The Demise of BiggBoss : As we know the show

Bigg Boss was the show that gave respectability and acceptance to the Gay community. It helped people to come out of the closet and be open and unapologetic about their orientation.

BiggBoss was the show that brought a woman like Lakshmi and gave her a platform to not only represent her community but also be counted as an individual beyond the stereotype image. In that season I found Lakshmi as the only sensible and watchable member of the house.

BiggBoss was the show that gave women like Seema Parihar and Sampat Pal not only a voice but a platform to voice the issues closest to their heart. We might've laughed at Sampat but she stayed true to her mission and that was highlighting the condition of women in the villages. So sincere was she about it that people in the house took to avoiding her. Yet THIS was the platform that helped her to reach out to millions of people out there.

Today BiggBoss is the show where a man tells a woman that he'll strip her and nobody takes the offended woman seriously - not the housemates, not the other women, not the producers, not the channel and certainly not the host and the other men on the show.

BiggBoss might've got the warden as a sop to feminism but it's lost out majorly in its inability to stem and punish such lewd behavior.

Edit details:

Just realized that the title of the post could be misleading and so updated the same. Thanks Raj for pointing it out. That is if you have just landed on this page and If you are not already tired of my tirade :)

I agree with you.

I get what TM is saying but I don't agree tht in the previous seasons Bb upheld the dignity of women and people like Laxami. In season 5 Sky and Sid were worse and yet were retained till the finals and Sid was soo proud of his youth icon image.🤢

i dont know about previous seasons but the way armaan behaved was cheap .he should b in prison not BB.he dont know to respect women.from day 1 he was like dat aurat ko apni jagah dhikhane ki khoshish kartha hai khud ka koi aukaat nahi.guahar was d only one who said to ellie to stand up for herself others r trying to prove ellie was wrong which she clearly is NOT.colours should b ashamed for showing women abuse on national TV and trying to make fun out of it.And i saw some people saying ellie was inviting armaan i dont understand does saying "thappad marungi" is inviting 😕 .

sorry , this is not the first time a woman has been verablly abused or has been talked bad about ,past seasons have such various incidents . back then bigg boss did not do anything in terms of stopping this cheapness ,then how could he do now? Also, the lady Laxmi , who you are putting up as an example was not abusive with woman , shradha ?


btw, this is only a show and even scripted as people says,so please don't take anything happens in it seriously . and this is not first time this show lost its dignity ,it kept losing its dignity from very beginning from the first season ..

totally agree about the armaan thing and i feel more disgusted toward pratuysha instead of supporting her she was making elli feel like the guilty party ..khud usse ratan or gauhar k baat bardsht nahi ho rahi thi ..cheap girl...only gauhar supported her others were making fun of her i would like to see how would kamya and prats behave if they were subjected to this kind of humour ...just because he is ur group member it doesn't mean k ap uski har galat baat py uska support kar skte ho ,.sick bunch of ppl

1. The whole concept of Bigg boss is based on that where some will play the role of victim and some tormentor in every season and every stage.

Season 5 was the worst with Sky Chamanlal Seigal and Sid the bully kid... Sky was seen abusing female contestants time n again...Sid even went to the extent of kicking Pooja Mishra...Armaan was no doubt cheap yesterday with his crass statements, but Sky definitely is the biggest abuser and a pathetic guy...
