Shiv Sena storms set of Bigg Boss
Even as Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray on Tuesday said the presence of Pakistani artists on “Bigg Boss” would not be allowed, party activists barged into the campus of the bungalow where the TV show is being shot and beat up some security guards, reported the Press Trust of India (PTI). The Shiv Sainiks shouted slogans and protested the move by Colors TV channel to include two Pakistanis on the show – model Veena Malik and TV actor Ali Saleem, whose TV persona Begum Nawazish Ali is very popular in both Pakistan and India. Police say the activists beat up some private security guards.
A spokesperson for the TV channel declined to comment on the issue.
Thackeray vowed on Tuesday afternoon that his party would not allow the show to continue at any cost.
“In India nowadays, we are destroying our self respect. Under the guise of the show, Pakistan’s green poison is being spread in this country. Whoever loves this country, we shall ask for their support and not permit the show to continue, come what may,” he thundered.
He said the Sena would not be cowed down and his activists would disrupt the show. Even the Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has protested to condemn the inclusion of Pakistani actors on the show and have demanded that the TV channel evict them from it.
“Bigg Boss”, which is hosted by Salman Khan in its fourth season, aired its introductory episode on Sunday.
Not willing to take any chances, Mumbai police have beefed up security outside the TV channel’s offices in Andheri east since Monday.
