The preparations for the first season of Bigg Boss Tamil are underway at a brisk pace. With a little over a month left for its airing, Vijay TV has now released a promo from the Kamal Haasan-hosted show.

The actor is seen wearing a pair of specs in the clip as he says, "Bigg Boss, I will be watching".

This is Kamal Haasan's first gig as an anchor and he decided to take up the challenge as he likes to keep himself updated, he said in an interview recently. The Universal Star understands the format and he has also watched the Hindi version of Bigg Boss.

According to Kamal Haasan, he liked Salman Khan more than Amitabh Bachchan, who hosted the third season. 

Sources say Bigg Boss Tamil will start airing from June 18. The show will be aired between 9 and 10 pm on Vijay TV, and the weekend special shows will be kick-started by Kamal Haasan at 8.30 pm. [Watch the promo below]

The house is being erected in Chennai which is said to be bigger than the one used for the Hindi version in Lonavala. The contestants will be provided with all amenities, but no newspapers, mobile or laptops.

The contestants will have to survive in the house completely disconnected from the outside world for 100 days. The format is a success in Hindi and Kannada, hosted by Salman Khan and Sudeep respectively.
