Bigg Boss 19 is all set to premiere on August 24, 2025. As the premiere date gets closer, the buzz around the show is growing fast. Hosted by Salman Khan, this season comes with a fresh theme and format – politics. Now, the latest update has got fans even more excited. Popular rapper Raftaar may be entering the Bigg Boss house this season.
Raftaar In Bigg Boss 19?
According to inside reports, Raftaar has been approached for Bigg Boss 19. While he has not signed the final agreement yet, talks are ongoing. A source told CNN-News18 Showsha, “Yes, it is true. Rapper Raftaar was approached for the show. He looks interested but has not finalised his participation as of now. If he agrees to sign the contract, he will be seen in Bigg Boss 19.”
If Raftaar joins, he could add a new spark to the house. His strong personality and bold attitude might make him one of the most suitable contestants this year. His recent appearance on The Traitors (hosted by Karan Johar) showed fans a new side of him, which can fit perfectly in the high-pressure world of Bigg Boss.
Who Else Could Join The Show?
Every year, fans are eager to know who the contestants will be. This season, over 45 celebrities from TV and social media have reportedly been approached. Some fan pages, including Bigg Boss Taza Khabar, have shared the names of popular influencers and TV stars. But the final list will only be revealed during the grand premiere.
Bigg Boss 19 Political Theme
What makes this season different is its unique political theme. This year, the house will be split into two teams – the ruling party and the opposition. The theme will kick off during the premiere with a special on-stage activity, which will be filmed on August 22 and 23.
Every week, each team will choose one person to compete for the position of house leader or “sarkaar.” A voting system will decide the winner. Once chosen, the leader will assign roles like kitchen minister or bedroom minister.
There will also be secret tasks. These tasks, both team and individual, will help decide weekly rations and give teams an edge in the game.
Unlike earlier seasons, Bigg Boss 19 will have only 15 single beds (no doubles). This change could affect how contestants plan alliances and build bonds, making the show more strategic.
Where To Watch Bigg Boss 19?
The latest season will air on Colors TV and stream on JioHotstar starting August 24, 2025. The launch date falls just before Ganesh Chaturthi, which is expected to bring high TRP ratings during the festival.
