MUMBAI: The countdown has officially begun for the highly anticipated Bigg Boss Season 19, and the excitement is building across the nation.
Known for its unapologetic drama, unexpected turns, and emotional confrontations, the iconic reality show is gearing up for its grand return — and this time, the theme is set to take a bold political twist.
While the official premiere date remains under wraps, industry chatter points towards a launch around 24th August.
Adding fuel to the fire, JioHotstar recently dropped a gripping teaser, teasing this year’s theme: Politics. With a fresh concept and renewed format, expectations are already sky-high.
Amidst the mounting anticipation, one name has reignited controversy — Priyanka Jagga, the infamous contestant from Bigg Boss Season 10.

The former housemate, remembered for her fiery presence and headline-making exit, has confirmed that she has been approached for the upcoming season. However, her statement has not gone down well with fans.
Social media platforms are abuzz, with netizens expressing disbelief and outrage at the possibility of Priyanka’s return — particularly given her bitter fallout with host Salman Khan.
Viewers vividly recall the moment when Salman asked her to leave the house mid-season, following a string of unpleasant incidents, including her remarks about fellow contestant Manu’s personal tragedy.
Here’s how netizens have reacted to the news:
Pooja Singh: “I think she must be dreaming. There's no chance the makers would bring her back — not after Salman Khan made it clear he wouldn't work with the channel if she returned. That episode where he told her to leave the house is unforgettable.”
Simran Chopra: “This has to be a joke. She’s banned from returning, and even if the rules changed once for Shamita Shetty, it won’t be for Priyanka. Salman would never allow it.”
Karan Sharma: “I actually laughed when I read the news. With JioCinema now handling the show alongside COLORS, I doubt they'd risk upsetting Salman Khan by bringing her back. It’s a ridiculous idea.”
Sharon Sequeira : “She must be living in a dream world if she thinks she’s getting another chance. If she joins, Salman will walk — it’s as simple as that.”
Clearly, the audience hasn’t forgotten the past and they’re not ready to see history repeat itself. While Priyanka’s claim has stirred a storm online, fans seem confident that she won’t be stepping back into the Bigg Boss house anytime soon.
With the premiere date approaching and teasers setting the stage for an explosive new season, one thing is certain — Bigg Boss 19 is ready to deliver its signature chaos, but perhaps not with Priyanka Jagga in the mix.
Stay tuned for official updates, and brace yourselves — this season promises to be anything but predictable.
