The new season of Bigg Boss is going full democracy. Starting August 24, Bigg Boss 19 will debut with a political-style twist titled Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar—a format designed to turn housemates into politicians and viewers into excited voters.
Contestants will be split into ruling party and opposition, clashing in weekly satta badal (power shift) tasks. The winning faction will form the government, appoint ministers for different zones of the house, and control resources until the next election. We first got a taste of this in the theme and cast preview, and it’s shaping up to be one of the boldest changes in Bigg Boss history.
Why This Twist Could Change Everything
Gone is the single captain model. Now, power belongs to alliances, debates, and votes. Whether it’s food distribution or nominations, every move will be shaped by political negotiation.
If the chaos of past captaincy battles thrilled you, this format takes it further—opposition rallies, surprise revolts, and mid-week overthrows will keep everyone on edge. The official trailer teases exactly that: high drama with a dash of Parliament vibes.
Premiere Date, Platforms & Duration
The grand premiere is locked for August 24, 2025.
