Big Boss-Deeply flawed concept

I was quite an avid fan of reality TV programming such as Big Boss (India) & Big Brother (UK) and it was somewhat down to the actual idea of how human psyche works if it was completely isolated from the actual external world within a controlled environment. There is an element of the real personality of each person coming out and also watching others evolve & adapt as days go by. This whole concept was intriguing to watch especially if only a degree of manipulation & direction is involved.
The issue I have with Big Boss is how it has become completely commercialized and moved away from the original purpose of the programme to a mere "Comedy" house. The house is just a revolving door of magicians, Film promoters, wildcard entries etc.

The whole show needs to be brought back to the root of its conception where if you as a participant have any contact with the outside world you should not be allowed back in regardless of circumstances. Some instances which have taken place which should render a participant unable to return:

-Baba-Legal issue
-Priyanka- Eliminated
-Manu- Unfortunate circumstances but due a variety of issues (Emotional instability, advantage due to the awareness of perceptions outside)
-Jason-Health Issues, any medical condition which is serious enough that it cannot be dealt with in the house should be dealt with accordingly outside.

There are examples from other seasons too but it is just becoming a joke where people are coming and going as they please which in the end dilutes the whole concept.

Exactly the whole point is those contestants having no connection with the outside world except only and only the host.
But here even our Host keep giving his un-required gyaan altering their behaviours to a great extent. 🤢

So now three people get to go outside the house and that is totally against the concept of people being locked away from outside world for 13 or so weeks. I feel like it makes it unfair for the others. A lot of stuff can happen in their lives while they are locked in the BB house but when a contestant has to leave the house the game should end for them there. No more comebacks.

This is probably the most sensible post I have read here. Kudos.
Movie promotions are the worst. The useless actors go inside the house and do stupid tasks. Outside its salman with his nonsense hosting.

This sunday was probably the worst episode till date. The magician took forver. If this was early 2000s then his tricks would hold some meaning but those tricks are no more a novelty. Anybody who has been on youtube and know how to spell magic will see far better tricks than those. No offense to the guy, he was good in his own respect.

Movie promotions and stupid comedy has to stop. Krishna and that girl Bharti are such a bore. They are not even 1% of Kapil. Its high time the show comes back to its root.

Lets get some decent host who actually know how to interact with housemates.
