Apoorva Mukhija To Participate In Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 19? Know Here
Reportedly, television actresses Gautami Kapoor and Moon Banerjee are also in talks with the makers of Bigg Boss 19.
It is no secret that Bigg Boss is soon returning with its season 19. While everyone is eager to know who will be locked inside the house this time, it has now been reported that Apoorva Mukhija is likely to participate in the upcoming season. If a report by Siasat is to be believed, Mukhija, popularly known as The Rebel Kid, has been approached by the makers of Salman Khan's controversial reality show. However, there is no official confirmation regarding Apoorva's participation as of now.
The report also claimed that besides Apoorva, television actresses Gautami Kapoor and Moon Banerjee are also in talks with the makers of the show. Reportedly, Daisy Shah, who was also seen in Khatron Ke Khiladi 13, is also likely to be one of the confirmed contestants of Bigg Boss 19.
Munmun Dutta Aka Babita Ji Also Approached For Bigg Boss 19?
On Tuesday, a report by ETimes claimed that Munmun Dutta, popularly known for playing the role of Babita Ji in the show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, is also likely to participate in Bigg Boss 19. According to sources close to the production, Munmun has once again been approached by the show's creators.
Interestingly, this isn't her first brush with Bigg Boss. Over the years, Munmun has been approached multiple times to participate but has consistently declined. Now, with talks surfacing again, fans are left wondering—could 2025 finally mark her entry into the Salman Khan-hosted reality show?
Was Bigg Boss 19 Supposed To Get Cancelled?
Previously, uncertainty loomed over the upcoming season of Bigg Boss. After the reports of an alleged rift between Colors TV and the show's production house, Banijay Asia, made headlines, it was said that the season 19 of Salman Khan's controversial reality show might be cancelled.
However, last month, a report by Pinkvilla claimed that Bigg Boss 19 is definitely happening and will be produced by Endemol Shine India. Reportedly, Salman Khan has also been confirmed as the host for another season, and he will begin shooting the first promo in June end. The show is likely to go on air in July. However, an official confirmation from the makers regarding Bigg Boss 19 is still awaited.

Anupamaa fame transgender actress Shubhi Sharma reacts to reports of joining Bigg Boss 19
With Bigg Boss 19 all set to premiere on August 24, the buzz around its new lineup of contestants is gaining momentum. As always, Salman Khan returns as the host of the much-awaited reality show, which promises fresh twists, bold personalities, and explosive drama. Among the names doing rounds this season is Shubhi Sharma , a transgender actress known for her roles in popular television shows such as Anupamaa, Dhruv Tara, Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, Chaand Jalne Laga, Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya 2, Saavi Ki Savaari, and Nath. When asked about her participation, Shubhi responded, "Yes, I'm in touch with the team. But I won't be able to comment over the matter." If she confirms her presence, Shubhi would be the second transgender contestant on Bigg Boss, after Laxmi Narayan Tripathi's groundbreaking appearance in season 5, which was hailed for its representation. Shubhi's work on Anupamaa not only gave her national recognition but also led to a strong bond with actress Rupali Ganguly, the face of the show. Recently, Shubhi celebrated her birthday with Rupali in attendance—something she described as deeply special. 'Her presence meant the world to me,' Shubhi shared, appreciating Rupali's genuine friendship and support. The rumoured contestant list also includes names like Gurucharan Singh, Gaurav Khanna, Mr Faisu, Apoorva Mukhija, and Hunar Gandhi, adding to the growing curiosity. Whether or not she enters the Bigg Boss house, Shubhi Sharma's name in the mix is already being seen as a powerful step toward visibility, inclusivity, and breaking barriers on national television.

Anup Jalota Denies Any Romantic Relationship With Jasleen Matharu: ‘I Was Shocked But…'
Anup Jalota denied any romantic involvement with Jasleen Matharu, stating she lied about their relationship on Bigg Boss 12. He clarified they were guru and shishya. Anup Jalota entered Bigg Boss 12 with singer Jasleen Matharu, and their alleged relationship created quite a stir; every headline carried their names. But what was the reality behind their equation? Jalota, in a recent conversation, slammed claims of a romantic relationship and said he was never romantically involved with Jasleen, adding that she lied on stage in front of Salman Khan. In a conversation with Lallantop, Anup was questioned about his participation with Jasleen and the reality of their relationship, to which he shared, 'She once told me that she received an offer to participate in Bigg Boss. I said, that's great, you will earn fame. She used to dance in groups and sing at that time." 'But there was a condition that you could only come as a weird pair that season. I asked her to take Sukhwinder ji, but she told me he had declined. Even I said no, I won't go. I didn't have time, there were so many concerts. Her father came and convinced me. I said yes, but only on one condition—that we would go as guru and shishya. She agreed," Anup Jalota added. While further slamming Jasleen for lying on stage in front of Salman Khan, the bhajan singer stated, 'I entered the stage and met Salman Khan. Then, Jasleen was welcomed as my partner. When Salman asked if she was my shishya, she said that she had been in a relationship with me for three years. I thought, 'Yeh kya ho gaya?' We never even knew each other that well." 'I was shocked, but I thought this might be part of the game, kisi ne toh use yeh padhaaya hoga bolne ke liye. When we were going inside, I asked her about it. Main samajh gaya tha isse kuch game banta hai, ya toh Bigg Boss waalon ne bola hoga, usse ek afwaah uthti hai. I never confronted her. Main samajh gaya tha ki peeche koi khel hua hai, shayad uska use koi fayda hi hoga, and she benefitted," he added. While further talking about the controversy that Jasleen's statement triggered, Anup Jalota stated that he called a press conference with Jasleen's father and clarified the situation to the media. 'We told them that both of us have decided that we will do the kanyadaan at Jasleen's wedding. Ab sawaal konsa rahega poochne wala? Baat hi khatam ho gayi. The doubts went away because no one saw us together at any party, watching films, performing on stage, or on any vacations." First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

But now, out of the blue… Bigg Boss has called again. Yes—this season. They want me back. This season is all about RAJNEETI. Here's the thing: I've healed. I've built a new life. I'm not chasing lights or headlines anymore. But this offer feels like a breakthrough. Not for fame. But maybe for closure. Maybe for courage. Maybe for something more. I'm torn. Should I say yes?
