Karni Sena demands an immediate ban on Salman Khan's show Bigg Boss
The 13th season of Bigg Boss aired on September 29. Salman Khan has hosted the show since the 4th season, and Karni Sena demands an immediate ban. Here's why -
Bigg Boss, hosted by Salman Khan, has landed in a major controversy. Shri Rashtriya Rajput Karni Sena on October 9, addressed a letter to Prakash Javdekar, Minister of Information and Broadcasting, saying that Salman Khan's show Bigg Boss is promoting and insulting Hindu traditions. The letter makes reference to a clip from the show involving contestants from different religions, and goes on to tender an opinion on pre-marital relations.
"Under the Hindu act, I request the government to immediately ban the show because it is being telecasted on national TV. Bigg Boss show has totally ruined the Indian culture," is states. Take a look -
THE REALITY
The clip in question, which centred around an interfaith couple, was cited as encouraging 'Love Jihad' and triggered an outcry. The specific incident, however, had taken place four years back from Season 9 in 2015. The couple in question - Suyyash Rai and Kishwer Merchant - are now married.
Bigg Boss 13
The 13th season of Bigg Boss aired on September 29. Starting from the fourth season, Salman Khan has hosted every season of the show. With the launch in a metro, it’s likely that the set, which had donned various avatars over the years, could be designed in this way. The contestants that will grace the Bigg Boss house this year include Ameesha Patel, Koena Mitra, Daljit Kaur among others.
Weekend Ka Vaar:
The first show of the Weekend ka Vaar was quite interesting with full of entertainment. Contrasting and contradicting views were seen between the contestants in the very first week of the show itself. Salman Khan already had a heated argument on the very first Weekend Ka Vaar. Now it will be exciting to watch the next episode of the week after the nominations. It will be entertaining to watch how nominations affect the bonds between the participants.
