calm' memes are
rightly used as
Bigg Boss 11 is all
set to launch on
October 1 on
Colors. The
Salman Khan
hosted show will
see the
contestants
divided into two
houses as per the
theme of
neighbourhood
this season.
Though names of
probable
contestants started doing rounds from
more than a month, the makers are
unusually secretive about the contestants
this season. Apart from television beauty
Hina Khan, small screen superstar couple
Hiten Tejwani and Gauri Pradhan are also
set to get locked in the controversial house.
Shared a source with indianexpress.com,
"Getting a couple always adds more drama
and fun and staying true to the custom, the
makers have zeroed in on Hiten-Gauri this
time. Hiten is already on board and since
Gauri is shooting for Colors show Tu
Aashiqui, the makers are currently graphing
out her participation.
As readers would remember, Bigg Boss has
hosted couples like Tanaaz-Bakhtiyar Irani,
Keith Sequeira-Rochelle Rao, Suyyash Rai-
Kishwer Merchantt and Shilpa-Apurva
Agnihotri in its previous seasons. Having a
couple not only adds to the romance factor
but also drama and fights. With partners
standing against each other in competition
or paired up with another, it all adds up to
the entertainment factor. And not to forget
the controversy if either, or both try to cosy
up to another contestant.
Hiten and Gauri met on the sets of Kutumb
and fell in love soon after. Being married for
more than 13 years, the couple has twins
a boy and a girl. While Hiten is a chilled out
fun guy, Gauri is a reserved person, who
lets her hair down only in the close
confinement of her house. Sources also
state that even if Gauri misses the bus
owing to her commitment towards the
show, Hiten will definitely be seen in Bigg
Boss 11. "Gauri doesn't shoot regularly for
Tu Aashiqui and has only given around 15
days to the production. Things are still
being discussed to adjust her absence as
the couple is keen to enter the show
together, the source added.
Hiten, who is fondly remembered as Karan
from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, has
also done substantial roles in shows like
Balika Vadhu, Gangaa and Pavitra Rishta
among others. He has also been part of
films like Krishna Cottage, Joggers Park,
Love Games and more. Gauri, on the other
hand, is an ex-Miss India contestant. After a
fulfilling career as a model, she started
acting and has shows like Kyuni Saas Bhi
Kabhi Bahu Thi, Special Squad, Meri Aashiqui
Tumse Hi under her belt.
Bigg Boss 11 will once again see a mix of
celebrities and commoners as contestants.
While names of celebs like Dhinchak Pooja,
Hina Khan and Priyank Sharma are doing
rounds, the channel has released the
identity of first four commoners. From self-
proclaimed God-woman Shivani Durgah and
daughter of a clerk Jyoti Kumari, to item
dancer Sapna Choudhary and underworld
kingpin Haseena Parkar's son-in-law Zubair
Khan will be seen in the show.
