Bigg Boss 15, also known as Bigg Boss OTT hosts 13 contestants — Shamita Shetty, Neha Bhasin, Raqesh Bapat, Zeeshan Khan, Ridhima Pandit, Karan Nath, Urfi Javed, Divya Agarwal, Akshara Singh, Pratik Sehejpal, Nishant Bhatt, Moose Jattana (Muskaan Jattana), and Milind Gaba.

Karan Johar hosted Bigg Boss OTT premiered on Voot on August 8. A prelude to Bigg Boss 15, the digital version will stream for six weeks, and the top performers will get a chance to be on Salman Khan’s reality show.

Apart from an hour-long episode, the audience will have 24×7 live access to the housemates. The makers will also give viewers the power to decide tasks, punishments, and even eliminations with the theme- Stay Connected.

The makers have roped in 13 housemates who will flaunt their ‘bolder and crazier’ avatar to win the trophy and secure a spot on Bigg Boss 15. Talking about associating with Bigg Boss OTT, Karan Johar shared that he has always been a fan of the show. However, the filmmaker is clear he will never be able to survive the game, as he cannot live without his phone. In case he gets a chance to be joined by friends in the house, Karan picked Kareena Kapoor and Malaika Arora to be his partners in crime.

If we talk about contestants, Shamita, who had participated in Bigg Boss earlier in 2009 for its third season, is back again for the 15th edition, and it looks like netizens are not happy about it. The Mohabbatein actress participated in Bigg Boss 3 a decade ago but left it midway to attend her sister Shilpa Shetty’s wedding to Raj Kundra. Now with Raj Kundra being arrested on charges of producing porn films and Shilpa Shetty taking a break from her television career, Shamita’s entry back to Bigg Boss is not going down well with the audience.
