The buzz for Bigg Boss 19 is building, with the first promo teasing a politics-themed season and a major contestant rumor featuring TMKOC actor Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal being debunked.
Jennifer Mistry Denies Bigg Boss 19 Approach
Rumors had been circulating that Jennifer Mistry Bansiwal, known for her role in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, would be joining Bigg Boss 19, possibly alongside her former co-star Gurucharan Singh.
However, Jennifer Mistry has exclusively clarified that these reports are untrue. She stated, “I have no idea about this. I was approached for the show last year. This year, I have not yet been approached.”
Inside the Bigg Boss 19 House: Fewer Contestants, Earlier Start
This season of Bigg Boss will kick off with 15 contestants. The house’s layout confirms this, with only 15 beds available and no double beds expected this time around. This is a slight shift from previous seasons, which sometimes started with more housemates.
Sources also reveal that the premiere date has been moved up. Originally set for August 30, the show will now begin earlier, around August 27, to avoid clashing with Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. Host Salman Khan is scheduled to shoot for the show on August 22nd and 23rd.
Viewers can expect three wild card entries to join later, and some ex-contestants might even make a return towards the end of the season, adding more spice to the already competitive environment.
A Political Twist: The Season’s Theme
The official promo hinted at a politics-themed season, and now we have more details. Contestants will reportedly be divided into two teams right from the start: the ‘ruling party’ and the ‘opposition’. This unique division will likely be decided through a fun activity with Salman Khan on stage during the premiere.
Each week, both parties will nominate one member to vie for the leadership role. The house’s ‘sarkaar’ (government) will be chosen through a ballot vote. The elected leader will wield significant power, assigning responsibilities not just within their own team but also to the opposition.
Leaders may also appoint ‘ministers’ for various house duties, like a kitchen or bedroom minister. Additionally, both teams will receive secret group or individual tasks, and successfully completing them will be crucial for earning their weekly ration.
Who’s Entering the House?
While official confirmations are still awaited, several names are being tossed around as potential contestants for Bigg Boss 19. Sreerama Chandra and Hunar Hali are reportedly confirmed. Gurucharan Singh is said to have been approached.
Other rumored participants include Aamir Ali, Mugdha Chapekar, Chandni Sharma, Niyati Fatnani, Amaal Mallik, and popular social media personalities like Mr. Faisu, Jannat Zubair, Apoorva Mukhija, and Gaurav Khanna. Rati Pandey and Dhanashree Verma are also on the speculated list.
