The Bigg Boss 18 celebrity contestant list has finally been unveiled, ending the wait. This year's cast includes several well-known figures from Bollywood, television, and even politics, promising to provide high-voltage drama, entertainment, and intrigue.

Premiere date and time

On October 6, 2024, the 18th season of Bigg Boss will launch with a grand premiere that starts at 9 PM IST. The show will air on Colors TV as usual, and JioCinema will also offer streaming access. Fans may conveniently catch up on the current events of the house by watching both the live episodes and the previous ones on the digital platform.

Bigg Boss 18 theme

The show's creators have introduced a unique theme called "Time Ka Taandav" for this season. As implied by the tagline, "Iss baar ghar mein bhuchaal aayega, kyunki Bigg Boss mein Time Ka Taandav chaaeyga!" (This time, chaos will strike the house as the wrath of time will reign in Bigg Boss). The inside of the house is anticipated to mirror this time-based concept, with a variety of features that will test the contestants and grab the attention of the audience.

Bigg Boss 18 prize money

Like the previous season, when comedian Munawar Faruqui won the trophy and cash prize, the prize money for this season is anticipated to be around ₹50 lakh.
