Together, we've nurtured a tradition that the audience waits for with bated breath every year. Through format changes, digital shifts, new themes, and the ever-changing energy of the unpredictable house, this ride with COLORS has been special. Congratulations to the entire team at the channel for uniting India in entertainment for 17 years!" Television's most controversial and loved reality show, Bigg Boss, is all set to return with a new season. Traditionally aired in the latter half of the year, Bigg Boss is reportedly set for an early launch this time, possibly in July. If true, this would mark a significant shift from its usual September-October schedule and could lead to a longer-than-usual runtime, extending well into January 2026. Speculation suggests it might become one of the longest seasons ever, spanning up to six months. Adding fuel to the fire, several entertainment portals and social media accounts have been circulating a list of rumoured contestants. The names being floated include Lataa Saberwal, Apoorva Mukhija, Purav Jha, Neel Motwani, Arhan Ansari, Shashank Vyas, Khushi Dubey, Sharad Malhotra, Moon Banerjee, and TV couple Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor. In addition to the contestant rumours, there's also speculation that this season might be helmed not just by Salman Khan, but also by Karan Johar and Farah Khan, who may step in as guest hosts during Salman's absence. However, none of these developments have been confirmed by the makers of the show yet. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
