Sony Entertainment Television brings a reality show first time ever on Indian television. 'Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao, is an version of ITV Global Entertainment's format show I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! The show brings together 10 celebrities to face the eventual challenge – swapping a life of lavishness to stay alive in the Malaysian rain forests, in a bid to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.
The show which goes on air from July 13, 2009 is being shot in Malaysia's' oldest and largest Taman Negara Tropical Rain forest. Mini Mathur and Yudi are hosts of the show and the ten celebrity contestants who have dare to accept this grand challenge of living through the dangerous jungle life are Aakashh Deep Saigal, Aman Yatan Verma, Anaida, Fiza, Chetan Hansraj, Marc Robinson, Shweta Tiwari, Mona Vasu, Palak (Gurmeet Kaur) and IshQ Bector.
It's a deep-dense forest and our daring contestants will have to fend for themselves… live on insufficient ration, do risky tasks, live with the scary crawlies, come across the wild lives… all this under 24/7 scrutiny of the cameras. To make things a little more challenging, everyday, Monday to Thursday, one celebrity will have to take the dread Jungle Challenge, which involve overcoming a fear and collecting "Stars". The number of stars collected determines how much food the camp gets for the night. Apart from the Jungle Challenge, there is Celebrity Chest that they must find. You will see these celebrities live through hunger pangs, loneliness and boredom. Their struggle for survival, the grueling jungle and the fear of elimination will bring out never- seen- before personality traits in each one of the ten celebrity contestants.
On Monday, the phone lines open for viewers at home to call in or sms their votes in favor of their favorite celebrity, to keep them on the show. The phone lines will stay open until Thursday 12.00 pm. On Friday, the hosts will reveal the results of the voting, and the two celebrities with the least votes will have to go through the Maha Jungle Challenge to find a place in the camp.
