Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 19 To Drop Influencers And Focus On TV, Film Celebs: Report
Last Updated: Bigg Boss 19 Contestants: Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 19 to feature only TV and Bollywood stars, excluding influencers. Bigg Boss 19 Contestants: As anticipation builds for Bigg Boss 19, buzz is strong that the makers are planning a big shake-up in the show's format. This season, the spotlight may shift entirely to established names from television and Bollywood. According to Telly Reporter, 'Unlike previous seasons, this time, the makers have decided not to approach YouTubers for the reality show." In the past, several influencers and digital creators, including Elvish Yadav, Abhishek Malhan (Fukra Insaan), Manisha Rani, and Rajat Dalal, gained major traction and fan following through their memorable journeys inside the house. Their popularity skyrocketed after their stint on the show, making them household names. However, this time around, the makers are reportedly targeting known TV stars and film personalities instead. While the official lineup hasn't been revealed yet, insiders suggest that casting is already underway. If everything proceeds as scheduled, Bigg Boss 19 is expected to premiere on July 19, 2025. But that's not all—according to a Pinkvilla report, this edition of the Salman Khan-hosted show is all set to be the longest in franchise history. According to the report, Bigg Boss 19 will extend beyond its typical 3-month duration, running for nearly 5.5 months, marking the longest-running season to date," the report states. Adding to the excitement, Salman will film the promo for Bigg Boss 19 by late June 2025 and fans can expect the show to air from July 30, 2025, until January 2026. There has been no official word yet from the channel or production team, but fans are already guessing which big names might be seen in the house this year. Typically, Bigg Boss premieres in September or October, but this year it will start early to allow for a longer run. Another notable change is that there won't be Bigg Boss OTT this year. Previously, the show expanded with a digital version running for about 1.5 months on JioCinema. The first season of Bigg Boss OTT was hosted by Karan Johar, and Divya Agarwal emerged as the winner. Elvish Yadav won Bigg Boss OTT 2 hosted by Salman Khan, and Anil Kapoor hosted the third season, where Sana Makbul emerged victorious. First Published:

Bigg Boss 19 major format change: Is the YouTuber-influencer era ending on Salman's Khan's reality show?
The upcoming season of Bigg Boss is set to witness a major transformation, as reports suggest a clear shift in its contestant lineup. According to multiple sources including Telly Reporter and Gossips TV, Bigg Boss 19 will not feature any social media influencers or YouTubers. Instead, the show will return to its traditional format, spotlighting established actors from television and Bollywood. This marks a significant departure from the format seen in recent seasons, where digital content creators played a major role. Influencers such as Elvish Yadav, Abhishek Malhan (Fukra Insaan), Manisha Rani, and Rajat Dalal became key attractions in previous editions, drawing in younger viewers with their massive online presence and engaging gameplay. Despite their popularity, the makers have reportedly opted to revisit the show's original identity by focusing exclusively on celebrities from mainstream entertainment. Casting Underway, No Official Contestant List Yet Though no official list of contestants has been released so far, sources indicate that casting for Bigg Boss 19 is currently in progress. Prominent faces from the television and film fraternity are being approached. The aim is reportedly to restore the traditional star power that defined the earlier seasons, and possibly reconnect with the core audience who followed the show before the influencer era began.

As per a report from Pinkvilla and updates by fan portal Bigg Boss Khabri, the season will run for approximately 5.5 to 6 months. If timelines remain on track, the show is anticipated to premiere around July 19 or July 30, 2025, and conclude in January 2026. This would mark a substantial extension compared to the usual three-month format. Bigg Boss OTT Cancelled for 2025 In another notable update, the digital spin-off Bigg Boss OTT, which usually streams on JioCinema, has reportedly been cancelled for this year. The digital version had gained momentum with hosts like Karan Johar, Salman Khan, and Anil Kapoor in past seasons, with winners including Divya Agarwal, Elvish Yadav, and Sana Makbul. The decision to skip the OTT edition this year appears to be aimed at avoiding audience fatigue and ensuring complete focus on the television version. Salman Khan Returns as Host for 16th Time Salman Khan will once again return as the host of Bigg Boss 19, continuing his long-standing association with the franchise. Having first joined the series in 2010 with Season 4, Salman has become a key figure of the show, especially popular during the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes. According to Bigg Boss Khabri, he is expected to shoot the first promotional video by the end of June 2025. While neither the channel nor the production house has officially confirmed the new format or premiere date, fan speculation is already running high.
