Overview

[edit]

Concept

[edit]

Bigg Boss Bangla is a reality television series based on the Hindi show Bigg Boss, which was also based on the original Dutch Big Brother format developed by John de Mol Jr. A number of contestants (known as "housemates") live in a purpose-built house and are isolated from the rest of the world. Each week, housemates nominate two of their peers for eviction, and the housemates who received the most nominations would face a public vote. Of these, one would eventually leave, having been "evicted" from the House. However, there were exceptions to this process as dictated by Bigg Boss Bangla. In the final week, there were three housemates remaining, and the public voted for who they wanted to win. The housemates in the Bengali version are primarily celebrities.[4]

The House

[edit]

The Bigg Boss House is located in the tourist center of Lonavala, Pune district of Maharashtra. It is well furnished and decorated. It has all kinds of modern amenities, one king size bedroom and one royal bath room. There is a garden, pool, activity area and gym in the House. There is also a Confession Room, where the housemates may be called in by Bigg Boss for any kind of conversation, and for the nomination process.[5][6] The House has no TV connection, no phones, no Internet connection, clocks, pen or paper.[4]

Rules

[edit]

While all the rules have never been told to the audience, the most prominent ones are clearly seen. The inmates are not permitted to talk in any other language except Bengali. They always have to wear a lapel. They cannot leave the House premises at any time unless they are evicted or decided by Bigg Boss. They can discuss the nomination process with anyone.[7] They are not allowed to sleep without the permission of Bigg Boss.

[edit]

Each season gets its own Bigg Boss 'Eye' logo which is similar to the Bigg Boss and Big Brother shows. The first season of Bigg Boss Bangla on Colors Bangla inherited its logo from the sixth season of its Hindi counterpart in the form of a human eye with an eyeball displaying the SMPTE color bars, against a purple, lightning storm background. The second season got its dedicated logo in the form of a more detailed human eye against a background of purple tornado. This logo also had the text 'Season 2' below the 'Eye' and the tagline for the second season was 'Byata Dumukho'. The eye for the third season had humanoid feature, with red and golden accents in the iris. The lens depicted the eye as a mechanical one while the iris had golden tick marks. Additionally, the eye had bold golden eyeliners with subtle tick marks on it indicating eyelashes.
