Salman Khan's health issue has not only affected his film schedules, but has also become a cause of concern for the makers of Big Boss 5.
The actor, who hosted the last season successfully, is supposed to
co-anchor the fifth edition of the reality show with Sanjay Dutt from
next month. In fact, promos of the show have already started airing.
According to the show's format, Salman has to trek to the Big Boss house
in Lonavala every week to shoot his part. Two episodes are shot
back-to-back, which can prove quite taxing.
Bigg Boss lasts for over three months and as the episode goes on air the
same night, there is no way any adjustments can be accommodated.
This has led to speculation that Dutt may have to host the show solo for
several episodes. Says a source, "The channel decided to have two star
hosts. They are keen that both be present every week. The Dabangg star and Munnabhai have their own inimitable styles, so together they can double the fun element."
Adds the source, "But till the picture is clear, Salman shooting for it
every week looks difficult. It will prove extremely hectic as he has to
continuously keep on talking being the host."
Last season, the actor had to return to Mumbai from Dubai, where he was
celebrating his birthday with his family, for a day just for the shoot.
However, channel sources say, "He has not yet reverted about any changes in the shooting schedule."
The show is also slated to undergo several changes this year to make it even more appealing.
As usual, the channel is tightlipped about the names of the contestants
but sources state that this season there will be a participant who is
pregnant. The channel refuses to name her at this juncture.
Also Navjot Singh Sidhu and Kamal R Khan (who is claiming he is in the show) are definitely not among the contestants.
The channel is keen that Karan Johar be in the house at least for a day
especially after Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh have been
mustering support on their micro-blogging sites to pack KJo in the
house.
