss is Colors’ biggest property is evident from the fan following it has. As Nayak says,” You may like it, you may hate it. But you will never stop watching it. It is Big! It is so big, in fact, that there are speculations about the show six months in advance.”

Big Boss has already made its foray into regional television. While the Kannada version is hosted by Sudeep, the Bengali version sees Mithun Chakraborty donning the host’s cap. Internationally approximately 20 series of Big Brother are made each year airing in over 60 countries. In India, all three versions are produced by Endemol India.

“Big Boss has captured the attention of the Indian audiences over the past 6 seasons with unpredictable, unadultared, unscripted entertainment. Season 7 – or Big Boss Saath 7, too will have numerous surprises, with the audience reveling in the dual realities of heaven and hell in the confines of the Big Boss house. There are some new things, elements or experiments this year too. But you will have to wait and watch out for it,” said Deepak Dhar, Managing Director, Endemol India.

“Yes, it has been introduced in regional languages which is great. But what makes the Hindi version still tick is the fact that every year the contestants are different, the theme is different. You like to watch different people react differently to different situations and that’s what we are showing. Hindi being more widely spoken over the country helps as well,” added Nayak.

The cult show, as Nayak calls it, needs no introduction to the Indian television viewers. Yet, Colors has decided to market it strongly.

“Heaven and hell was not just a concept that we put up, it was rather a philosophy that we tried to show. There are around 5,000 spots in our own network and 5,000 spots across 40 odd channels. We have 100-odd print ads – a combination of one-pagers and impact ads and so on. On radio we are advertising across 12 radio stations. We continue to be active on digital and a better Big Boss app would also be available for downloads soon. The focus is on television so that we can reach as many eople as possible. The theme of ‘aow and Wow’ have been taken across all mediums,” “pointed out Rajesh Iyer, Vice President, Marketing, Colors.

The 8 promos have been on air for the last four weeks. Each of the promos feature host Salman Khan in a double role – as that of a devil and of an angel. The concept of ‘Jahannum ka aow aur jannat ka wow’ have been showcased in each of them. While one promo shows the actor is being lovingly fed grapes by beautiful apsaras under a tree and hit hard by a coconut by his devil counterpart, in another one he’ll be seen under a waterfall with his apsaras helping him brush, but not until his devilish equivalent makes an appearance by cunningly turning off the water! One of the promos has been created on the lines of the mythological concept of ‘Samudra Manthan’. After the show starts, there will be episodic promos every day. After the launch, the show will build direct interactivity with audiences through the Colors website and a specially designed mobile app that will provide them with 24×7 unrestricted accesses to the ongoings inside the Big Boss house.

Speaking about the show, Manisha Sharma, Weekend Programming Head, Colors, said,” When it comes to Big Boss, it is critical that we test different themes, concepts and formats that can thoroughly engage contestants while making for an all-round entertainment experience for the audience.”

Big Boss this year too will be set in Lonavla, where the 14 celebrity contestants will stay without mobile phones and laptops for 104 days. Specially crafted and designed elements will ensure that the contestants are always on their A-game. Host Salman Khan would be watching their every move through the week.
“It is interesting to host the show because if the contestants have had an exciting week, I get to do an exciting show. If nothing happens there, I cannot make it sound exciting. But this year, I am sure the viewers will have a heavenly experience and the contestants will have a hell of a ride,” pointed out Khan.
