Who are expected to join Bigg Boss 20?
The makers have been dropping promos to tease the show’s contestants, one of whom is expected to be Badshah’s estranged wife, Isha Rikhi. A new promo for Bigg Boss 20 revealed that actor-politician Manoj Tiwari’s daughter, Rhiti Tiwari, will be one of the contestants.
Faisal Khan, Aamir Khan’s brother, Karan Wahi’s ex Uditi Singh, Kushal Tanwar, Qazi Touqeer, Yung DSA, Rhea Chakraborty’s brother Showik Chakraborty, and Khushi Dubey are some of the names circulating. Even boxing legend Mary Kom’s name has been brought up as one of the rumoured contestants.
About the Bigg Boss house
The Season 20 house is built around the idea of duality, bringing together elements that normally would not belong in the same space. Familiar objects have been given unusual twists, creating a house that feels colourful, lively and a little out of the ordinary. The house has been designed this season, taking inspiration from the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland.
Room No. 20 adds another layer of mystery to the new Bigg Boss house. The space has been kept under wraps for now, with its surprise set to be revealed only as the season progresses. It gives viewers one more detail to watch out for once the contestants step into the house and the game begins.
Bigg Boss 20 theme
In the trailer, Salman introduced the season’s central twist, saying, “Bigg Boss mein milega, meri jaan… extra jeevan daan (You’ll get an extra lease on life in Bigg Boss, my dear),” before signing off with his trademark “Tathas-two”. Salman opened up about the new theme and hinted that the extra lease on life may not be as straightforward as it sounds. The actor said, “The game in Bigg Boss changes every year. This time, it’s not just the game that’s changing, but the way it is played as well. ‘Jeevan Daan’ isn’t as straightforward as it sounds. As for the rest—well, you’ll find out once inside the house.”
Speaking about the season, Alok Jain, Head Hindi & English Entertainment Business, JioStar (Streaming, TV & Studios) said in a statement, “Twenty seasons is a landmark milestone for any entertainment franchise, and for Bigg Boss Hindi, it is a celebration of a journey that has continued to evolve with every season. As we enter this milestone chapter, we wanted to reimagine the game and raise the stakes in a way that feels fresh, unexpected and exciting for both contestants and audiences.”
