Yes, that’s what the remaining nine celebrities are requesting on Iss jungle se mujhe bachao. The latest news on the show is that all the contestants on the show except
Shweta Tiwari and Palak have run away from the jungle in Malaysia and the shoot has been put on hold.
Though such ‘breaking news’ are not very surprising on reality shows. When a show fails to register great ratings the creative team thinks of various means to bring in the viewers. And in all probability this could be a gimmick to rake in the required TRPs. The reason that is being offered for the abandonment is that the celebs on the show are scared of the tough tasks and also cannot take the extreme life of the forest.
Says a source, “A few hours ago all the contestants except Palak and Shweta have run away from the sets and denied to go ahead with the shoot. They are complaining of the tough tasks and the intolerable life in the forest.”
Says another source, “Though the contestants were aware of the deadly tasks in the show they still chose to run away and said a big 'No' to these assignments. They are in the jungle but have left the sets and also denied to shoot further. It seems that only Palak and Shweta are the two brave hearts in the show who are ready to continue with the shoot.”
If readers recall a similar thing had happened almost a year back in Bigg Boss 2 when the show’s ratings had stagnated. The inmates had scaled the wall and tried to flee from the house. But soon they returned to continue with the reality show.
The last we heard on Iss jungle ...participants is that officials of the channel were trying to convince them and that the shoot was still on hold.
We sent a text message to Programming Head Gurdip Bhangoo but there was no reply.
