The second season of Bigg Boss is all set to go on air from August-end on the newly launched channel, Colors. The channel, we hear, has roped in Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty to host the show!
Shilpa, who became a hot favourite in Britain after her Big Brother win, has replaced Arshad Warsi.
Media source said, “Shilpa has been signed on for a whopping Rs 8 crore by the production house. She is the first celeb to be finalised on the show while the participants are yet to be finalised.”
According to the source, it was not easy to get Shilpa to host the show after her brush with racial discrimination last year, and “she took her own time to decide if she wanted to be part of the show.”
The show is slated to go on air once Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi (hosted by Akshay Kumar) ends in August.
Confirming the news, Rajesh Kamat - CEO of Colors - said, “Yes, Bigg Boss - Season 2 is going to air on Colors.” However, he refused to comment on Shilpa being signed on as the host.
