But this time Suniel will be supervising Biggest Loser Jeetega only from the behind the scenes.
Says Suniel, "Biggest Loser has been my life's biggest challege and victory. To get so many contestants to lose as much as 40 kgs at a go....it was no mean achievement.
So yeah, I'm bringing back the show. But I'd leave the practical execution and the nitty-gritty to my co-producer Rahul Aggarwal. For me giving the full-on time attention and focus that the show requires is not possible at the moment."
Suniel is extremely busy as an actor and producer. "But yes I'd be there to give the show all the boost it requires. We want the second innings of Biggest Loser Jeetega to be bigger and more decisive than the first part. Otherwise there's no point in encoring the show."
This isn't the only reality show on television that Suniel is excited about. "In the first week of July Ekta Kapoor and I went on air with our Bollywod talent-scouting show called Kaun Jeetega Bollywood Ka Ticket.
The winners will be part of a big film co-produced by me and Ekta called Gen Next. It will be a light-hearted action film directed by Apoorva Lakhia. Sanjay Dutt, Zayed Khan and Tusshar Kapoor will also be part of it."
Earlier the plan was to select only the 2 winners from the show to be in Gen Next. But now Suniel wants to use all the finalists in his movie productions.
"Bollywood needs as much talented as it can get. So yes, I'd like to find a place in my movie productions for all the finalists."
