Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 Promo on 'Pengalootty Paasam' sparks hilarious reactions from former contestants
As the countdown to Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 nears its end, the makers are pulling no punches with their promotional content. The latest promo, taking a cheeky dig at the much-criticized 'Pengalootty Paasam' (brother-sister bonding tactic), has become a talking point, not just among fans, but also among former contestants who seem to know exactly who the joke is on.
The promo subtly (or rather, not so subtly) mocks contestants who use emotional familial bonds to gain favor and sympathy in the game. With lines clearly hinting at past house dynamics, the video has stirred a wave of reactions on social media, especially from those who were part of similar gameplay strategies.
In the comment section of the promo,

, Sijo John, and Nandana were spotted playfully trolling each other, acknowledging the reference.
It all began with former contestant Resmin Bai, who tagged the trio and teasingly asked if they were enjoying the promo.
Nandana responded with a cheeky 'thank you,' while Sai Krishna wondered if these pointed promos would translate into actual interventions on the show, asking, 'Will
Mohanlal
finally teach a lesson this time?'
Adding to the banter, Sijo tagged Abhishek and Sibin, trying to figure out who the mysterious third character in the promo was, further fuelling speculation and laughs.

Even Sijo's wife Linu joined in the fun, taking a lighthearted dig at the so-called 'Ettayimaar' (elder brothers) club that the trio was previously criticized for being part of.
For context, in Season 6, both Sijo and Sai Krishna came under fire for allegedly showing favoritism toward Nandana during a key task, granting her special privileges that raised questions about fairness.
With the grand premiere of Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 set for tomorrow at 7 PM, it's clear the show is already delivering entertainment before even opening its doors. If the promos are anything to go by, fans can expect a bolder, more self-aware season with plenty of drama and unexpected turns.

That little detail created a buzz and shows just how close their support team really is. Bryan Shelton 'locked in' on Trinity Rodman's Washington Spirit comeback Ben Shelton's father, Bryan Shelton, is a former professional tennis player and now serves as Ben's coach. On August 3, 2025, Trinity Rodman made her much-anticipated return to action for Washington Spirit after missing several months due to a back injury sustained in mid‑April. Before the Spirit's match against the Portland Thorns that day, Bryan asked in the family group chat: 'Trinity playing on Channel 18, 12:30 or channel 26?'. Ben then posted a screenshot to his Instagram stories, writing: 'My pops locked in on Trins first game back'. Ben Shelton's post made it clear how excited his father was. Trinity Rodman had taken time off to recover, and during that break she had traveled Europe with Ben Shelton, cheering for him at his tennis tournaments. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Stylish New Mobility Scooters Available for Seniors (Prices May Surprise You) Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Search Now Undo Bryan didn't want to miss her first game back.

On July 7, she criticized commentators who repeatedly called her 'Tiffany' and brought up her estranged father, NBA great Dennis Rodman, during Shelton's matches. In Trinity Rodman's own words on Instagram: 'For those who don't know… my name is TRINITY not Tiffany.' 'For Ben's matches… my dad's not even in MY life. No need to bring him up during HIS matches… It's his and his loved ones' moment.'. That message came during Shelton's fourth‑round win over Lorenzo Sonego at Wimbledon, which advanced him into the quarterfinals. Throughout, Trinity showed steadfast support for Ben Shelton, balancing her own recovery and return with cheering him on at a Grand Slam event.

No permit, No performance: Church Street's impromptu gigs a thing of the past?
Church Street in Bengaluru has long been a hub of spontaneous cultural energy and impromptu street performances. However, with the recent detention of international performers and growing restrictions on unsanctioned gigs, the city's approach to public performances seems to be shifting. It's not without reason. As authorities take a harder look at crowd control and safety in public spaces, the question remains: can Bengaluru's most iconic street still be a space for free expression — or is the era of impromptu performances a thing of the past? What happened? Last week, German influencer Younes Zarou was briefly detained by Bengaluru police for filming a dance video on Church Street that drew a crowd. This incident wasn't isolated. It comes after another German TikToker, Noel Robinson, was detained days prior for holding a similar street performance. Earlier this year, even global pop icon Ed Sheeran had his surprise Church Street set cut short. Church Street off limits to street performers? Though Ed claimed he had approval, police denied it, citing the absence of clearance for using a microphone, security arrangements, and police approval. The incident occurred amid ongoing enforcement on Church Street, which last year, saw police evict street vendors and advise buskers against performing, Deepak Batavia explains. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo He adds, 'Church Street is a vibrant area, but it's also a 715-metre road. Because it's so narrow, one unexpected crowd can quickly become a safety hazard. ' Curbs imposed amid residential concerns According to Deepak Batavia, President of the Church Street Association, the curbs on performances on Church Street stem from residential grievances and safety concerns. 'We've had a lot of incidents; hospitals in the area faced significant trouble, residents' privacy was completely compromised, there were even fights. The street would be totally jam-packed. A court order was thus issued, and we have to abide by it,' he said, underscoring the police's legitimate crowd control concerns, a critical issue for Bengaluru, particularly after incidents like the RCB stampede. Church Street is a vibrant area, but it's also a 715-metre road. Because it's so narrow, one unexpected crowd can quickly become a safety hazard – Deepak Batavia, President of the Church Street Association We need better public spaces for artistes, musicians: City strategist Urban strategist Vinod Jacob believes the crackdown on gigs points to a larger issue — Bengaluru's lack of open, accessible performance spaces. He said, 'The need for public stages for artistes, musicians and painters is a must. In the past, dedicated venues regularly hosted gigs and live shows by freelance artistes. We also had playgrounds with built-in stages for public performances that didn't disturb anyone. We truly need more public spaces where artistes can perform freely. As a heritage and cultural capital of India, Bengaluru's traditional classical artistes also require these spaces to showcase their art. However, blocking traffic and performing on roads is unwarranted and not advisable.' What about Church Street's buskers? It isn't only international creators; local performers have faced pushback too. Neil Newton, an artiste and beatboxer who used to perform on Church Street, explains that he stopped busking following an encounter with the police. 'Unfortunately, under Indian law, busking falls under public nuisance. I remember an incident when a cop approached us while we were performing — we were a group of four and we'd just randomly started performing. The cop threatened to take us to the station if we didn't clear out in 30 seconds. That was the last time I busked. Busking was something I did for fun - I didn't want to cause any trouble,' he says, and notes, 'Today, Church Street has also became too chaotic and crowded, it's easy for things to get out of hand.'
