India’s TV show Bigg Boss Season 8 is doing pretty well. These days it is one of the most watched programmes across the subcontinent. Now here comes the dhamaka news: Bigg Boss bigwigs are in talks with the agents of none other than that American bombshell personified Kim Kardashian (who is again in the news for all the reasons she is famous for). This means, if she says yes, she’ll be appearing in one or two episodes of the ongoing season and tease the participants of the show in more ways than one. According to various sources she will be paid a whopping sum of Rs5 crores for it.

Hmm… so after censoring the scenes not complying with PG 13 certificate, there’s a chance that the Kardashian episodes might run for a maximum of 20 minutes, if you know what I mean.
