Bigg
Boss
17
Update:
After
Bigg
Boss
16
ended
in
February
this
year
with
MC
Stan
walking
away
with
the
winner's
trophy,
everyone
has
been
awaiting
the
launch
of
the
seventeen
season
and
their
wait
is
ending
in
just
a
few
weeks.
Hosted
by
Salman
Khan,
Bigg
Boss
17
is
set
to
premiere
on
Colors
TV
in
just
two
weeks
and
the
makers
are
trying
to
rope
in
an
interesting
set
of
contestants.
As
revealed
in
the
promos
of
BB
17,
the
much-awaited
season
will
test
contestants'
'dil,
dimag,
and
dum'.
As
reported
earlier,
the
show
will
see
couples
competing
with
singles
and
everyone
is
super-excited
to
see
their
favourite
celebrities
fighting
with
other
housemates
on
TV.
Amid
all
this,
recent
rumours
suggested
that
Harshad
Chopda
and
Pranali
Rathod's
Yeh
Rishta
Kya
Kehlata
Hai
co-star
Jay
Soni
is
confirmed
to
take
part
in
Bigg
Boss
17.
ALI
MERCHANT
TO
PARTICIPATE
IN
BIGG
BOSS
17?
While
an
official
announcement
is
still
awaited,
the
latest
reports
suggest
that
the
team
has
now
approached
another
actor
seen
in
Yeh
Rishta
Kya
Kehlata
Hai.
Well,
we're
talking
about
TV
star
Ali
Merchant
who
also
participated
in
Kangana
Ranaut
hosted
Lock
Upp.
Yes,
you
read
that
right!
According
to
a
Tellychakkar
report,
Ali
is
currently
in
talks
with
the
makers
of
Bigg
Boss
17.
Interestingly,
he
was
been
offered
the
show
in
previous
seasons
but
declined
it
for
various
reasons.
However,
the
actor
is
yet
to
confirm
the
same
and
it'll
be
interesting
to
see
if
things
will
work
out
between
them
or
not
this
time.
For
those
who
are
unaware,
Ali
Merchant
played
a
pivotal
part
in
Rajan
Shahi's
Yeh
Rishta
Kya
Kehlata
Hai
and
was
seen
as
Rituraj,
the
guy
opposite
Akshara
(Hina
Khan)
before
Naitik's
(Karan
Mehra)
entry.
He
later
re-entered
the
long-running
show
and
was
seen
in
grey-shade.
He
has
also
been
a
part
of
several
other
popular
shows
like
Saat
Phere:
Saloni
Ka
Safar,
Sadda
Haq,
and
Bandini.
