Agencies
For those who were eagerly waiting for the sixth season of Big Boss Tamil, here comes the good news for them. The first promo, or teaser video, for the reality television show has been released. The show will mark the return of Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan, who will be seen hosting the show for the sixth time.

What is special in the promo video of Big Boss Tamil Season 6?

The promo video gives a clear message through Kamal Haasan, who is asking the viewers if they are prepared for the hunt. The actor can be seen coming out of a giant double door and entering a place that seemingly looks like a haunted place. Kamal Haasan is dressed in a golden blazer, a matching pant, and a salt and pepper hairstyle with a thick moustache similar to the one in his latest blockbuster film Vikram.

In the end, the actor gives a teaser to the viewers, saying, "Vettaiku ready-ah?", which reads as' Are you ready for the hunt?’ The promo elements suggest that the theme of the latest season could be horror. The sixth season will be live-streamed on Disney+Hotstar.


What was the controversy behind the 2017 Big Boss Tamil?

2017 was the first time Kamal Haasan hosted the show. The Hindu Makkal Katchi, the nationalist party, demanded a ban on the show for hurting the religious sentiments of the Tamil people and defiling their culture. Following the controversy, Kamal Haasan stated that Big Boss is as essential as cricket in the country. In a press conference, he reiterated his position that he is not answerable to anyone and is not worried about the complaint and the case against him, as he has full faith in the law. He further said that he doesn’t think that Big Boss is damaging the culture of Tamils. He went on to reprimand the complainers, saying that these fringe elements have not watched his similar TV shows for more than a decade.
