The entry of the Hollywood bombshell and the mob that welcomed her at the Mumbai airport made news in newspapers like the Guardian and New York Post.
Wall Street Journal is debating if the Baywatch babe is 'too much for Indian prime time' given the government labelling the show content 'objectionable' and giving it a virtual A certificate. British tabloids like the Daily Mail and Sun are following the 43-year-old's antics in the house - from her entry into it in a white saree to a sun bath with actor and self-confessed fan Ashmit Patel.
Anderson has been flown in to boost audiences for the fourth season of Bigg Boss, hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, which has caused scandals with onscreen relationships and verbal spats between participants.
The show reportedly got its highest TRPs the day Anderson entered the house, beating the record set by the viewing figures of rival Kaun Banega Crorepati, hosted by Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan.
The Playboy Playmate is reportedly getting 2.5 crore rupees (BD207,450) for her three-day stint in the house. Earlier, British actress and Playboy model Kelly Brook had been approached, but she turned down the offer.
Anderson is the second Western celebrity to appear on the show, late reality star Jade Goody starred in the 2008 series, only to leave soon after entering the house after receiving her cancer diagnosis from doctors.
With the Bombay High Court staying the ministry's directive to reschedule the show's timing, Anderson's antics are now part of Indian TV's prime time.
