Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 is almost one week old and now the house has got its second captain, TV actor Shanavas. Notably, Shanavas had earlier made headlines for his misogynistic statements questioning Gizele’s dressing. It would be interesting to note how things would unfold with Shanavas as the captain.

Shanavas is 2nd captain of Bigg Boss Malayalam 7

Shanavas has become the second captain of Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 after commoner contestant Aneesh who was the first captain of the latest season. Aneesh, who made misogynistic comments in the very launch episode, ended up at the receiving end of everyone’s ire. It is interesting to note that his successor captain Shanavas too had made disparaging remarks against fellow contestant Gizele, a model, commenting about her what he deemed to be her ‘inappropriate dressing’. Shanavas had nominated Gizele in the eviction round, citing that her dressing was not appropriate for Kerala culture. This comment had led to backlash for Shanavas, who otherwise has a decent fan following.

But for his Gizele dressing episode, Shanavas has had a better stint at the Bigg Boss house than other contestants such as Aneesh and Shaitya. Several contestants have said that he is a good listener. But some are of the opinion that he goes back on his statements, like how he did with Anumol's doctor issue. However Shanavas terms this as his game plan. With other contestants, including Aneesh, aiming to sabotage his position, it would be interesting to see how Shanavas perform as a captain. He defeated Abhisree and Binny to win the captaincy task.

Meanwhile, Bigg Boss host Mohanlal will attend the weekend episode, analysing how the housemates’ performance during the first week.
