Format of Desi Girl on NDTV Imagine

NDTV Imagine's new reality show Desi Girl produced by BBC is really gonna be something interesting worth watching. The show seems like a dehati (rural) spin on Bigg Boss, in which the contestants are isolated from their daily life and communication and are made to live in a house together and under the vicinity of cameras 24 X 7. The show will require them to shun their glamourous celebrity lives and work towards winning the hearts of the villagers. And in the end, it is the villagers who will decide who their Desi Girl is.

Almost every daily soap today is set in a village. So, why not set a reality show there? That's why BBC and NDTV Imagine decided to shoot a reality show in a real village with actual villagers.
