Bigg Boss 16 Theme

As you know, one of the best things about Bigg Boss is that there’s a new theme every year. This not only makes it stand out from the previous seasons but also keeps the audience engaged and entertained. 

There has been such a variety in the themes in the previous seasons. So, why not have a look at some of the past themes before we get on to what you can expect in the upcoming Bigg Boss 16 theme 2022?

Bigg Boss Season 6 – Village Theme

By season 5, Bigg Boss had become a rather controversial show. So, in season 6, the approach was to make it more parivarik, and hence the tagline – Alag Che. This was the first season in which a theme of sorts was introduced and it was a Village Theme.

In this season, a new house was built along with the original Bigg Boss house. It was built in a village-like setting, and some of the contestants were moved to the new house and had to work hard to survive.

Bigg Boss Season 7 – Heaven & Hell Theme

The seventh season of Bigg Boss was titled “Jannat Ka Wow Aur Jahannam Ka Aaw Dekhege Saath Saath” and it was based on a Heaven and Hell theme. Once again, the house was divided into two parts – one really large and spacious with all the luxuries, and the other really miserable with no water or gas supply or even comfortable beds, which was essentially used as a means to torture contestants.

But according to some other speculations, the theme for Bigg Boss 16 house is not going to be Aqua Theme but a Circus Theme instead.

Shocked? We were too. So many reports claimed the theme would be Aqua that we didn’t think there could be any other speculations. But according to a YouTube video, this season’s theme isn’t Aqua but a Circus Theme instead.

In all the promos Salman Khan was heard mentioning, “Iss baar Bigg Boss khelenge” and we all were wondering what could it mean. Although there is no confirmed news from the official channels, speculations are that the Bigg Boss house will have everything that you can see in a Circus.

According to reports, the Bigg Boss house is ready and is made to look like a circus with all its iconic tents and features like Maut Ka Kuan, etc. The house will also hone different animals and stuntmen and the host Salman Khan will be the Ringmaster of the circus.

Now, are these reports true? We can’t be sure until there is some official announcement but does this excite us? Definitely YES!

The question is also whether the Bigg Boss 16 theme will be an Aqua theme as previously reported or a Circus theme as per new speculations. 

If it’s the latter, it would also be interesting to see how this Circus theme will be executed and what roles will the contestants play in Bigg Boss’ Circus. 

The fact that Salman Khan keeps mentioning “Rule ye hai ki koi rule nahi hai” combined with the speculations of a Circus theme, one can only wonder about the entertainment and drama that will ensue.
