Get ready for a revolution in reality television! Bigg Boss 19, also known as Bigg Boss: Iss Baar Chalegi Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar, is here, and it's set to redefine the game. Premiering on August 24th, 2025, across JioHotstar and Colors TV, this nineteenth season is all about empowering the contestants. And who better to guide us through this political arena than our beloved Salman Khan, hosting for a remarkable sixteenth time!
The buzz is already electrifying! Promotional clips have dropped, showcasing a star-studded lineup. We've seen Gaurav Khanna, the "audience ka favourite beta," dancing to "Main Hoon Na," promising a spice-filled season. Awez Darbar and Nagma Mirajkar are bringing the heat with a couple's dance, raising the question: will love lead to rule or rivalry? And Amaal Mallik, with his soulful rendition of "Kaun Tujhe Yun Pyar Karega," is all set to conquer hearts and build his own "Sarkaar."
But the excitement doesn't stop there! Teasers feature Neelam Giri bringing her "Desi chhori" charm with "Patli Kamar," and Natalia Janoszek, the "Videshi gori," grooving to "Besharam Rang." Their unique styles are guaranteed to leave you spellbound!
The official first look and logo, unveiled on July 25th, hinted at the political undertones. Then, on July 31st, Salman Khan himself announced the August 24th premiere and the "Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar" theme. A full trailer on August 7th revealed a parliament-inspired twist, promising a season where housemates take the reins.
This season's eye logo, a mosaic of blues, yellows, reds, and greens, symbolizes constant surveillance and the intricate dynamics within the house. The white border with blue and grey shading perfectly complements the political theme.
Catch all the drama and decisions streaming live on JioHotstar at 9 PM IST, followed by Colors TV at 10:30 PM IST, embracing a digital-first approach for maximum accessibility.
And the house! Located in Film City, Mumbai, the Bigg Boss 19 house is a "Cabin in the Woods" fantasy brought to life. Designed by Omung Kumar and Vanita Garud, it's a rustic retreat with vibrant accents, all while embodying the "Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar" sub-theme, where every decision rests with the housemates. From the circular living area sofa to the parrot-adorned kitchen and the parliament-like assembly room, every corner is designed for drama and strategy. And introducing the innovative App Room on Day 6, where the most trending housemate on JioHotstar's 24x7 public chat gets access to apps that can sway the game! Plus, a secret room and the absence of a jail promise a fresh, unpredictable season.
The original entrants include acclaimed actress Ashnoor Kaur, the talented writer and actor Zeishan Quadri, influencer Tanya Mittal, choreographer Awez Darbar, dancer and influencer Nagma Mirajkar, actress and model Nehal Chudasama, actor Abhishek Bajaj, reality TV star Baseer Ali, popular actor Gaurav Khanna, Polish actress Natalia Janoszek, stand-up comedian Pranit More, actress Farhana Bhat, Bhojpuri actress Neelam Giri, veteran actress Kunickaa Sadanand, content creator Mridul Tiwari, and music composer Amaal Mallik.
