Bigg Boss: Anil Kapoor Is Only Good Part


This
season
of

BB
OTT

may
be
a
difficult
watch,
observes
Namrata
Thakker.

Bigg
Boss
OTT

returns
with
its
third
edition
and
this
time,
the
show
is
being
hosted
by
Anil
Kapoor
instead
of
the
regular
Salman
Khan.

Despite
the
excitement
around
Kapoor
coming
onboard,
the
grand
premiere
of

Bigg
Boss
OTT
3

fell
short
of
entertainment
and
felt
like
a
snooze
fest.

The
fact
that
the
episode
was
almost
three-and-half
hour
long
didn’t
help
either.

Anil
Kapoor
got
his
part
done
right
with
dancing
but
as
soon
as
the
contestants
started
coming
in,
the
episode
became
meh.

One
of
the
reasons
could
be
that
this
year,
there
are
hardly
any
well-known
celebs
in
the
house.
With
each
passing
year,
it
seems

Bigg
Boss

is
becoming
more
about
Youtubers
and
content
creators
than
real
celebs.

The
viral

Vada
Pav

girl
aka
Chandrika
Dixit
Gera
was
the
first
to
enter
the

BB

house
and
her
interaction
with
AK
proved
she’s
made
for
a
show
like
this.

Ranvir
Shorey
was
next
up,
and
it
was
nice
to
see
the
actor
on
screen
after
so
long.
He
has
got
the
potential
to
go
a
long
way
in
the
game.

Other
contestants
who
managed
to
grab
attention
were
YouTuber
Armaan
Malik
and
his
two
wives
Payal
and
Kritika,
Sana
Makbul,
Luv
Kataria
and
Sai
Ketan
Rao.

The
rest
of
the
contestants
were
either
cringy
or
boring.

The
show’s
format
is
pretty
much
the
same
this
season
as
well
but
the
makers
have
made
one
big
change
to
add
extra
drama.

This
season,
there
will
be
one
participant
who
will
be
‘Janta
ka
Agent’
amongst
the
contestants
in
the
game.
Whether
this
twist
will
work
in
the
favour
of
the
show
or
backfire,
only
time
will
tell.

Apart
from
Anil
Kapoor’s
moves
and
charisma,
what
caught
our
attention
was
the

Bigg
Boss

house
and
its
interesting
interiors.

Once
the
16
contestants
were
locked
inside
the
house,
we’d
expected
fireworks
right
out
of
the
bat,
just
like
last
year.
But
nothing
really
happened.

Yes,
there
were
a
few
fights
here
and
there
but
none
of
the
contestants
have
got
their
real
personality
out
there.
It
seems
everyone
is
trying
too
hard
to
create
drama,
especially
Vishal
Pandey.

Luv
Kataria
seems
to
be
copying
Elvish
Yadav
but
his
plan
is
not
working
yet.
The
guy
really
needs
to
be
himself
or
else
the
audience
will
not
connect
with
him.

Looking
at
the
first
two
episodes,
this
season
of

BB
OTT

may
be
a
difficult
watch.

If
there’s
one
reason
we
will
watch
this
season,
it
will
be
because
of
Mr
Jhakaas
Kapoor.

Unless
the
contestants
pull
up
their
socks.
