It seems like the showrunners are going all the way out to cash in on the growing popularity of Bigg Boss Tamil. In a first, the producers have released a virtual reality video, where we have the show’s superstar host Kamal Haasan giving the viewers a guided tour of the lavish Bigg Boss house in Chennai. What’s more entertaining in the VR tour is the skit, performed by Kamal.
Kamal plays multiple roles in the sketch while giving us the tour of the house. With his sharp wit and a solid sense of humor, the versatile actor makes the virtual stay of the viewers in the house an enjoyable experience. As he speaks with identical characters, he also breaks down the basic rules of the house for the viewers. And he even gets the virtual guest imprisoned for stepping inside the ladies’ bedroom. “I am ‘nangooram’ (anchor) I can go anywhere in the house. But you can’t,” he complains.
“This doesn’t look like a real prison. It doesn’t even have a fan,” he quips while releasing the guest out of prison.
