Big Boss 2 : Nominations This Week

This week housemates has nominated Elina for the consecutive time and Big Boss has has chosen Raja for using abusive language against Sambhavna. This week's nomination witnessed an unique feature. The housemates used to nominate in the confession room but this time they have nominate in the open hall - in front of every participants.

Ashutosh is a backstabber!

Tonight's guests on Bigg Boss Season 2, Sajid Khan and his sister Farah Khan seemed to agree that Rahul Mahajan was a 'cutie pie' and was the most entertaining housemate. Sajid seemed to be sure that Ketki will be evicted while Farah was of the opinion that Zulfi or Alina would be out. Both of them wanted Payal to continue. Farah even nicknamed her "Khaitan" as Payal keeps referring to her 'fans' all the time. The other nicknames given by the celebrity siblings were: Boring for Debojit, Backstabber for Ahsutosh and Drama Queen for Sambhavna.
Meanwhile in tonight's episode, Ketki seemed more than relieved to be out of the BB2 house as host Shilpa Shetty pointed out, she looked "Happy." Ketki had a tearful reunion with her family and looked shocked when it was revealed that Payal too had nominated her. Among the housemates Alina sobbed the loudest when Ketki left and the girls even touched her feet. Ahsaan kept commenting on the proceedings in his usual style.
Among the three women left in the house, only Sambhavna has not been nominated so far, as both Payal and Alina have had a close call. The question now is, are the men in the Bigg Boss house conspiring against the women? Can any of the three girls survive till the very end?

It's 'Exit Ketki Dave' this week

The Ara Ra Ra fame Ketki Dave who became a household name with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi has been evicted from the Bigg Boss 2 house this week. Ketki whose earlier brush with reality television was the dance show Nach Baliye has been desperately trying to regain her Kyunki glory back. But looks like her Bigg Boss 2 experience did not quite live up to her expectations.
Very early in the show, it was quite evident that Ketki was a bit of a misfit. Perhaps the seniormost member in the house in terms of age, she chose to be away from all the bitching and backbiting that the others indulged in. In week two, as people started forming their own groups in the house, Ketki once told Sambhavana how this was an unhealthy trend.
She was also the most disciplined of the lot, given that she was most often the first to wake up each morning. Ketki was ironically also the first to enter the Bigg Boss 2 house on day one.
In the second episode, in fact, Rahul Mahjan referred to her as Dadi, which Ketki did not take too kindly. Ketki found a friend in Ahsaan – another misfit of sorts and the two were seen bonding as they talked about the festival season that they would be missing while inside the house.
But Ketki was also the most enthusiastic of the lot when it came to participating in the different tasks. From making modaks to designing rangolis to being the vice-principal and PT teacher of the Pathshala, Ketki was always on the forefront of the scheme of things. Maybe this was her way of beating the boredom, since she didn't want to spend her time bitching about the other housemates.
If Ketki's age led to a generation gap between the other housemates and her, she was also a counsellor to them. Payal confided in her regularly about Rahul and her complicated friendship. A practical person, Ketki would also calmly hear out Alina and Sambhavana when they had soemthing to say about Payal.
If Rahul is the man obsessed with cleaning bathrooms, Ketki's first love was the kitchen. And regardless of what the other housemates think of her, they'll be missing her cooking.
In one of the episodes, Ketki was seen getting really emotional about her kids and maybe she is only thankful to be out of the house in time to get back to normal life.

Big Boss 2: First class of Pathshala

At 9:30 am, the bell rings. Humko Maan Ki Shakti Dena is played and everyone assembles for prayer. The PT teacher Ketki Dave, who teaches yoga, takes the first period…. Sambhavana and Raja are not getting along too well in the class.
Poetry teacher Ahsaan takes the next class. After that, Principal Ashutosh Kaushik asks everyone what he or she has learnt.

Payal is very happy with the present task given to her by Bigg Boss. She teaches kathak. Sambhavana is a quick learner in this class. All the students really enjoy the dance class. While Sambhavana and Ketki are bitching about Payal, Payal is seen talking to the camera and saying that she knows that Alina is bitching about her to everyone….
Bigg Boss calls Zulfi, Ketki, Alina, Sambhavana and Payal inside the confession room….

Rahul is cute as a student

In Episode 23, Bigg Boss assigned the 'Pathshala' task to the housemates. Ashutosh Kaushik is the Princy, while Ketki Dave is the Vice-Principal and PT teacher. Payal has to teach dance, Debojit, singing and Ahsaan has to teach poetry. The rest including Rahul, Sambhavana, Alina, Raja and Zulfi are students.

Payal smokes up, vomits

The housemates wake up as Bigg Boss plays the Fear Factor song. Ketki requests Bigg Boss to send agarbattis for puja, Payal also supports her in this request. Debojit, Ashutosh and Rahul are in the smoking area discussing nominations; Bigg Boss announces that the nomination procedure will start soon.
Sambhavana asks Ahsaan to find out who has been finalised by the group to be voted out. Ahsaan, Zulfi, Raja and Ashutosh have finalised Aloo (Payal) and Paneer (Alina).
Meanwhile, Payal asks Rahul and Zulfi if they have decided on their vote, as she is very confused. Rahul and Zulfi say that they are sorted and now prepared to vote.
While the nominations start, Bigg Boss declares that the housemates have broken yet another rule of the house – discussing nominations. At the same time, he is also aware that a certain group has already planned whom to vote out. Bigg Boss warns that in case they vote as per plan, it will automatically be null and void.
The nomination procedure begins. Each housemate goes into the confession room to declare whom they want to nominate. After the nominations, the housemates disperse into different areas of the house to carry on their usual work.
Sambhavana and Ashutosh are talking and the former advises the latter to be careful of Raja as he is playing a very solid game. Later, Bigg Boss announces the nominations of the week.
Payal enters the smoking area and suddenly starts smoking, as she is a bit tense, much to everyone's surprise. Rahul asks Payal to prepare Tang to which she refuses citing that since he was rude to her last week, he should now ask other women to do his work. Raja notices this and requests Payal to make Tang for him, saying that they are a family and at least they have been with her. Payal happily accepts to make Tang for Raja. With this, Raja smiles wickedly, as if he has won a war. Later, Payal makes the drink for everyone including Rahul.
After a while, a fight takes place between Payal and Sambhavana in the gym. Sambhavana tries to tickle Payal, which irritates her to no limits and she snubs Sambhavana. Later, when Payal is in the kitchen to make rotis, Sambhavana snubs Payal to take revenge. This leaves the two females fuming.
After lunch, Payal tells Alina that Sambhavana doesn't know how to conduct herself and is doing everything for footage. Besides, she wasn't tickling her but indeed touching her feet. And she doesn't approve Sambhavana touching her feet.
After this, Payal begins to vomit and declare that she is stressed. Rahul accompanies her to her room and consoles her. He asks her to forget the fight with Sambhavana and not to react to such incidents. He then asks her to sleep.
Raja also comes in immediately to comfort her. Surprisingly, Sambhavana shows her concern for Payal. She walks up to her and hugs her. Thereafter, Payal and Sambhavana clear out their differences.
While this is going on, Bigg Boss calls Ketki into the confession room for the task. Kekti comes out and reads out the task given. She declares that for the next three days, there will a Pathgsala. She announces that Ashutosh has been appointed the principal, herself as vice-principal and PT teacher, Debojit as singing teacher, Payal as dance teacher and Ahsaan as the poetry teacher by Bigg Boss. The rest of the housemates including Zulfi, Raja, Sambhavana, Rahul and Alina will be the students. There will be a Pathshala from morning to evening. On Wednesday, the best student will be selected by the principal and vice-principal and awarded.
The task begins, everyone gets ready for school. Sambhavana seems really upset with her uniform, as she feels it is too large for her. She complains to Bigg Boss and keeps the uniform in the confession room for him to exchange. Meanwhile she dresses casually for school.
The class begins and everyone introduces themselves. First, it is the students and later the teachers. Everyone is allotted roll numbers – 1 - Alina, 2 - Sambhavana, 3 - Zulfi, 5 - Raja and 6 - Rahul. Roll number 4 is missing because Rahul and Raja refuse to take it citing that the number is unlucky for them. So, the teachers decide to skip that number altogether.

Jade Goody prepares to fight cancer.

Jade Goody was told she had a serious form of cancer. She would have died in 3 months if her cervical cancer went undetected. Goody has a hysterectomy scheduled for next week.
Goody’s doctors said that she had a large tumor on her womb and it was feared that the cancer might have spread to her bloodstream. If it had spread, secondary tumors may develop on other organs.
Goody said that she was gearing up to fight her cancer. She has two young sons and she wanted to be around for them. So far, she has not told them the truth about her cancer because she felt they were too young to understand.

Raja Chowdhury

Raja Chowdhury a much maligned abusive celebrity husband of Shweta Tiwari whose only claim to fame has been just the aforementioned link, didnt lose time in exposing his traits. Believe it or not his first sentence to ketaki dave on enetering the home was he just perfromed a dance with Shilpa on stage, unknowing of the fact that WE were tuned in and it was a blatant lie..which Shilpa pointed out without mincing words ” safed Jhooth”.
Raja Chaudhary played the main villain in the Bhojpuri film Saiyyan hamar Hindustani opposite his then wife Shweta, and the two even delivered a superlative performance in the popular dance reality show Nach Baliye 2.

'I hope my relationship is for keeps'

Actress Shilpa Shetty couldn't have asked for more - her career is going great guns and her personal life too is looking up ever since she met Britain-based businessman Raj Kundra. And she hopes their relationship will be for keeps.

"Raj is a huge support. I don't deny his presence. I'd expect it to culminate into something permanent. But there's too much speculation about it. Anything I say about my relationship will be misconstrued," says Shilpa.

When asked are you happy in the relationship, Shilpa said she would not be in a relationship if she was not happy. Asked whether Raj had taken hold of her life and career, she said, "No. All my vital decisions are still taken by my father. He's 67 and still very strong, touch wood. I keep telling my beautiful mother she has contributed nothing to my looks."

And where does her love life with Raj Kundra stand now? She says he is a huge support, and is proud of his presence.

Shilpa seems to have found her perfect match as Raj is not only a movie buff but also makes a point to see all her movies. That apart, he's helping her with her film-production plans. He has produced a film before, so he's experienced.

Bigg Boss-2 fortifies Colors at No 3 position

Over 11 million viewers tuned in to Bigg Boss-2 in the first week, according to aMap data, helping Colors, the month-old general entertainment channel of Viacom 18, keep its third place among 12 such channels.
STAR Plus and Zee TV remain number one and two, says aMap, the agency that discloses viewership data overnight, as opposed to the more-widely-accepted TAM data, which takes much longer time.
Viacom 18 is the television arm of the joint venture formed by Viacom and Network 18.
Bigg Boss-2, hosted by Shilpa Shetty, who became a recognised face in the UK after winning a show on the same format, is the second big success of Colors after the game show hosted by Akshay Kumar, the actor who has given five hit films in the last two years.
"Reality shows on general entertainment channels are certainly kicking in the viewership numbers. But will this continue, that is the big question," said a media analyst.
The first episode of Bigg Boss-2 on August 17 generated the highest ratings for Colors (1.6 per cent) in the 10-11 pm time band, beating even the ratings of STAR Plus (0.9 per cent) and Zee TV (0.3 per cent). After the impressive debut, it slipped up a little, but was the third most watched show in this time slot all of last week after the soap operas of STAR and Zee.
Bigg Boss-2 replaced Akshay Kumar-hosted Khatron Ke Khiladi, the desi version of international reality show Fear Factor, which, too, had been an instant success just like its successor and had been instrumental in taking Colors to the third place.
"Colors crossed the 100 GRP mark last week and continues to generate over 100 GRP, thereby keeping the number three position," said a Mumbai-based media planner.
GRP, or gross rating points, are generated by adding up the ratings on a channel for every half an hour.

Payal flirts with Raja

Raja seems to be opening up day by day. He looks very happy and is dancing. He asks Sambhavana to teach him salsa, which she happily obliges. After a couple of steps, Raja does a Cha Cha Cha with Sambhavana. He then teaches salsa to Alina. Ketki is finding Raja's dancing skills really funny. Raja moves on to do kathak and tries to teach Debojit. While both are doing kathak, Payal notices their beat is not right and explains the right beats.
Payal is talking to Raja in a flirtatious manner and says that she is smarter than the rest of the housemates and is not interested in ruining her image. And the day she feels she can't continue in the Bigg Boss house, she will walk out. Meanwhile, Rahul and Monica are walking and discussing how Payal was furious with Rahul.

Debojit composes Bigg Boss song

The housemates wake up with the Dhol Baja song from Yuva. They notice that there is no gas in the stove and no water in the shower. All of them complain to Bigg Boss, as they are unable to cook anything. Bigg Boss calls Raja in the confession room and tells him why there is no gas in the stove – somebody forgot to switch off the gas the night before and this could have resulted into a grave accident.
Ashutosh and Raja start discussing their childhood and the nursery rhymes they learnt at school. Raja is again called to the confession room and the housemates are given the task of composing a song on Bigg Boss. Raja assigns Ahsaan to write the lyrics and Debojit to compose and sing the song. Since Debojit and the others fail to come up with the song on time, Bigg Boss gives them extra time till evening.
After all this, Bigg Boss asks the housemates to prepare modak on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. Ketki gets the task of making modaks. But since she doesn't know how to make them, she gets upset and tells Bigg Boss 'Izzat Ka Faluda Kar Diya'.
Debojit on the other hand also gets upset on forgetting his original composition on Bigg Boss and asks Bigg Boss to play it once for him.
We find Ashutosh and Raja discussing Rahul again, and how he knows very well what to say and what not to say. Later, Sambhavana joins them and says that Monica, Rahul and Payal are plotting.
Later, Ashutosh and Sambhavana are discussing the Friday evictions. Ashutosh says that he feels Rahul will be eliminated while Sambhavana feels Monica will be the one to leave the Bigg Boss house. She feels that Rahul has strong supporters outside who will vote for him. While Ashutosh feels it's Rahul's behaviour that will lead to his elimination.
Before lunch, we find Rahul and Payal discussing the former's behaviour towards the latter in the living area.
In the evening, the housemates come up with the song Yeh Hai Bigg Boss Ka Ghar and perform it at the performance area in the house. Raja finds the lyrics of the song quite funny and passes a remark.
Later, Raja and Alina talk about the elimination and discuss what they think of other housemates. Suddenly Bigg Boss surprises Debojit by playing his earlier composition and everyone is happy and they start dancing and singing.
Early evening, the housemates gather to do a puja for Ganesh Chaturthi and recite quite a few Ganesh bhajans. As the evening unfolds, Bigg Boss calls Debojit, Sambhavana, Ashutosh, Zulfi and Payal in the confession room to ask them how they are feeling being in the Bigg Boss house and if they are happy.
Later, we find everyone sitting in the garden. Monica and Rahul ask everyone why they have been nominated and everyone says it's because they are a treat to the rest.
Monica is called into the confession room and informed that the weekly task given to them has been unsuccessful, so they have been given a limited budget of Rs 1,300 for this week. And that they should immediately gather in the living room and prepare a list of things they need for the week and submit it.

Who's going to the lucky chap today: Monica Or Rahul?

Love him or hate him, you can't ignore him – that seems to be the general opinion of the Bigg Boss 2 housemates and viewers alike about Rahul Mahajan. Rahul was in the Zone with Rakhi Vijan all of last week, before she was evicted. The Zone was open again and unfortunately for Rahul, he has been voted again for it.
Accompanying Rahul in the not-so-coveted Zone is former actress Monica Bedi. Again, many a comment from the viewers says she's sweet and simple and gorgeous, and her quiet nature a sort of revelation. But here too, the fact remains that Monica has been 'Dumped'.

Recent trends prove that Rahul might be the lucky chap once again because of his increasing popularity.
Now, who finally gets evicted, is up to the viewers.

Goody cries foul play, Shilpa disagrees

British reality TV star Jade Goody is once again creating headlines. This time around, she has blamed Bigg Boss 2 producers for forcing her to share news regarding her illness in public. Meanwhile, old foe and Bigg Boss 2 host, Shilpa Shetty begs to differ. Here's more on the real reality TV war.
In an interview to the UK based TV channel GM TV, Goody revealed that she was tricked into giving out details about her illness on camera while she was in Bigg Boss' house in India.
Goody exited from Bigg Boss 2 about two weeks back after she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. She was told about her illness in the show's diary room, which she later went on to share it with her housemates.
"The producers wanted me to go out and tell everybody. I can't do that, I need my family and friends to know before I just randomly say it on television, It was really horrible. It was really, really hard because I had no one at that time. When I found out all I wanted was a cuddle or something, and I had nothing," said Goody.
Meanwhile, in reaction to Goody's statements against the show, Bigg Boss 2 host Shilpa Shetty has gone on record to say that Goody was aware of what she was doing and saying while in the house. It looks as though the old foes are at it again.
Goody is scheduled to undergo hysterectomy.
