The 13th season of the Bigg Boss house has been shifted to Mumbai’s Film City this year from the previous location, Lonavala. The launch event of Bigg Boss 13 Hindi took place at a metro station in Andheri, Mumbai on September 23.
The controversial reality TV show is only a few days away, but, the show’s host Salman Khan is not very happy with the changed location.
During an interaction with a news agency IANS on the sidelines of a promotional event of ‘Bigg Boss 13’, Salman revealed the reason why Film City is not a great option as the new venue of the reality show.
He said, “Less of travel (will be required), yes, in kilometers, but in the wrong traffic hour, so it is more of travel. From here to Lonavala it takes anything between one hour fifteen minutes and two hours. From (Salman’s residence) Galaxy to Filmcity, in bad traffic, it takes a good two-and-a-half to three hours, sometimes even more.”
While talking about the format of the show, the Bharat actor said: “This whole thing of commoner and celebrity — I don’t think there is much of a difference between them. Commoner and celebrity are just terms. Everybody is a commoner, everybody is a celebrity. Once they enter the house and you watch them on TV, they become a celebrity.”
“In a month’s time, they (the contestants) have a finale. So, you are competing for the finale right within four weeks, and then two weeks after that there are twists and turns, and then it is time for the main finale.” Salman added.
The makers of the show have confirmed Devoleena Bhattacharjee and Sidharth Shukla as Bigg Boss 13 contestants. The theme of the new season is a museum.
The BB 13 is scheduled to go on air from September 29, at 9 PM and from Monday to Friday it will be seen at 10:30 PM on Colors TV
