Kamal Haasan to return as host of Bigg Boss Tamil, season 2 from June
Kamal Haasan is said to have shot for the promo of Bigg Boss season 2 recently in Chennai.
Actor-filmmaker Kamal Haasan last year made his television debut as the host of Tamil reality show Bigg Boss, which was received well and went on to become a huge hit among audience. The Indian actor will return as the host of the show for the second time in a row for season 2, which is expected to be aired on Star Vijay from mid-June, according to reliable sources. The promo of season 2 was said to have been shot earlier this week in a studio in Chennai.
“It is confirmed. Kamal sir will return as host of Bigg Boss season 2. The promo for season 2 was shot a few days ago in a studio. If everything goes as planned, the new season will go on air from second or third week of June. The process of finalising contestants is currently underway, and this process would take another couple of weeks,” a source told Hindustan Times.
Not long ago, reports emerged that Haasan, who recently announced his full-fledged plunge into politics, may not return as the host for season 2. It was rumoured that he might be replaced by actor Arvind Swamy. However, these rumours have now officially been quashed after it has been confirmed.
The first season saw participation of 15 contestants and among them few popular ones were Oviya, Raiza Wilson, Snehan, Aarav, Harish and Gayatri Raghuram among others. All the participants stayed locked inside a house for 100 days, absolutely cut off from the outside world. Haasan visited the house once every week to eliminate a participant.
