Trupti Desai, social activist and founder of Bhumata Brigade (Mumbai-based organisation) who led the fierce campaign for women’s rights to enter temples is now going to participate in Bigg Boss’ season 10. The avid women’s rights activist have mentioned that she is ready to participate in Big Boss 10 only if the voice of Big Boss is replaced by a female’s voice.
Desai believes that Bigg Boss would be a good platform to promote gender equality.
Since its inception, a male voiceover has been used for the “Bigg Boss”.
“Since there are several campaigns on various issues lined up in next few months, it would be very hard to stay in the house for a long time. However, the show is a good platform to spread our message about equality”, she said. Colors TV has yet to announce the names of the contestants for the 10th season of the show, which is hosted by Bollywood actor Salman Khan.

Shani Shingnapur Temple in Maharashtra, where women were not allowed to perform in sanctum sanctorum had to end the centuries old ban after the high voltage campaign by Desai. As we all know, this year the makers of the show have planned to have common people on board alongside celebrities. Because that’s the only condition Trupti has put to come on board. The show’s format keeps participants locked inside a house for three months with no access to the outside world.
