The contenders of Bigg Boss-3

After deciding to give Bigg Boss a real face in Amitabh Bachchan, the producers of popular TV reality show are busy finalising the contestants for its third season.

The show, full of sleaze, controversies and at times even short love stories, will see these celebrities fight for that elusive prize money.

As far as the inmates of Bigg Boss's house are concerned, whispers doing rounds suggest names like Adityaa Pancholi, Ajay Jadeja, Chunkey Pandey, Kamaal Khan, Mika, Fiza, Harshit Saxena, Deepika, Amit Duaa, Puneet Israni and Sherlyn Chopra.

While personalities like actor Adityaa Pancholi, cricketer-turned-actor Ajay Jadeja and actor Chunkey Pandey don't need an introduction, people know lawyer Fiza following her consecutive TV appearances on news channels and later also in a reality show owing to her closeness with a minister.

Kamaal Khan is a pseudo patriotic whose film Deshdrohi got a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. Singer Mika's Bollywood tunes are also selling like hot cakes but on small screen he is known for his controversies.

Harshit Saxena was a finalist on another reality show Voice Of India and is ready to experience the love-hate relationship with reality in Bigg Boss's bad house.

People knew Deepika as Ram's wife Sita, thanks to her grand TV serial Ramayan. She was literally worshipped and even voted to power, but now it's time to meet the Deepika behind the Sita façade.

People know Sherlyn Chopra for her bold appearances in movies. There are also TV star Amit Duaa known from serial Raja Ki Ayege Baraat and another reality show star Puneet Israni.
