The eighth season of the reality television show Bigg Boss Kannada hosted by Kichcha Sudeepa has been suspended. Colors Kannada decided to suspend the show following the lockdown imposed in the state. The show, which began on February 25, completed 71 days before calling it quits on Sunday. The news was confirmed by Parameshwar Gundkal, business head, Colors Kannada, on Saturday.
Taking to Instagram Parameshwar Gundkal wrote, “It’s been 71 days since Bigg Boss Season 8 started. There are many mixed emotions that come to my mind at a time when I stand by the PCR and watch the 11 contestants walking around the house. Everyone inside the house is happy, as they don’t know the difficulties and challenges faced by people outside. They are also safe by being in isolation. We are calling all of them outside tomorrow after informing everyone of the current developments outside. Arrangements are then made to send them and the team home safely.”
He added, “Hundreds of days of work. Hundreds of people working in a team. The dream of a team that worked diligently will be halted halfway. It was a difficult decision that has been taken with a heavy heart.”
Currently, there were eight contestants in the Bigg Boss house: Aravind KP, Divya Uruduga, Divya Suresh, Prashanth, Chakravarthy, Nidhi, and others. There has been no update as yet as to who will get the prize money of Rs. 50 Lakhs? Or will the makers divide it between the eight contestants?
