Pamela boosts 'Bigg Boss 4' TRPs

New Delhi, Nov 18 (IANS) Former 'Baywatch' star Pamela Anderson's hyped entry, coupled with a heated argument between contestants Dolly Bindra and Sameer Soni, has generated maximum Television Rating Points (TRPs) for Colors' reality show 'Bigg Boss 4'.

Anderson, popular for her sex appeal, is on the show for three days. She looked sensational in a white sari with a provocative blouse and teamed it with jhumkas, bangles and bindi to add an Indian touch.

Before her entry, a lot of drama had already happened on the show. Sameer and Dolly, who have now been evicted from the show, were on the verge of a physical fight owing to a verbal fight between Dolly and Shweta Tiwari.

The ministry Wednesday directed Colors and Imagine TV channels to change the broadcast timings of their shows - 'Bigg Boss' and 'Rakhi Ka Insaaf' - to a late night slot following complaints of vulgarity.

Colors moved the court against the order issued by I&B and the Bombay High Court Thursday stayed till Monday the central government order directing the channel to change the broadcast timings of 'Bigg Boss'.
