The Indian version of Big Brother is due to start broadcasting in the country from today. BBC News reports:

Called Bigg (sic) Boss, the programme format is the same as its inspiration and will be hosted by Bollywood actor, Arshad Warsi.

Thirteen celebrities have been chosen to spend three months locked up in a house near Mumbai (Bombay).

Unsurprisingly though “concessions” have been made to stop offending people’s morality. You see, Indians are not averse to sex otherwise the country would notbe the second most-populus country on the planet. They just don’t want it out in the open. Or so they say.

“We have been true to format except we don’t have cameras in the bathrooms and shower rooms and of course the sexuality aspect in the programme has been curtailed and controlled keeping the Indian audiences in mind,” the programmes Chief Creative Director Sandiip Sikcand told the BBC News website.

“Even Indian celebrities are also very concerned about their reputation and do not like to talk about sex openly.

“Also, when there are so many cameras focussed on them sex is honestly the last thing that comes to their mind.”

We suggest AIM magazine readers band together and be the first to offer a £10,000 reward for the first couple to get it on!
