‘Big F’ to go bolder in Season 2 on MTV and Voot
MUMBAI: The second season of Big F is all set to premiere on MTV and delves deeper into the psyche of Indian women to explore their hidden desires and gives them the confidence to break free from societal taboos and claim their desires and their bodies.
Actor Randeep Hooda is to host Big F Season 2 launching on 12 March at 7 pm. Hooda will be making his television debut with the show, which will also be available for viewers on Viacom18’s online platform Voot from 13 March 2017.
Viacom18 head youth and English Entertainment Ferzad Palia said, “With MTV Big F Season 1 we took a very bold step with stories of sexual liberation that we showcased and were appreciated for it. What we realized was, as a custodian of youth culture in the country, that MTV had immense power to bring about change – however small – in the way people thought about these things. Season 2 practically wrote itself. The society we live in is known for suppressing the voice of women, more so if they are talking about their desires. Through MTV Big F Season 2 we want to give more power to women and their desires. I am sure, through this season we will be able to change the way the society looks at women and their right to express their sexuality.”
MTV Big F season 2 will be give a voice to female sexuality, a beast that has long been silenced. It will be bring these sexually- liberating tales through tasteful representation on Indian television.
