'Bigg Boss' and 'Rakhi Ka Insaaf' now only for adults!

'Bigg Boss' and 'Rakhi Ka Insaaf' now only for adults!: The Information and Broadcasting Ministry has reportedly told the Colors and Imagine TV channels to air the shows Bigg Boss 4 and Rakhi Ka Insaaf only after 11 pm.

The order virtually puts the two shows in the adult-viewing slot. The IB ministry decision has come after a slew of complaints from TV viewers and women’s outfits about the objectionable content shown on these programmes which is not suitable for viewing by kids and families.

Now, the two shows will be telecast in the bracket of 11 pm to 5 am. Even the repeat episodes can be aired only within this time bracket.

“We have not asked the producers of the show to modify content or have not done any sort of censoring, just shifted the time slots allotted to them,” a senior ministry official is quoted to have said.

The shifting of the time slots is going to affect the TRPs of the two shows. Rakhi’s show has particularly been under the heat after a participant whom Rakhi called ‘impotent’ on her show allegedly killed himself.
