The concept of 'Masala' in a show like Bigg Boss

Well, we have heard a lot that such and such contestant is providing a lot of content or Masala' in the show and we associate masala with entertainment in shows like Bigg Boss, which is true to a certain extent. I'm saying to a certain extent because a dish made without masala would be very bland & boring but a dish made with excessive masala or entirely of masala (whether good quality or cheap quality masala) would not be palatable either. Similarly shows like Bigg Boss need masala to make the show interesting and watchable but the thing is Both the quantity as well as quality of masala needs to be appropriate to make the show view worthy.

But IMO this season Bigg Boss has completely lost the plot. Bigg Boss has become like a dish which has become too much masala-centric . They are serving us a dish which is made almost entirely of masala and that too a cheap quality one (like Surbhi, Deepak etc), hence their show has become so unpalatable or unwatchable.

What do you think?


P.S. - Take this post with a pinch of salt (Pun intended) 😉

Honestly after last year the definition of fun and entertainment was changed to bullying , abusing, not performing task...so I think so called content giver (or providing masala)are doing same thing but I don't know why is bigboss still keeping them because from trp its clear people are not liking the kind of masala puppy club is providing...i can be wrong but highest trp this season was for week of deepika v/s sree...
After that It was kicked out of top 20...

A screeching mass of one dimensional personalities are being DEEP FRIED and served to us.

Like not a single person there has layers. Not one. Calling Juhi and giving her the trophy of this season also will make more sense. 🤪

I think the definition changed much before the last season... somewhere around the entry of Dolly Bindra, pooja misra etc.

It's like the only masala BB likes is Lal-mirch (bullying, fighting and shouting) ...and every season they are trying to increase the content of Lal-mirch so much so that now one cant even swallow a morsel... its become that unpalatable.😳😉

thoda bahut fighting, shouting pagalpan is welcome but too much of it is a headache. Yaha to bigg boss has become so fond of just one type of masala (i.e bullying , shouting, screaming) that he expects every contestant to provide the same kind of masala only.

How I miss masala - moments like Sonali scaring Gauti in the bathroom by acting like being possessed. 😆

I dont see shurvi deepak's fault too
When they plays calmly,lives in a friendly environment
Remember?bb discourages them,salman bashes them"keya aap logo ko issliye rakkha geya?"so they creates un necessary fight,chillam chilla abuse. Neha was out for no reason,bb thought she is not expressive,doing no fight.

To where bb set this criteria ki u must shout,scream,fight
Can we really blame those contestants?

And we can not escape too.
For example- first few days bb remains calm
We start"bhai keya boring show hey,bla bla"
And when fight starts we jumps into joy,chalo its fun

Those days were gone when Rahul roy jaise shant admi bb jeeta kar ta tha!! Aab agar shurvi shant ho jaye na,bb will either throw her out or instruct somehow that u need to buck up girl,u need to abuse.and if she goes out,we will be like" yaar keya ye bb kitna thanda hey"!!

I agree... though I think, more than personalities being one dimensional it's BB's expectations of all personalities to be one dimensional (all of them to be screeching abusing type) that is causing the harm. BB expects everyone to be the same i.e. the shouting, screeching, howling type 😳

Agree ! This is the reason we are ok even if we miss an episode.
