Salman Khan, Bigg Boss 20, and Upcoming Film Projects
For millions watching TV, it’s not just about who enters the house. It’s about that voice. Those weekend takedowns. And obviously, Salman Khan himself. He's become so tied to the franchise; you just can’t picture Bigg Boss without him running things.
But now? Reports are starting to suggest that might change soon. Fans probably won't have to wait long for that familiar presence back in the spotlight. Variety India mentioned it Salman is expected to host Bigg Boss 20. Shooting, they say, could kick off as early as September 21st. Preparations are clearly moving fast now for this big season.
They’re already laying the groundwork, you know? Auditions and shortlisting are coming soon. And there’s talk about contestants popping up from other reality shows too. Maybe some old faces will come back. That kind of nostalgia hits hard, I think.
The final lineup? Still secret, naturally. But the excitement around those possibilities is already huge among fans. It just feels like something big is brewing there.
Bigg Boss has had a lot of hosts over the years. But Salman’s connection to it... it’s something different. He’s been central for ages. Since he took the reins more than ten years back, he shaped what the show is . Think about it. Those Weekend Ka Vaar episodes. The sharp comments, the confrontations he was the anchor. The one holding everything together.
A lot of those iconic moments rely on him stepping in. Settling fights. Calling out behavior. Giving advice to people trapped inside that house. He was often the glue. That’s why audiences keep coming back season after season. It's more than just drama; it’s a habit.
Over nearly two decades, this show has been huge. Viral fights. Real friendships. Shocking exits. Unexpected winners. Every time there was drama, Salman’s hosting style just turned the ordinary stuff into headline news. That pressure cooker environment combined with his way of running things... it makes everything explode on screen.
Bigg Boss 19 wrapped up successfully, apparently. They kept that momentum going. People like Gaurav Khanna, Farrhana Bhatt, Amaal Mallik, Tanya Mittal, and Baseer Ali were the ones everyone was talking about during that run. Big names emerging from that setup.
With Season 20 looming expectations are naturally cranked up now. It just feels bigger than before.
Meanwhile, Salman has other things on his plate too. Before he dives back into the Bigg Boss set, there’s film work waiting. Reports say he’s planning to focus on some action thrillers right now. Something directed by Vamsi Paidipally. That movie also stars Nayanthara. Scheduling must be tricky though. They are working things out so he can manage both commitments.
Plus, there’s that other project. Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace . Directed by Apoorva Lakhia. Chitrangda Singh is co-starring too. Salman plays Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu in it. The release date isn't set yet, but the buzz around it has been intense. There were talks about changes during development things related to the Galwan Valley clash with China. But now, reports are shifting. They’ve revised things. Those references seem to be gone now. Just a different story unfolding.
