By now, these reports may have already fired up the hopes and dreams of audiences and raised people's expectations of a possibility for being on India's biggest reality show this season.
Hearing of this development, Bollywood PR guru Dale Bhagwagar who has handled the media affairs for Shilpa Shetty during Big Brother and some of the most controversial Bigg Boss contestants from time to time, including Rakhi Sawant, Kashmera Shah, Sambhavna Seth, Vindu Dara Singh, Sherlyn Chopra, Ashmit Patel, Amar Upadhyay and Pooja Misrra, feels Bigg Boss could also target kids and teens and gain more popularity with their patronage.
`Apart from possibly generating a lot of hype and eyeballs, this could also help the show in the longer run, as when the kids grow older, the show's fanbase could also grow,` Dale analyses. `In fact, there could be a separate enclosure specially constructed for kids or maybe a separate playhouse where they could make merry,` he suggests.
`If this happens, then Bigg Boss might be able to change its late night timings and come in a prime time slot along with megastar Salman Khan interacting with children and youth,` Dale adds.
It can be noted that earlier superstars like Hrithik Roshan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan have successfully changed gears to attract kids and teens with films like Koi... Mil Gaya, Dhoom, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Krrish, Don, Ra.One, Dil Chahta Hai, Rang De Basanti, Taare Zameen Par and 3 Idiots.
Let's see if Bigg Boss could manage the same trick and reap similar benefits!
