Bigg Boss 4.

The episode featuring the two sensational developments was showcased Wednesday, and ended up generating a rating of 4.8, according to data provided by television viewership tracker Audience Measurement and Analytics. This is the highest TRP for the show, beating even its 3.6 rating for the launch episode, as well as the 4.4 rating garnered by the Sara Khan-Ali Merchant wedding episode.

Anderson, popular for her sex appeal, is on the show for three days. The 43-year-old, who greeted everyone with a ‘

namaste

’ when she entered the house, caused a lot of excitement for inmates Hrishant Goswami and Ashmit Patel. Before her entry, a lot of drama had already taken place on the show. Sameer and Dolly, who have now been evicted from the show, were on the verge of a physical fight.

The show is currently under the scanner of the ministry of information and broadcasting (I&B) for its adult content. The ministry on Wednesday directed Colors and Imagine TV channels to change the broadcast timings of their shows —

Bigg Boss

and

Rakhi Ka Insaaf

— to a late night slot, following complaints of vulgarity. Colors, afraid of losing money if they changed show timings, moved the court against the order.
