[edit] Concept

Fourteen (originally twelve) celebrities, along with a hidden spy (later revealed to be Ragini Shetty), are placed inside the Big Boss house for 12 weeks with only a suitcase of luggage and no access to domestic help or stylists. The contestants have to cook and clean by themselves, and are given tasks by the Big Boss each week. The contestants are also allowed to place "gambles" upon their tasks, gaining money to order supplies if they win and losing money if they fail. Every week, each contestant is taken into the Confession Room and asked to nominate two contestants along with their reasons for nomination. The nation then votes to evict a contestant.

[edit] Deepak Tijori replaces Salil Ankola

Salil Ankola was ordered by the Mumbai High Court on Thursday November 9, 2006 to leave the house or face criminal charges in accordance with the agreement he had signed in June to refrain from participating or acting in television shows made by other production houses that “directly or indirectly compete with Balaji Telefilms”. On 10 November, Big Boss ordered him to leave the house, after a direct court order had been received by Endemol India. By the time this was announced to him, he suggested that the contract that he had signed with Balaji Telefilms was possibly illegal.

After the controversial eviction of Salil Ankola from the house, Endemol India and Set India decided to replace him with another contestant. On the November 15 episode it was revealed that Deepak Tijori is the new contestant.

[edit] Rakhi Sawant brought back

After being evicted from the contest on the fourth week, Rakhi Sawant was brought back by Big Boss into the house. This created a lot of controversy among the contestants especially as she brought gifts for everyone in the house supposedly from their families. A lot of the house guests had trouble in believing her story, such as Amit Sadh who did not believe that the card Rakhi had given him was from his girlfriend.

[edit] Baba Sehgal is the new contestant

As a surprise at the end of a task given to Ragini Shetty (she was called into the Confession Room and told to fulfil the wishes of a bandaged, hidden contestant without letting the other housemates find out), Baba Sehgal was added as another new contestant in the game. Baba is a singer who released some commercially successful albums in the 90's.

[edit] Kashmera Shah brought back

As a surprise Kashmera was brought back. The contestants were unaware about her entry to the show. Kashmera's task was to make her presence felt in the house without coming in front of the contestants or telling them. She put clues around the house to let them know that someone other then the remaining 5 contestants was in the house. After being revealed to the contestants, she started telling everyone about the comments which Rakhi Sawant had made about them thus far, leading the housemates to confront and alienate Sawant.


[edit] Rahul is declared Winner

After 12 weeks of staying in a house shut from the entire world, Rahul Roy d one time charmer from hindi film Aashiqui, has finally emerged as the Winner. He was elected or rather not evicted from among the last three contestants. Carol Gracias and Ravi Kissen were the other two last contestants to be evicted out.
