About Bigg Boss 19
Bigg Boss 19's theme is Rewind, and a major part of that is bringing back the secret room. Two finalists, believed to be evicted from the show, will be chosen for the secret room at random. These contestants will observe how their co-players behave once the two are assumed to be out of the reality TV show. The finalists will then re-enter the show and continue the game with a new perspective.
Moreover, Bigg Boss 19 follows the concept of Bigg Boss OTT, where players will choose whether they want to join Bigg Boss OTT 4 once out of Salman's show. Interestingly, while Bigg Boss 19 is believed to release in August, there is still no update on the same. The logo of the season, followed by the teaser, is expected to release this week.
