Bigg Boss, among a host of other reality television shows, has often been accused of being scripted, in order to pull audiences to the screens. However, ex-contestants
Hina Khan
and
Shweta Tiwari
claim that the show is not scripted but “well edited”. [caption id=“attachment_5169051” align=“alignnone” width=“825”] (Left to right) Aashka Goradia, Shweta Tiwari, Hina Khan. Facebook[/caption] In an
interview
with Hindustan Times, Bigg Boss 4 contestant Shweta Tiwari, who went on to emerge as the winner for the season, told the publication,"Bigg Boss is very entertaining and people keep talking about what has happened, but when I watch the show, I don’t know what to believe because I know a lot of it is edited. Many times, long conversations are only shown as two lines in the show, which then leads to misunderstandings.” A similar sentiment was echoed by last season’s participant Hina Khan, who also
called Bigg Boss
a “well edited show” Aashka Goradia, a season 6 contestant, too had a similar response. The actress had
said
that her sexuality was misrepresented in Bigg Boss and claimed that she was “intentionally portrayed as a lesbian through editing tricks.” The controversial reality show is gearing up for the premiere of its twelfth season, all set to begin from 16 September. The Bigg Boss makers announced during the
show’s launch
in Goa that comedienne Bharti Singh and her writer husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa would take part in the show as a celebrity couple,
bolstering speculations
regarding other contestants of the show.
