Bigg Boss 4: WWE champ Khali a guest for a few days in Bigg Boss house

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

The WWE champion, also known as The Great Khali who entered the Bigg Boss 4 house (Reality Show aired on Colours) amidst much fanfare and media hype may not stay in the Bigg Boss house for very long. According to our sources, Khali has been brought in as a wild card entry to combat the negativity and criticism centered around the show due to the presence of two Pakistani citizens. Khali’s stay is for a limited period and he may leave the house (on some pretext or the other) in about a week to ten days, we were told. Bigg Boss may or may not mention the fact that Khali is just a temporary guest at the time of his exit. Instead, a situation may be created wherein Khali has to leave the house, making it sound like a normal exit due to personal reasons.

Meanwhile, the WWE champ, Khali entered the Bigg Boss 4 house on Saturday. He was provided with a special break fast by the Bigg Boss, which included extra milk and 20 pieces of eggs.

The champ entered the house with great pomp. Rahul Bhatt a great fan of the WWE champ couldn't believe his eyes after seeing The Great Khali. While the other inmates were horrified with the huge mans entry, Rahul was more than happy to see his idol in front of him.

Rahul introduced him to all the members of the house and helped him to get familiar with the environment. Rahul seemed to know everything about Mahabali Khali. Khali was also impressed with Rahul's fitness and complimented him for it. Rahul also got a chance to exercise with his idol.

Khali was a sub-inspector in Punjab and later on became a superstar in the world of WWE. He has however not forgotten his humble roots and is down-to-earth and very modest.

Meanwhile, Khali is having all kinds of problems adjusting to the difficulties inside the house. One major problem that he faced was with the gym equipment inside the house. Apparently, the equipment inside the Bigg Boss house was just not what he was used to. So, when Salman Khan, the host of the show, learnt about his plight, he immediately ordered his personal gym equipment which was at at his farmhouse to be shifted there.

Bigg Boss 4 Exclusive: Khali gets special food secretly in the confession room

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network


Well Bigg Boss has several cameras inside the Bigg Boss house. But we have our secret spy cams too.... and what did we see in our secret camera feed this morning. The great Khali is being fed separately in the confession room. He is also provided with protein shakes, protein supplements and loads of other goodies like chicken, eggs, milk etc to meet his dietary requirements. According to our special Bigg Boss correspondent, embedded right inside the Bigg Boss house, Khali is fed a couple of times a day and that footage is either not available or the cameras are switched off or the footage if available is not aired.

Our sources also tell us that Khali has a special contract with Bigg Boss which permits him to come out of the house secretly and even exercise or do medical checkups to ensure his body is fighting fit.


We had earlier reported that WWE champion, also known as The Great Khali who entered the Bigg Boss 4 house (Reality Show aired on Colours) amidst much fanfare and media hype is being paid about Rs 40 lakh per week or approximately Rs 5 lakh each day he stays in the Bigg Boss house, making him the highest paid Bigg Boss inmate till date in the history of the popular TV Reality Show in India. While Colours or Endemol would not officially confirm these figures, sources within the channel said that Khali was making close to Rs 40 to Rs 50 lakh per week. He was given a down payment of Rs 50 lakh which is over and over the weekly payment.


Participants or inmates are normally paid an upfront amount or a signing amount and then they are paid additionally per week they survive in the Bigg Boss house. The signing amount ranges from Rs 2 to Rs 25 lakh depending on the popularity and market rate of the individual. The weekly payment ranges from Rs one lakh to Rs 3 lakh per week, say sources and can go up to Rs 5 lakh per week for certain individuals like Manoj Tiwari or Shweta Tiwari.


However, Khali may not stay in the Bigg Boss house for very long. According to our sources, Khali has been brought in as a wild card entry to combat the negativity and criticism centered around the show due to the presence of two Pakistani citizens. Khali’s stay is for a limited period and he may leave the house (on some pretext or the other) in about a week to ten days, we were told. Bigg Boss may or may not mention the fact that Khali is just a temporary guest at the time of his exit. Instead, a situation may be created wherein Khali has to leave the house, making it sound like a normal exit due to personal reasons.

Bigg Boss 4: Clairvoyant Flintoff Mintoff says after Begum Nawazish Ali, Veena Malik will be out of Bigg Boss House.



By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network


Now that cross dresser Saleem Ali, also known as Begum Nawazish Ali is out of the Bigg Boss house, our in-house Astrologer, Tarot Reader, Feng-Shui expert, Numerologist and clairvoyant-par-excellence Flintoff Mintoff has predicted that Veena Malik will be the next inmate to be evicted out of the Bigg Boss House.

For some reason, if there is no nomination or eviction this week or by some twist of fate, if Pakistani actress Veena Malik survives one more week, she is definitely going to be evicted the following week, pontificated Mintoff.

As reported earlier, according to a very senior official from the very-popular GEC Colours, the two Pakistani inmates Veena Mallik and Begum Nawazish Ali are likely to be eased out of the Bigg Boss, Season 4 house in the next 2-3 weeks. This is part of a top-secret pact worked out between Colours channel and the Shiv Sena leadership in Mumbai.

According to our reliable and confidential sources within the channel, the GEC Colours has assured the top Shiv Sena leadership that they didn’t mean any harm or were not being unpatriotic in any way. Instead they wanted to create hype and buzz nationwide about the coming season of Bigg Boss 4, including the non-Hindi speaking belt in the south. This was only possible with some ingenious controversy which would give them the required media space in regional and national news papers. So the two Pakistani citizens were roped in. When the Shiv Sena blocked out the channel Colours in Mumbai, using its muscle power with its own distributors and cable operators affiliated to unions controlled by the Shiv Sena, pressure from advertisers like Vodafone, etc., forced Colours to come to the negotiating table. Since the Shiv Sena would not accept anything short of throwing out the Pakistanis, the channel asked the Sena bosses for some time to do it the natural way and hence save face and possible litigation and compensation complaints from the ousted participants.

Accordingly it was secretly agreed between the Sena top bosses and Colours that the Pakistanis would be eased out in the next two weeks. After an assurance was given by the Channel to this effect, the agitation was called off and the block was lifted.

The Bigg Boss creative team will modify the script, change the rules of the game without appearing to do so, or find creative and natural-like means to evict both the Pakistani citizens, so that it looks like they were evicted through a fair and normal voting process. The trick would be to nominate Veena Malik along with two strong Indian inmates. The two Indian inmates like Shweta Tiwari or Manoj Tiwari or Ashmit Patel, etc will have a strong fan-following ensuring that they get enough votes through the SMS voting system to save them from eviction, leaving the lone Pakistani inmate to get kicked out.

Well, well we didn’t say this. This is not our opinion or theory. We are not alleging that spot fixing or outcome fixing or whatever happens in Bigg Boss or any other Reality Shows. We know that such reality shows are audited by international consulting firms and adhere to the strictest norms of impartiality. We are just telling you what clairvoyant and Tarot Reader Flintoff Mintoff has predicted. Tsk... Tsk...

SHRADHA SHARMA: "SHWETA TIWARI WAS SLEEPING AROUND AND EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT"

battle royale erupts as Television's leading ladies go for each other in a devil-may-dare rip-off...

The sexy yet cute actress Shradha Sharma who was last seen on the Reality Show Emotional Atyachaar with her boyfriend Raja Chaudhary has stirred a hornets nest.It’s the mother of all battles. In a hard-hitting interview to the leading TV magazine GR8, in a four-page interview Shradha Sharma talks about her relationship with Raja Chaudhary and the other men in her life.


In the ballastic, devil-may-dare interview, Shradha Sharma has openly accused television star Shweta Tiwari of “sleeping around”. When asked why Raja Chaudhary ill-treated his ex-wife Shweta Tiwari, Shradha says very matter-of-factly, “Shweta was sleeping around and everybody knows that, that’s what he (Raja Chaudhary) said. So being a man till when can you take all this”.

Shweta used to send goondas to the flat at Malad (in suburban Mumbai) where Raja Chaudhary was staying – obviously to threaten him and make him vacate the flat, Shradha reveals in the interview, adding that she has never met Shweta Tiwari and does not want to ever meet her.

ABHISHEK AWASTHI LOOKS LIKE A GAAV KA BHAIYA AND EVEN TALKS LIKE ONE

Shradha also talks about her involvement with Abhishek Awasthi – Rakhi Sawant’s former boyfriend. “I was never interested in him. I liked him as a friend. He was after me all the time. Wooing me with flowers, chocolates and even wine bottles. He once tried to get me drunk. If you like Shradha Sharma, you must have the balls to accept and admit it. He told me he doesn’t like Rakhi. He used to say that Rakhi ill-treated him and considered him as a servant or a door-mat,” says Shradha in the bold interview.

BOLLYWOOD BADSHAH SALMAN KHAN A GREAT FAN OF BIGG BOSS??

By Frank Franklyn – Futuristic Media Network


A special jasoos tells us that Bollywood badshah Salman Khan is a great fan of a particular television reality show. Now you don’t have to be a PhD in Bollywood entertainment to guess which TV show is catching Sallu miyas attention these days. It’s none other than Bigg Boss. And no points for guessing why. How can we forget that Sallu’s ‘special friend’ Claudia Ciesla is in Bigg Boss and the popular reality show has just entered its last phase now?

Our source tells us that once the show goes on air each evening, Sallu bhaiya tries to catch up wherever he is. If not, he will try to get the late night edition or will try to find out the outcome of the day from friends. And Fridays and Mondays – the eviction and nomination days respectively - are very special. Bollywood’s favourite star and heart-throb of millions of women the world over, will do everything to be in front of a TV set on Fridays and Mondays. We tried to ask Salman about his sudden interest in Bigg Boss, but all that he did was give us one of his trillion-dollar shy smiles. Ok Sallu bhaiya we get the point. We will leave you to your TV set at least on Fridays and Mondays.

Meanwhile, the sexy, cute super model from Germany Claudia Ciesla may soon be seen as a cold-blooded killer in the brutal Raaj Varma Entertainment thriller movie THE LUCKY 13TH. According to our sources, Claudia Ciesla’s role in the movie will demand her to brutally kill at least two people to survive as per the script of the movie.

While Claudia Ciesla may be locked away in the Bigg Boss house at Lonavla, a little birdie from Bollywood tells us that the 22-year-old German super model is soon expected to be seen in - as director Praveen Dodeja puts it – “the scariest movie ever made in India”.

Yes we are talking about the Praveen Dodeja directed; Raaj Varma Entertainment produced film THE LUCKY 13TH. Confirming this development Claudia Ciesla’s spokesperson and Executive Producer of THE LUCKY 13TH Flynn Remedios said, “Claudia Ciesla will most probably be a part of this project. We are trying to work things out as this is a big project and Claudia’s presence would add a twist to the story.”

While neither the director nor the Executive Producer were willing to share further details about the film, sources told us that The Lucky 13th will indeed be the scariest movie ever made in India. It is pregnant with blood and gore and is definitely a very, if not the most brutal film ever made. In the film THE LUCKY 13TH produced by Raaj Varma Entertainment, 13 young people all mysteriously inter-connected with each other find themselves in a desolate fort in the middle of no-where. A sinister fight to survive and get out of the place by killing the others is unleashed on the hapless 13 who have no choice but to heed the diktak of the evil monster. Only one will survive the ordeal, but not before he or she has brutally done to death the rest of the gang. The film stars German super model Claudia Ciesla (currently locked up in the Bigg Boss House, TV actor Swapna Tiwari, Jennifer besides 10 others.

In the film 13 people – all connected to each other through an online game – are stuck in an abandoned Fort in the middle of nowhere. The 13 people chosen by a devilish and sinister entity are some of the best players of the game and have scored the highest points while killing the enemy in the online game. They all find themselves locked in a Fort and the only way to save their own lives is to KILL the other.

Actress Sapna Sikarwar who has done several short films and TV serials is slated to play the main lead in the film says our sources while Claudia Ciesla will enact the second female lead. According to Flynn Remedios, this is the first time a film in this genre is being made in India, While horror films are common, a film with replete with loads of brutality, violence and gore hasn’t been ever done before in Bollywood.

Do you know that German super model Claudia Ciesla has probably worn and modelled in more Indian saris or to be specific style of draping the Indin saree than any other Indian model residing in India?


According to Claudia Ciesla’s spokesperson Flynn Remedios, CC as she is known to her friends has worn and posed for photo sessions, print catalogues and the like in the Benarasi, Rajasthani, Marwari, Maharashtrain (koli), Bengali, Kashmiri, Lucknowi and you name it sarees.


Says Flynn Remedios showing us about 100-odd photos of Claudia Ciesla draped in varying styles,”Claudia Ciesla loves wearing the saree. She has modelled and worn more than ten different saree types or forms in the last 4-6 months alone – probably more than any other Indian model has. Her favourite is the Benarsi saree. Claudia owns about 20 varieties of sarees and loves to wear them to parties in Germany, shocking her friends when they stumble upon the fully-clad stunner.”

Claudia Ciesla adds oomph and value to the saree and can put to shame any other Indian model or actress when it comes to carrying off a saree at a fashion pageant, explains her publicist.

CLAUDIA CIESLA: BRINGING INDIAN AND EUROPEAN TELEVISION CLOSER














Super model’s presence in Reality Show Bigg Boss sparks off a series of articles and interest in Indian television in the European press

Popular supermodel Claudia Ciesla gets Channel Colours a few million new viewers from Europe.



By Frank Franklyn – Futuristic Media Network


When Endemol India and the channel Colours decided to sign on German supermodel Claudia Ciesla for the third season of their very popular show Bigg Boss, maybe they didn’t realise that Claudia – who is a very popular ramp and fashion model in Germany and the rest of Europe – would become some sort of a brand ambassadress for Indian Television.



Knowingly or unknowingly, Colours as a brand has ensured that its reach has spread to Europe and Germany for sure. Says Claudia Ciesla’s manager in Germany Gergor Kaden, “A lot of people in Germany have begun watching the channel Colours thanks to Claudia as she is very popular as a model, singer and fashionista out here. While the channel would have otherwise been an unknown entity among the common man in places like France, Germany, Italy, Poland, etc., Claudia’s presence and persistence in Bigg Boss has sparked off a flurry of media activity.” In the last six months, there must have been about 2-3 articles on Indian television, but the last two months has seen about 8-10 stories on the ‘booming Indian television market’.



Claudia Ciesla’s Indian publicist Flynn Remedios – himself a senior journalist and Media Analyst says: “While Bollywood and Bollywood movies were discussed and have been mentioned time and again in the European press and media, in the last two months, thanks to Claudia Ciesla’s ongoing stint in the popular Reality Show Bigg Boss, Indian Television shows have become the apple of the European media’s eye. At least 8-10 articles have appeared in the mainline European print media in the last one month alone,” explains Flynn, adding that one of the biggest German (and European) papers BILD has published two articles on Bigg Boss and Indian television shows in the last one month itself.



“A prestigious eco-political magazine FOCUS has also written about Indian Television. Local newspapers in Germany, Poland (from where Claudia originally hails) and Baveria (where she currently stays) have also run articles on Reality Shows in India,” adds Flynn Remedios displaying the clippings of these articles. “It’s not just the tabloid press or the entertainment media that’s suddenly taking additional interest in India. It’s also the business, commercial and financial media. Analytical articles have appeared on the advertising potential, the reach, etc of Indian channels like Colours. Even the quality of Indian TV programming and software has come under scrutiny with the latter coming out in a very positive and encouraging way,” explains Remedios. “Indian TV shows, their packaging, presentation, style, concept, publicity strategy and the works are now being discussed in detail in the European trade media,” informs Flynn Remedios, who tracks the international media with an eagle’s eye for his clients.

Another media analyst and entertainment journalist, Rejane Coelho opines that Claudia Ciesla’s participation has bridged Indian television with the mainline European media.

“It’s not just the print media in Germany and Europe, even local television channels have run clips and footage of the Indian version of Bigg Boss regularly, showcasing Claudia Ciesla’s performance – something which they probably would not have done if she was not in the show. She could barely speak a few words in Hindi when she very bravely went into the Bigg Boss house,” says Remedios, who was responsible for Claudia Ciesla’s media strategy, branding and imaging in India.


“Even I was worried. How would Claudia cope? How would she manage when her culture, customs, diet and lifestyle are so very different?” But Claudia Ciesla the fighter has managed to stick on for almost ten weeks, when others like Sherlyn Chopra with a much greater fan following were evicted in the first phase of the show itself.” Between Greg and myself, we had given her 6-8 weeks, says Remedios, but she has really done well for herself.

“When the show went on air, some of my media friends and even editors said Claudia Ciesla was a bimbette and kinda dumb. But that was a well-thought of strategy to lie low and stick around,” adds Remedios whose strategy has probably helped his client do what other Indian actresses like Sherlyn Chopra (co-incidentally his former client) failed to comprehend. Keeping a low profile, lying low was a rehearsed strategy. Claudia Ciesla is otherwise a very aggressive woman with fire in her belly, says Remedios.

CLAUDIA CIESLA PRAYED AT THE GOLDEN TEMPLE, AMRITSAR AND SIDDHIVINAYAK TEMPLE AT MUMBAI BEFORE ENTERING BIGG BOSS













By Ashwin Salian – Futuristic Media Network
German supermodel Claudia Ciesla who is an ardent follower of Hinduism and always carries a Ganesha with her, had visited several temples in India and even offered prayers and gifts at the Golden Temple – a shrine that she is very fond of – her manager Flynn Remedios revealed in an interview to a Bengali newspaper. She had even attended a Dandiya programme and offered prayers to Goddess Kali, the report mentions.


Apparently, Claudia Ciesla who is very religious by nature, after her conversion to Hinduism has even tried to abstain from Non-Vegetarian food and alcohol. She has even stopped consuming wine. She was very keen on visiting certain places of worship before she could be locked up for three months and insisted that her publicist take her to the Siddhivinayak Temple at Prabhadevi and the Walkeshwar Temple both in Central Mumbai. She even paid a secret visit to the Dargah at Haji Ali - just hours before she left for the Fariyas Hotel at Lonavla prior to entering the Bigg Boss entrance event which was held at the Amby Valley - seeking the blessings of the Almighty, says her publicist. She went disguised at all the places, as her contract with the Channel Colours and the Production House Endemol forbid her from being seen or spotted in public.


So intense was her devotion that the day she arrived from Germany, she went to her hotel changed into Indian wear, disguised herself with a wig and immediately drove with her Indian manager and another friend to the Siddhivinayak Mandir at Prabhadevi where she stood in a queue for almost one hour to get a darshan of Ganeshji -all this after spending more than 16 hours in an airplane.

Claudia Ciesla: Stunt Woman in a Stunt plane



















for more pics of Claudia Ciesla doing her stunt plane stunt thing CLICK HERE

By Rejane Coelho – Futuristic Media Network

Super model and Hollywood actress Claudia Ciesla has many firsts to her credit. She is one of the first firangi models to be awarded the Karamveer Puraskaar in India for her social activism and involvement. She is also the first foreign model to make it to the Bigg Boss house. Last year, (the now late) Jade Goody – a foreigner - was invited almost as a special guest of host Shilpa Shetty to the Bigg Boss house. This was primarily because of Shilpa Shetty’s interaction with Goody during her stint at Bigg Brother and the participation of Goody had a different agenda alltogether. But Claudia’s participation in Bigg Boss makes her the first foreigner to enter a well-known Reality Show in India all on her own, should we say merit.

While all these are commendable ‘firsts’ for the 21-year-old natural blonde, what many of us do not know is that Claudia Ciesla is a professional stunt plane pilot. She has an amateur pilots flying license and has been flying stunt planes as a stunt plane co-pilot for the last two years – whenever she has the time that is out of her modelling, ramp and fashion shows, says her publicist Flynn Remedios. And her e are the photographs that Flynn Remedios gave us to prove his claim. Claudia has also flown F-16s and other military aircraft at air shows in Germany. Of course the F-16 she flew was a modified version without any military entrapments. The planes didn’t carry any weapons, but never-the-less was an F-16s all right.

Coming back to her social work, Claudia Ciesla was awarded the prestigious Karmaveer Puraskaar Award by iCongo on 26th November. iCongo is the confederation of NGOs and the apex body representing major NGOs in India and the Khemka Foundation with partners like TISS, BCCI, NASSCOM, etc.

Last year Kajol was the recipient of the same award and Claudia Ciesla joins the elite group of Bollywood personalities including Rahul Bose, to be recognised for their contribution to society and their efforts to “make a change”. The award was accepted on her behalf by her spokesperson and manager in India, Flynn Remedios as Claudia Ciesla is locked up in the Bigg Boss house – a very popular reality show on the GEC Colours.

The Karmaveer Puraskaar, is iCONGO’s National People’s Award for Social Justice and Action that honours concerned citizens who have been and led the change they wanted. In the past, Ad guru and social activist Alyque Padamsee , Dr Leo Rebello, Rahul Bose, Remo Fernandes, M S Swaminathan (Father of the Green Revolution in India) have been recipients of the Karmaveer Puraskaar.
