What Did TVK Leader Say About ‘Bigg Boss Tamil 9’?

TVK's leader and MLA Velumurugan called out Bigg Boss Tamil 9 for airing obscene scenes on national television, including kissing and bedroom scenes. He said, "The script writers don't care if the Tamil community suffers any harm. They are running the program on the basis that money is the most important."

Criticising the show's content, Velumurugan said, "Bigg Boss is showing activities that is targeting Tamil culture and tradition and is trying to destroy the future of students. Disgusting body moments, kissing scenes and bedroom scenes which cannot be viewed in the presence of a mature girl or children. They have only held back from showing sexual intercourse." ‘Bigg Boss Tamil 9’: Prajean, Sandra Amy, Divya Ganesh and Amit Bhargav Enter Vijay Sethupathi’s Reality Show As Wildcards, Shake Up the House With Reality Checks to Fellow Housemates.
