Dolly Bindra and Sameer Soni evicted from 'Bigg Boss'

Just hours after being issued a notice by the information and broadcasting ministry for airing explicit content, popular reality TV show Bigg Boss has evicted two participants, actors Dolly Bindra and Sameer Soni, for violent behaviour.

The two 'inmates' were evicted after they got into a fist fight, breaking the show's rules which prohibit physical violence, said sources in the channel Colors.

The eviction comes the same day that the information and broadcasting ministry asked the channel to move the show, hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, to a 11 pm slot from it's prime time 9 pm position.

Bindra, who had earned the ire of all her fellow participants with her abusive behaviour was having an argument with actress Shweta Tiwari, when Soni stepped in as peacemaker.

But the argument soon turned ugly and Soni and Bindra ended up exchanging blows, said the source.

The show has already come under fire from viewers and activists for it's content and TV bosses decided to evict the two for their behaviour.

Following the complaints, the ministry sent a notice to the channel saying that the show is not for universal viewing and can be aired only between 11 pm and 5 am.

The eviction comes the same day as Bay Watch bombshell Pamela Anderson entered the Bigg Boss house as a special guest.

Last year, contestant Kamal R Khan, became the first contestant in the show's history to be expelled for violent behaviour after attacking designer Rohit Verma with a bottle.

The show in it's fourth season sees celebrities locked up inside a mansion with cameras following their every move.

The show has been mired in controversy from the very beginning. The Shiv Sena and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena had demanded a ban on the reality show because of the participation of two Pakistani artistes, actress Veena Malik and TV host Begum Nawazish Ali.

Actor Ashmit Patel's display of affection towards Malik and TV actress Sara Khan had raised eyebrows and the inmates were often shown using abusive language.

Khan had married boyfriend Ali Merchant on the show recently and the two were shown kissing and cuddling up together on their wedding night.
