STR is Bigg Boss Host - follow up to STR aka Simbhu - Sarathkumar- Aravind Swamy probable's to host Bigg Boss

 

Latest promo confirms that STR is the host that will step in to the shoes of Kamal Haasan in Bigg Boss Ultimate Tamil. Literally as it goes, STR ties the shoe lace and wears the blazer to turn to the camera and say Did not expect it ? Me Too Lets us meet.

From the list of shortlisted celebrity list that Disney Hotstar has put up, STR aka Simbhu might sign on the dotted line and

start promo shoot for coming weekend of Bigg Boss Ultimate Tamil, says sources. STR is said to have a very close relationship with Star Vijay, the arm of Star Network that works in tandem with Disney Hotstar.  However, Dhanush who is said to have a cold war with STR is among the actors who has bagged the most number of Star Vijay awards ( 7 awards). The position of host held by Kamal Haasan being inherited by STR and the participation money ( Rs 50 lakhs for a single appearance  was given to Kamal) could be a factor for STR to take it up says sources. For the channel, STR who is riding the wave of popularity after Maanaadu success  would be able to bring in the youth and the fan base to the show. STR is away shooting for last leg of Gautham Menon directed film.

Sarathkumar had come in Bigg Boss 5 as a guest for a episode and interacted with the contestants. He left a brief case of Rs 15 lakh as a bait for a contestant to take it and quit the contest. He might be called in to do the main host . In the last poll, his party was aligned with Kamal's political outfit and both drew a blank.

Aravind  Swamy name is mentioned as he had hosted a show Season 3 of Neengalum Vellalam Oru Kodi ( Tamil KBC) on same channel . In fact before Kamal Haasan became host it was Swamy whose name was said in TV circles as the host.

Prakash Raj who has also hosted  KBC  Tamil show  and Kamal along with his live in partner Gauthami had taken part and the episode sent TRP soaring. Ramya Krishnan had  stood in for Kamal in previous BB season after the actor was taken sick due to COVID infection. She had judged the BB Jodi show on Vijay and had a spat with Vanitha Vijayakumar ( one of house mates of that season and now a contestant in Ultimate ). Promos will start soon.
