We hear Minissha Lamba did a lot of research before going into the Bigg Boss house. Besides watching all the episodes of season seven, the actress also managed to get a few tips from former contestant Pooja Bedi on how to deal with negative publicity and the kind of clothes to carry to the house. When contacted, Pooja said, “Yes, I gave her some survival tips as I have hosted a segment of the show during the second season and have participated in the fifth. I know the workings from behind the scene and within the house.“

Incidentally, Minissha had a wish list that she shared with the makers of the show before entering the house. Says a source, “Being an animal lover, she suggested if they could bring a dog in the house. She also felt that games should be supplied in the house. She felt that such things will make the atmosphere light and happy instead of tense.“ So, will her suggestions be implemented?
