New Delhi: The 17th season of 'Bigg Boss', the most watched reality show in India, will air this month. It was revealed before the premiere show that participants may have access to a phone in the Bigg Boss house. For the first time ever, the reality show breaks away from its own tradition.


Former Bigg Boss participant Kamya Punjabi reacted to rumours by saying that it will not be simple because there will be a lot of struggle.


“Bigg Boss has been airing for several years now that every contestant comes prepared for it. After continuously watching the previous seasons, they kind of understand, before participation, whether there will be a secret room or not, whether there will be evictions in the first week or not, whether there will be a wildcard entry or not. They make up their strategy, but when the makers of the show then introduce new things like this into the mix, the entertainment level of the show for the audience as well as the contestant is heightened. It’s nice to see something new and something different every year,” the actor said.


“Access to a phone hasn’t been granted for the past 16 seasons, but it is being introduced in the 17th season, so I’m sure that there will be some conditions. I’m sure it’s not going to be easy, I’m sure it won’t be for everyone, it might only be for certain teams that will have win a certain task or something. There will be a lot of struggle with that surely and that will be worth watching,” she added.


'Dil, Dimaag aur Dum' will be the theme of this season, per according to the makers' promo. 'Bigg Boss 17' is set to air on Colours and JioCinema on October 15.
