Wait is finally over! The most anticipated reality show, Bigg Boss returns to television with a brand new season and unique theme of Dil Dimaag aur Dum. This time Bigg Boss will not just keep an eye on the contestants, but very much be a part of the game as the contestants put in their hearts, brain and strength to win it.
‘Tiger‘ Salman Khan will be seen as the host again in this season for the fourteenth time. In the first promo it was mentioned that “Dil Dimaag aur Dum ka hoga ye game… par ye game nahi hoga sabke liye same” hinting that few contestants will be favoured by Bigg Boss himself and they’ll also be having few privileges inside the house. In every season the makers are blamed for their biasness towards some contestants but this time Bigg Boss would be openly favouring a few.
A video has been shared on social media handles of Colors TV where the new Bigg Boss house is revealed. The majestic house has been divided into three sections. While the Dil section is painted in hues of pink and whites and has a therapy room attached to it, the Dimaag section has been designed in red theme with the walls being decorated like a chess board. The dimaag section will have an archival room in it where some contestants would be able to access footage from the house. The Dum section is the darkest room of the house, painted in black and castle like design giving a feel of Hogwarts.
Teaser promos of few contestants have also been revealed on social media. There will be total 17 contestants in this season with 3 real life couples who would be staying in the beautiful Dil section of the house. Pavitra Rishta fame actress Ankita Lokhande and husband Vicky Jain are the first couple revealed through the promo. Another telly couple Aishwarya Sharma and Neill Bhatt who were a part of popular daily soap Ghum Hai Kisi Ke Pyar mein will also be seen in the show. Aishwarya was recently seen in Khatron ke Khiladi.
Ex couple Isha Malviya and Abhishek Kumar who were seen in Colors’ popular daily soap Udaariyan will also be seen in Bigg Boss 17. The couple separated last year and in a viral clip they are seen having a heated argument on stage in front of Salman Khan before entering the Bigg Boss house.
In another promo a contestant is seen dancing with Salman Khan on Lal Dupatta and netizens have identified her as Mannara Chopra who is actress Parineeti Chopra and Priyanka Chopra’s cousin.
Stand up comedian and winner of Lock Upp season 1, Munawar Farooqui is also confirmed to be participating in this season and his entry has created a lot of frenzy among his fans.
