Bigg Boss 20 is generating significant buzz ahead of its much-awaited premiere. Hosted by Salman Khan, the upcoming season has already sparked speculation about the celebrities who could enter the Bigg Boss house.
Several names from television, social media, Bhojpuri cinema, music and sports have reportedly been linked to the show. However, it is important to note that the names doing the rounds are rumoured contestants, and participation should not be considered confirmed until officially announced by the makers.
From television actor and host Karan Wahi to social media star Arishfa Khan and legendary boxer Mary Kom, here is a look at some of the celebrities reportedly associated with Bigg Boss 20.
Karan Wahi
Television actor and host Karan Wahi is one of the prominent names reportedly linked to Bigg Boss 20. Wahi is best known for his performances in popular television shows including Dill Mill Gayye and for his work as a television presenter.
The actor is also currently associated with Khatron Ke Khiladi 15. Reports have suggested that he has been in discussions regarding Bigg Boss 20, although his participation has not been officially confirmed.
If Wahi enters the Bigg Boss house, his television experience and hosting background could make him one of the season’s interesting personalities.
Arishfa Khan
Social media personality and actress Arishfa Khan is another name that has reportedly been linked to Bigg Boss 20.
Arishfa began her career as a child actor before establishing a substantial presence on social media. Her popularity among digital audiences has made her a potential reality-show contestant.
Some reports have claimed that her participation could be finalised, but the official Bigg Boss 20 contestant lineup remains awaited.
Amrapali Dubey
Popular Bhojpuri actress Amrapali Dubey has also emerged as a rumoured name for Bigg Boss 20.
A familiar face in Bhojpuri cinema, Dubey has built a strong fan base through her work in films and entertainment projects. She has also recently been associated with the reality-show space through Bhojpuri Bawaal.
Her name has appeared in reports discussing potential Bigg Boss 20 contestants, although there has been no official confirmation from the actress or the show’s makers.
Mahhi Vij
Television actress Mahhi Vij is another celebrity whose name has been associated with the upcoming season.
Vij is known for her work in popular television shows such as Balika Vadhu and Laagi Tujhse Lagan. According to reports, she was approached for Bigg Boss 20, with discussions reportedly taking place regarding her participation.
For now, however, her entry into the Bigg Boss house remains unconfirmed.
Mary Kom
Perhaps one of the most surprising names associated with Bigg Boss 20 is Mary Kom.
The celebrated Indian boxer and Olympic medallist has reportedly been linked to the Salman Khan-hosted reality show. If the reports turn out to be true, her potential appearance would bring a sporting personality and a very different professional background to the Bigg Boss house.
Mary Kom’s reported participation has consequently become one of the more talked-about rumours surrounding the upcoming season.
Udita Singh
Udita Singh is another name reportedly linked to Bigg Boss 20. Her name has gained attention in connection with reports surrounding Karan Wahi.
Reports have suggested that both could potentially appear on the upcoming reality show. However, neither Udita Singh nor Karan Wahi has officially confirmed their participation.
As with the other names on this list, viewers will have to wait for the official announcement to know whether Singh actually enters the Bigg Boss house.
Gullu aka Kushal Tanwar
Kushal Tanwar, popularly known as Gullu, is also reportedly being considered for Bigg Boss 20.
Known for his association with the reality-show circuit, Gullu’s name has been circulating among the potential contestants for the upcoming season.
While reports have created curiosity among viewers, his participation has not been officially confirmed.
Qazi Touqeer
Singer and reality-show personality Qazi Touqeer is another name reportedly doing the rounds for Bigg Boss 20.
Touqeer rose to fame after winning Fame Gurukul and subsequently remained associated with the entertainment industry. His experience with reality television could make him an interesting addition to the Bigg Boss house.
Recent reports have included his name among the possible contestants, but an official confirmation is still awaited.
Bigg Boss 20 Contestants: Rumours vs Official Confirmation
With the premiere approaching, speculation around the Bigg Boss 20 contestant lineup is expected to intensify. The names of Karan Wahi, Arishfa Khan, Amrapali Dubey, Mahhi Vij, Mary Kom, Udita Singh, Kushal Tanwar and Qazi Touqeer have reportedly surfaced in connection with the show.
However, these names should currently be treated as part of the rumour and speculation surrounding Bigg Boss 20 unless officially confirmed by the show’s makers.
The final contestant list could therefore be different from the names currently circulating online.
Bigg Boss 20 Premiere and Salman Khan
Bigg Boss continues to be one of India’s most-watched reality television franchises, with its combination of celebrity contestants, interpersonal drama, tasks and unexpected twists keeping audiences engaged.
With Salman Khan returning as the host, expectations surrounding Bigg Boss 20 are particularly high. The reported mix of television personalities, social media stars, entertainers and a sporting legend has further increased curiosity around the new season.
As the premiere date approaches, fans will be watching closely for the official announcement of the contestants.
