The Bigg Boss house is gearing up to welcome its next batch of contestants, and the buzz is already electric! Bigg Boss 20 is set to kick off on September 6, 2026, with the ever-charismatic Salman Khan back at the helm as host. This season is expected to feature around 20 contestants, including some surprise wild card entries, though the final lineup is still under wraps.
As we count down to the premiere, several names are making the rounds. Aman Gandhi, who fans will remember as Hrithik Virani from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, is rumored to be among the housemates. Isha Rikhi, who’s been in the spotlight lately due to some personal life speculation, is another name being tossed around.

Things get even more intriguing with Uditi Singh, who previously dated Karan Wahi, reportedly in talks to join the show. And let’s not forget about reality TV star Kushal Tanwar, affectionately known as Gullu, who could be bringing his unique flair to the mix.

Aug 31, 2026This season is also expected to showcase a strong lineup of social media influencers. Names like Qazi Touqeer, Arshifa Khan, Anjali Arora, and Aryan Kelvin are being discussed, along with actors Khushi Dubey and Yukti Kapoor, who are also rumored to be in the running.
Adding to the excitement, Amrapali Dubey is said to be confirmed for the season, bringing a touch of Bhojpuri star power to the lineup. Geeta Basra, Sunil Pal, and Showik Chakraborty are also being linked to the show, while the potential inclusion of legendary boxer Mary Kom has certainly stirred up some surprise speculation.
However, there are still a few names hanging in the balance. Niti Taylor, Parth Samthaan, Karan Wahi, Pranali Rathod, and Mahhi Vij have all reportedly been approached, but nothing is set in stone just yet.
Initially, Rajat Bedi was thought to be a confirmed contestant, but it seems he’s no longer in the mix. This just goes to show how quickly things can shift behind the scenes before the final cast is officially announced.
The main thing to remember is that none of these names are official until the creators make their own announcement. Bigg Boss has always thrived on keeping things under wraps, and with so many familiar faces from television, influencers, and some unexpected names being tossed around for this season, the final lineup could still hold a few surprises.
For now, all this speculation is doing exactly what it’s meant to do, keeping everyone on their toes. Salman Khan is set to return for the new season on September 6, and with a house that’s rumored to be filled with around 20 contestants, Bigg Boss 20 is gearing up for another wild ride of friendships, conflicts, alliances, and, of course, plenty of chaos.
