Bigg Boss seems to be spelling big trouble in Kamal Haasan’s career. A fringe Hindu group has been attacking him for being “anti-Hindu”.

However, the star is enjoying himself too much to feel Bigg Boss is not his cup of (unfiltered) coffee? “Not at all! I am very happy to be hosting Bigg Boss. It is one of my biggest successes in recent times. And no, the protests have not taken away from the excitement of it at all.”

The channel Vijay TV’s TRPs have risen from 5.2 to 7.1. Chuckles Kamal, “All these numbers are music to my ears, especially since there is a constant attempt to pull the rug from under my feet ever since I started hosting the show.”

He adds, “I enjoy talking to the contestants. The people targeting me would find any reason to target me. In the past, it was my films Hey Ram and Vishwaroopam. Today, it is Bigg Boss. Tomorrow it will be something else. Bring it on.”
