Bigg Boss 17: Contestants Likely To Get Access To A Phone This Season
In a new and surprising twist, we hear that Bigg Boss 17 is allowing contestants to have special access to a phone inside the house for the very first time.
New Delhi: One of the most popular Indian reality shows, Bigg Boss is all set to return with 17th season. In a new and surprising twist, we hear that the popular reality show is allowing contestants to have special access to a phone inside the house for the very first time. This is a very unexpected change in the format as being cut from the outside world completely is the main USP of the show.
The introduction of a phone in the Bigg Boss house has the potential to open a world of possibilities for the contestants. Contestants may even have the chance to speak to their loved ones at specific intervals throughout the season. This special device will undoubtedly give a lot of unexpected advantages to the contestants.
It is undeniable that if there is a phone inside the Bigg Boss house, contestants will also have direct access to the outside world. So, if this is true, this is a breakthrough addition that will shake up dynamics within the house, every now and then.
Last season itself, we saw how Sumbul Touqeer’s father told her to stay away from her co-contestant and flame Shalin Bhanot as well as Tina Dutta, while revealing what they spoke about her behind her back, through an audio call facilitated by Bigg Boss, which resulted in a lot of drama. Apart from this, there have been a few more instances when individual visitors have entered the house and delivered some news by chance, creating excitement and stirring emotions amongst the contestants.
Now, with the introduction of phone, the potential for surprises and unexpected twists has only become bigger.
The celebrities who are expected to be contestants this season are, Ankita Lokhande-Vicky Jain, Neil Bhatt-Aishwarya Sharma, Munawar Faruqui, Jigna Vohra, Manasvi Mangai, Isha Malviya, Abhishek Kumar among others.
Bigg Boss 17 premieres on October 17 at 9:00pm and thereafter every Monday to Friday at 10:00pm.
