Bigg Boss is one of the most popular reality shows in India. The show has found success in many languages including Telugu. The Telugu version is now streaming its 10th season and it continues to still attract the attention of television audiences.

It is known fact that, In the first season of Telugu Bigg Boss, Jr NTR hosted the show. Nani became the host for the second season. From the third season onwards, Nagarjuna itself took charge as the host and continued to entertain audiences with his style. But an old video of Nagarjuna is now going viral on social media.

The video is from the promotions of the film Devadas in which Nagarjuna and Nani acted together. During the film's promotions, an anchor asked Nagarjuna about Nani hosting Bigg Boss. At that time, Nagarjuna was also associated with the television show Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu.

When the anchor brought up Bigg Boss, Nagarjuna said he don't won't to talk about Bigg Boss. Then the conversation then turned towards his opinion about the Bigg Boss concept. In the old video, Nagarjuna expressed his dislike for the concept of Bigg Boss. He explained that he was not comfortable with the idea of watching other people and getting entertainment from their personal situations. He compared the concept to gossiping and said that he did not like it.

Now this old video has once again become a topic of discussion on social media. Many people are sharing the clip and questioning Nagarjuna's decision to host the same show that he once said he did not like.

But the video is from an earlier period, and people are now discussing his past comments in the context of his long association with the Telugu version of Bigg Boss.

Bigg Boss has always received mixed reactions from audiences. While some viewers enjoy the tasks, entertainment and contestants' interactions, others criticise the show's concept and format.

But getting Nagarjuna’s old opinion now and relating it to his hosting makes no sense.Because Nagarjuna might have expressed his personal opinion and it doesn't always mean they in his profession he have to follow the same.
