Bigg Boss, with a format similar to that of
Big Brother, will go on air on Sunday, August 17.
Goody landed in Mumbai in the morning and drove to Lonavala, where
Bigg Boss will be shot.
Goody has participated twice in
Big Brother. Her racist remarks against Shilpa created a huge controversy. Shilpa eventually emerged winner in last year's edition of the British show.
Now at the
Bigg Boss, Shilpa will interact with housemates every week for the eviction round.
The shooting for
Bigg Boss begins on Friday. It will be a daily one hour show.
The show is already in the news, with Aamir Khan's brother Faizal Khan alleging that he was thrown out of the show under the pressure from Aamir.
Identity of other participants is not officially revealed but sources said that TV actress Ketaki Dave and Raja Chaudhary, estranged husband of actress Shweta Tiwari, are among the participants.
