New Delhi: Salman Khan will return as host of the highly anticipated ‘Bigg Boss 18’ on Sunday (October 6) and fans are impatiently waiting for its premiere. Images and videos from the set are going viral on social media, increasing the anticipation. One particularly viral photo shows Salman sharing the stage with the revered spiritual guru Aniruddhacharya Maharaj.
Guru Aniruddhacharya, who is fondly known as Pookie Baba online, gave Salman Khan a Bhagavad Gita in the first episode as a kind present. On October 4, the guru posted a picture on his official Instagram account that went viral, capturing the touching moment. He captioned the photo, "On the set of Bigg Boss 18, along with blessing all the members entering the house, Salman Khan was also blessed by giving him Gita.... Do watch tomorrow on Colors TV channel at 9 pm... (Translated from Hindi)."
The new promo video from JioCinema also suggests Aniruddhacharya's role in the reality show. It seems that the self-proclaimed godman will give counselling to the contestants.
According to many internet sources, Aniruddhacharya did not take part in the reality program, but he did attend the Grand Premiere to offer his blessings to the contenders for the new season.
