Shiv Sena legislator demands ban on reality show Bigg Boss over ‘obscene’ content

A Shiv Sena legislator on Monday demanded that the telecast of the reality show “Bigg Boss” be stopped, claiming that a recent episode of the show had obscene content.

Manisha Kayande, who is also the spokesperson of the ruling Shiv Sena, led by Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde, met Mumbai Police Commissioner Vivek Phansalkar and made the demand, a release said.

Kayande said that the episode aired on July 18 showed a contestant Armaan Malik in a seemingly intimate moment with Kritika Malik under the covers in the Bigg Boss bedroom. “The couple trampled upon all boundaries of human relations and social norms,” she added.
