In August 2025, the country’s most-watched social experiment returns—Bigg Boss 19. This season promises not just entertainment but a battlefield of power, alliances, and betrayal.
Fifteen celebrities walk into the house—a mix of household TV faces and viral digital sensations. Gaurav Khanna (1M followers on Instagram), loved for Anupamaa. He is best known for playing Senior Inspector Kavin in CID and Anuj Kapadia in Anupamaa, for which he won the Indian Telly Award for Best Actor.
Therefore, Gaurav joins the youthful spark of Ashnoor Kaur. Also, social media icons Awez Darbar (who has 30M Instagram followers) and Nagma Mirajkar bring their massive fan armies, while reality show veterans Baseer Ali and Abhishek Bajaj prepare to test their survival instincts.
Furthermore, almost 15-17 actors who are going to rock the show. However, an exciting new thing is Mike Tyson coming to Bigg Boss for the first time. He had worked in Bollywood before this in Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004). Let’s know the full list.

Bigg Boss 19: Power, Politics & Primetime Drama
But the twist is sharper than ever: the Bigg Boss House splits into two factions — a ruling party and an opposition. In this political theater, strategies matter as much as emotions, and every nomination could feel like a parliamentary debate.
The audience holds the final card—you get to vote between Mridul Tiwari and Shehbaz Badesha to crown the 16th contestant, shaping the story before it even begins.
Catch the premiere live on JioHotstar at 9:00 PM IST, followed by the Colors TV broadcast at 10:30 PM IST.
And for those still buzzing from Bigg Boss 18’s grand finale, where Karan Veer Mehra lifted the trophy on January 19, 2025—this new season raises the stakes even higher. Salman Khan returns with his trademark wit, nostalgia lingers from his Andaz Apna Apna act with Aamir Khan, and fans are already debating whether this cast can produce a phenomenon like the late Sidharth Shukla.
Bigg Boss 19 isn’t just a show. It’s a mirror to our society—raw, unfiltered, and impossibly addictive.
