Season 1 Full Details
- The first season of Miditech’s Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao, in which 10 celebrities roughed it out in the insects-and-everything-that-moves-infested Malaysian jungles, received a lukewarm response from the viewers.
- The show never succeeded in generating the expected viewership even after the makers tried to up their ‘oomph’ quotient as primetime primadonnas were seen in two-piece something gyrating under a waterfall! Season 1 Full Details
ABOUT the show:
- Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao premiered on 13 July 2009 on Sony Entertainment Television (India). It was the first and only Indian series based on British reality game show I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
- The winner of the show was Mona Wasu, who earned prize money of 10 million INR.
Format, Concept:
- The show is licensed from ITV's format, I'm a Celebrity...Get Me out of Here!. The basic concept is the same, where a group of celebrities have to survive in a jungle camp without any amenities, and must compete with each other to stay on in the show.
- Every contestant gets a handful of rice and some soybean or lentils for food every three days, which is clearly not enough for survival. Therefore, they must participate in various physically challenging contests and win "food credits" for themselves and their team members. Each day, the team must nominate one participant to play in the day's contest and be the bread-winner for that day.
- At the end of every week, the contestant with the fewest public votes and the contestant with the most elimination nominations from the participants face off in an elimination task called the "Maha Jungle Challenge". The winner of this challenge gets to stay back while the loser is eliminated from the game. The audience can vote for their favorite participants via phone calls or SMS.

Season 1:
- Ten Indian celebrities were chosen to participate in the only season. They were flown to Taman Negara in the rain-forests of Malaysia, where they had to stay in the jungle in an outdoor camp with little or no luxury amenities. Every contestant was allowed to carry any two luxury items of their choice, which they had to specify before the contest began. The ten celebrities were often divided into different sub-groups and made to compete among themselves every week.
- In the second week, 8 contestants out of 10 staged a walk out from the show as Akashdeep Saighal got bitten by bugs and worms while doing a task. The two contestants who decided to stay back were, Palak Kaur Johal and Fiza Chand Mohammed.
SEASON 2:
- 2021 Tamil Reality Show - Survivor Latest Updates, Participants, Contestants, Winner, Spoiler, Elimination
- The show came and went without a whimper and now the g****vine has it the channel might bring back its second season, which is expected to be a better version of the inaugural season.
- A celebrity participant from the first season says, “We have been hearing this for quite some time that Iss Jungle… will come back with its second season. Last I heard was that the shoot will take place in Andhra Pradesh or Australia, if it takes place abroad.”
- A source from the first season, “I really doubt if the channel will bring back the second season as they suffered huge losses on the first one. Even if the show has to come back it will be shot in Australia or they will go back to Malaysia. They hold a two year contract with the Malaysian government and as far as Australia goes, all the six to seven seasons of the international show ‘I’m a celebrity get me out of here’ were shot there. The show if returns, has remote chances of going back to Miditech as there were major hiccups in the first season. The celebrities who later joined the show were sent to the jungle in a hurry and nothing was planned. The crew of the show too wasn’t qualified enough to work on such a show. If the channel plans a second season it will go to some other production house.”
- We sent a text message to Nivedith Alva, Miditech Pvt. Ltd., about the probable return of Iss jungle and if they will will produce it. He replied saying, “No comment.”
- Danish Khan, Marketing Head Sony Entertainment Television, said, “I haven’t heard of anything like this.”
Voting lines:
- In a bid to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, the contestants have to survive on meagre rations, perform dangerous tasks, live with creepy-crawlies, and face the wild, all under 24/7 camera scrutiny. Every day - Monday to Thursday - one celebrity takes the dreaded Jungle Challenge, which involves overcoming a fear and collecting ‘stars’. The number of stars collected determines how much food the camp gets for the night. Contestants also have to find the Celebrity Chest, and the one who does gets the Jannat.
- The phone lines are open Monday through Thursday until 12.00 pm, for viewers to vote for their favorites. The results are revealed on Friday, and the two celebrities with the least votes will have to go through the Maha Jungle Challenge for a chance to stay back.
- According to Gurdip Bhangoo, programming head of Sony Entertainment Television, “The series has been well-received by audiences internationally and we are sure that the innovative concept will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.” ITV’s I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! has been the No. 1 show in the UK, USA, Germany and Hungary.
- Starting July 13, 2009, watch these famous celebs struggle for survival.
