Bigg Boss 17 – India’s most popular reality show – is all set to premiere on 15th October, but prior to the glitzy launch episode, a mega revelation broke the internet! Stories broke out a day ago that contestants might have access to a phone in the Bigg Boss house. This is the first time in history that the reality show is breaking its own tradition, leaving everyone with so many questions! Will the phone be accessible to everyone? Are the phones only for favoured contestants? How much access will the contestants have? The list goes on. There are seemingly infinite possibilities that have been added to the outcome of the show that is sure to make all contestants change their strategy, and make Bigg Boss a lot more interesting to watch.
After hearing the news, netizen had a field day. But ex-Bigg Boss contestant Kamya Punjabi has an interesting take. Kamya Punjabi reveals, “Bigg Boss has been airing for several years now and 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.”
She further adds, “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 to win a certain task or something. There will be a lot of struggle with that, surely, and that will be worth watching.”
It will now be interesting to see what contestants can come up with in regard to the phone access and how might they use it to gain an advantage and play smarter. With the excitement building and the show set to release tomorrow, get ready to witness madness, excitement, and an emotional roller coaster that awaits the contestants as they embrace this new era of connectivity within the house when Bigg Boss 17 premieres on 15th October!
