Bigg Boss 14: Sidharth Shukla-Shehnaaz Gill reuniting, new format and contestants - here’s all you need to know about Salman Khan’s show

The wait is almost over for Bigg Boss fans. In a promo released recently, Salman Khan announced the premiere date of the show which is October 3. Salman will be hosting the show for the eleventh time. The last season was quite popular so expectations are high from this one. But this year, it will be different as Coronavirus is still here. So let's tell you all that you need to know about Bigg Boss 14.

Sidharth Shukla and Shehnaaz Gill to reunite

It is believed that Shehnaaz and Sidharth will join Salman Khan during the premiere episode. Both were quite popular in Bigg Boss 13. A source told Indian Express, "SidNaaz's presence will be an exciting surprise for their fans. Also, while Shukla won the show, Gill was one of the finalists. So the couple can also share some valuable inputs with the contestants. They both also have a fun equation with Salman Khan, and that could add more fun on the premiere night."

Contestants

Like every year, speculations are rife about the contestants. The show was scheduled to go on air within the first week of September but was later pushed to October as several contestants reportedly backed out and that too, at the last moment. According to reports, the confirmed list of contestants includes Jasmin Bhasin, Jaan Shanu, Eijaz Khan and Aly Goni. Reportedly, this time, 4 YouTubers will also be entering the house. They are already put up in a hotel in Mumbai for quarantine as they had to travel from Delhi to Mumbai.

Lockdown theme

Reports say that this year is going to be totally different. This year the theme is based on the lockdown and the contestants will get a chance to enjoy never-before-experienced luxuries in the house. The makers of Bigg Boss 14 have planned to construct a mall, a mini-theatre, spa, and a restaurant-style corner in the house. A source close to Indian Express said, "Throughout the lockdown, people have missed certain activities, be it shopping, eating out or watching films. As part of the luxury tasks, contestants would be able to win a chance to enjoy these in the Bigg Boss 14 house."

Health is wealth

Special focus this season will be on contestants' health and hygiene. Temperature checks and sanitisation will be regularly done to ensure safety and smooth functioning of the reality show. If a participant falls ill, his/her Bigg Boss journey will end.

Remuneration

According to reports, the contestants entering BB 14 will not be paid remuneration per week. Instead, a pre-decided budget for the show will play a role in drawing up a contract between the contestant and the makers. What this means is that the participants will not be paid for the episodes that have not been shot and if Coronavirus forces a contestant to vacate the house or the show to shut down, the incurred loss will be manageable.
