Bigg Boss

In Bigg Boss, a number of contestants are locked in a purpose-built house with limited facilities, isolated from the rest of the world. The house is built differently for each season, depending on the theme. The contestants are put under constant surveillance and perform the tasks assigned to them by Bigg Boss. The contestants with the best performance are rewarded with immunity and special advantages.

Every week each contestant nominates two of their housemates for eviction, and the housemates who receive the most nominations face a public vote.

The last few seasons of the show have been hosted by none other than the audience favourite, Salman Khan, who brings his own charm and charisma to the show. He appears every weekend to announce the eliminated contestant and also schools the rest of the contestants for their behaviour throughout the week.

In the final week, only a couple of housemates are left, and the audience votes for their favourite for the big win.

Bigg Boss 16 Theme

One of the best things about Bigg Boss is that there’s a new theme every year. We’ve seen several interesting themes over the years, like the Heaven-Hell, Aircraft, Padosi, Jodi and the Double-Trouble themes. After a Jungle theme in Season 15, it is rumoured that theBigg Boss 16 is going to have an Aqua theme - something related to “Ocean and Water”. In some of the leaked photos circulating on the internet, we can see theBigg Boss house adorned with bright blue and gold hues with sea-inspired embellishments, making it even harder for us to wait for the new season. The themes set the tones for what we can expect in the season, and by the sounds of it, Bigg Boss 16 seems really interesting.
