Popularly known as India’s most controversial TV show Big Boss is all set to start its new episodes. This year, the officials decided to start the show in Tamil and Telugu versions and we all know that actor Kamal Hassan and Jr NTR are the hosts respectively.

Many assumptions have already topped the social media. This TV Show has already reached millions of people garnering enough attention for having the exemplary hosts.

While the Telugu version has its simple beginning, the Tamil version has already stuck in controversies. Earlier, a simple conversation between the contestant and host has resulted in a controversy roping in a threat of defamation case on the host. It was Puthiya Tamizhagam leader K Krishnaswamy who marched the issue.

Now after a while, another defamation case started annoying the host, a complaint was filed in the metropolitan magistrate court and the judge posted to September 1 hearing on the complaint. Stating that ‘Nadaswaram’, a musical instrument, which is treated like ‘god’ by the Isai Vellalar community, its president K R Kuhesh, submitted that in one of the episodes, actor Sakthi was seen throwing it from one hand to the other in a cavalier manner.

The complainer added few more things on the issue, he stated that the ‘Nadaswaram’ was placed on the table which on which the dinner is taken, which ultimately is another insult. Contending that Vijay TV, Haasan, actor Sakthi and Bigg Boss producers Endemol India Private Limited knew well that the act of insulting the instrument, would hurt sentiments of the community, the petitioner alleged that Haasan had not sought any apology yet, the show is being telecast on Vijay TV since June 24.

The petitioner then included that the deed was done intentionally with the motive of attracting viewers and thereby caused defamation, liable to be prosecuted and punished.

To everyone’s surprise, in the latest episode of the show, host Kamal Haasan had surprisingly asked the audience to question Gayathri, the evicted contestant. Until now, Kamal would engage the contestant in a customary chat questioning, critiquing and appreciating the contestant about their journey as when and needed.

Post the complaint and the backlash, the actor has opened up on talking about Gayatri. He said, “There were comments that I have been partial to Gayathri as she was from my caste. I had to quell this notion and hence, this direct conversation.”

Detailing about the casteism, Kamal added, “We have had a lot of talk about inappropriate language on the show. But, caste is a bad word that is ruining our lives. Please do not use that.”
