As Bigg Boss 19 gets ready for its big premiere on August 24, social media is full of rumours, viral clips, and surprising names linked to the show. With a theme based on POLITICS And REWIND there’s growing talk about political figures and influencers entering the house. But is any of it real, or just viral drama?
Bigg Boss 19: Manish Kashyap’s Viral Audio Sparks Controversy
YouTuber and journalist Manish Kashyap recently posted an audio clip on platform X (formerly Twitter). In it, a man named Adil claims to be from the Bigg Boss casting team. He says, “Your speaking style and influence is very good, that’s why I want to connect with you.”
Kashyap says he wants to meet face-to-face and replies, “Yes, I am contesting the elections.”
Even though the post was deleted later, it created a buzz. Kashyap had recently quit BJP and joined Jan Suraj, so the timing added fuel to the rumours. But sources from the show have said the clip is likely fake and that there’s no confirmation of his entry.
Tej Pratap Yadav Also Received A Call For Bigg Boss 19 Participation?
Another surprise name is Tej Pratap Yadav (son of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav). Some reports claimed that Salman Khan had personally approached him for Bigg Boss 19. When asked about it, Tej Pratap said, “Whether I contest the elections or go to Bigg Boss, I will decide this after the elections.”
Still, there’s no official confirmation from his side or the show\’s makers. Just like the Kashyap story, this one also seems to be a rumour without strong proof.
Kunal Kamra And The Trend Of Fake Offers
Earlier, comedian Kunal Kamra shared a screenshot of a WhatsApp message where someone claimed he was being considered for Bigg Boss. The message read, “Your name has come up as someone they might find interesting… it’s such a mad platform to show your real vibe and win over a massive audience.”
Kamra didn’t take the message seriously, and there was no follow-up from the show. It looks like another fake offer in the growing trend of false casting buzz.
With Salman Khan returning in a politician-style look and saying, “is baar hogi gharwalon ki sarkaar” – Bigg Boss 19 is aiming for a political twist. But as of now, the names of Manish Kashyap, Tej Pratap Yadav seem more like social media chatter than confirmed contestants. Only the official announcements will reveal who’s actually walking into the house.
