PETA had earlier penned a long note accusing Bigg Boss makers of torturing the animal wherein they believed that apart from confining him within a stable, they also described how they are often frightened by extensive lights and sounds coming from all directions. In the letter addressed towards Salman Khan, they appealed to his compassionate side, requesting him to consider the condition of animals as they requested him to keep all kinds of animals away from the reality show, further elaborating on their health and habitat issues.
Meanwhile, a host of celebrities have become a part of this year’s season of Bigg Boss which sees many television actors like Vivian Dsena, Chahat Pandey, Karan Veer Mehra, Alice Kaushik, Eisha Singh, among many others being a part of it.
