However, Bollywood's only PR guru Dale Bhagwagar, who has handled the publicity and crisis management for a full 20 contestants of Bigg Boss points out, "It's not really odd to have Salman doing awkward antics. In fact, that adds to his dabangg, bindaas, bad-ass brand, which he knows how to play to the hilt." True that!
So all those who found the BB12 promo somewhat crude "need to take heart," says the Bollywood publicist. "I'm pretty sure, things will only get more interesting from here and add to the dramatic value of the firebrand that the show is. After all, we are talking about the House of Scandal," he winks.
Dale has also sourced and posted a little video of some of the past Salman Khan promos of Bigg Boss on his Twitter to prove his point.

The video, with promos right from BB4 to BB12, tracks an interesting journey indeed. Let's hope Bigg Boss12 turns out to be as interesting and controversial as always.
