Critic's Pen

The 10 celebrity contestants of show  Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao were air dropped into the Taman Negara jungles in Malaysia one of the oldest rain forests in the world so that they remain clueless about any entry/exit routes. The desi version of international show I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here airs on Sony from tonight. The person who survives till the end, wins a cool crore.

On Thursday, the participants met each other for the first time at the Carcosa Seri Negara in Kuala Lumpur. Chandigarh women Fiza and Palak have already bonded big time.

How they will live
For the next two months, they will sleep in the open on makeshift haversacks with jungle creatures for company. They will have to cook with firewood, wash and clean in running streams and have an open-air bath or fill tubs of water to bathe in a makeshift wooden bathroom and toilet. They will only be provided rice and soya beans everyday and will have to do physically enduring tasks to win a variety of food rations. This includes a Junglee Dinner that involves sticking your head into a bowl of leeches or scorpions to gather food rations.

What they will reveal
Sooner or later, the past catches up with you. So apart from tasks and their daily chores, they will gossip the highpoint of any reality show. So will Marc Robinson talk about ex flame Preity Zinta and Akashhdeep Saigal about Farah Khan? There is also the Aman Verma and the Ruchi reporter episode. Meanwhile Shweta, Palak and Fiza have their own stories to reveal.

Voice of reason
When emotionally or physically hurt, the participants can enter the Jungle Daak Ghar to air their grievances in front of the camera which will help them overcome their situation.

Work in progress
From the past several months, the channel has been putting big bucks into the show that is produced by the format owners ITV/Silverback along with the Alva Brothers’ Miditech Productions. Though the Malaysian authorities had plans of developing the place, it gave up its plans halfway. Now the spot is a beehive of activity with makeshift production offices, over a 100 crewmembers from several countries as well as miles of cables for the several hidden cameras.

Most of the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here series have been shot in the Australia outback, this is the first time it is being shot in Malaysia. As soon as the Indian show is over, the Swedish version will also be filmed there.
