TV channel Colors is all set to launch its third season of Bigg Boss in October this year. Filmmaker Farah Khan is the show's biggest fan. Every year when the show begins, the director hosts a dinner at her home and only fans of the reality show are invited to this party.
Watching the show with BB devotees is an event at the Khan home. Here she picks 10 people she wants to see on the show. And explains why in her inimitable tongue-in-cheek manner. Read on...
Bappi Lahiri
Bappida's a fabulous entertainer and good fun. It will be nice to know how others react to him and how much jewellery and if his own wardrobe will be allowed inside the BB house.
Kim Sharma
She will be fun. Kim is a livewire and very straight-forward. Forget tolerating nonsense, she doesn't even tolerate normal things in life. Kim will be one firecracker inside the house.
Abhijeet (singer)
He should be sent to the BB house because he will irritate everyone in the house so much that they will all get together and resort to violence. It will be fun to watch murder happen in the BB house for the first time.
Deepak Parasher
I would love to see Deepak back in BB if only for his nighties and knitted hair bands which became a fashion statement after he first wore them on the show. I miss those long nightgowns he used to wear. I remember that Rakhi Sawant had named him 'Nightywale Baba'!
Barkha Dutt
I would like to send NDTV's anchor to keep her out of our television for some time. She can keep grilling the BB inmates inside and when they all start fighting Barkha can hold a discussion and debate on why they fight right inside the house -- live!
Madhur Bhandarkar
He can then make a movie on the inner workings of BB. Madhur will have a ready made set, cast in the form of 12 BB inmates, free cost of production and 28 cameras. The best of all is that Madhur will finish his film in half the time he normally takes to make a film and then he will also win the National award for it.
Barbara Mori
If Claudia could learn Hindi in the BB house in one week, so can Barbara. The BB house is the best place to learn Hindi. The Hindi classes are not only for free but you end up getting paid for learning Hindi.
Mamta Kulkarni
I want to bring Mamta back from her hibernation. She is a full firebrand and was on the scene much before Rakhi Sawant came into the line. She is very outspoken and blunt and can teach Rakhi some tricks on coolness. It will be good to find out where she is.
Saahil Khan
We always need one muscled boy / eye candy dude types inside the house.
Upala KBR (writer of this piece)
Because for the next six months she will write stories of what actually went in inside the house. I will be voting for Upala every week so she can stay in there.
