Bigg Boss 5 to hit screens on October 2
|
The Bigg Boss House this year is more compact unlike last year, leaving no scope for contestants to have any personal space or time. From being a sanctuary, the house will now be a cage with contestants gnawing at each other's nerves. This means not just more drama and more clashes, but testing the patience of the 14 contestants dying to breathe and let loose. The season is geared up for a double whammy with the two hosts ready to explode anytime unexpected. Bigg Boss fans will see contestants break away from the usual antics as they outdo the other, mean gets meaner while loud gets louder to win the cash prize of Rs 1 Crore.
Speaking about the new season Raj Nayak, CEO, COLORS said, "Bigg Boss is one of our flagship shows which has been successfully been running on the channel over the last 4 seasons, it is a unique format that provides brands an exciting and innovative platform, spread over more than 3 months. This year with two of Bollywoods biggest Super Stars , Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt as hosts we're confident of making Bigg Boss even bigger & generating both - higher revenues as well as stickier eye-balls. Vodafone continues its partnership with us third year in a row as a presenting sponsor, along with a new set of advertisers from across categories like FMCG, Automobiles, Electronics, SkinCare and more."
Elaborating on the chosen time slot for the show, Ashvini Yardi, Head ' Programming, COLORS, said, "Vodafone presents Bigg Boss 5 in the fifth season ups the game in double measure completely ' big gets bigger, loud gets louder, mean gets meaner. Making it twice as tough for the contestants are the two original brats of Bollywood - Salman and Sanjay who are out to give them a dose of double vaat. This formidable combo will bring alive their inherent on screen chemistry and cheeky humour that fits in well with the format of the show. Their impeccable timing, candid style and undeniable mass connect will make Bigg Boss 5 a must watch."

Now in my second innings with Bigg Boss, I am extremely excited about hosting it with my close buddy, Sanjay. If you saw me easy and friendly last season, this season I am going to be tough and gang up with Sanjay to lagao sabki double vaat. Making the contestants stay inside the house chaotic and a living hell is just a trailer into what's in store for them."
Speaking on his first time on television, Sanjay Dutt said, "Television has always interested me, but I never got the right opportunity to dive in. The candid format and fun element involved in Bigg Boss is what attracted me. Besides hosting it with my brother and buddy Salman was a reason enough to take it up. We share a great chemistry and love entertaining people. As for the contestants, Bigg Boss 5 is not going to be a holiday, beware its Double Vaat anytime!"
