Bigg Boss 9 Telugu: New season to premiere early with bigger stars | Exclusive

Bigg Boss 8 Telugu was not a massive hit, although it garnered solid TRP ratings. One of the major reasons for this was the selection of contestants, as most of them were TV stars with limited face value on social media and beyond. The show’s makers faced heavy criticism for bringing in celebrities primarily from their own TV serials.

Contestants like Priyanka Jain, Yashmi Gowda, and Prithvi Shetty were familiar names in the television industry but did not generate much buzz outside that space. Nikhil, a TV actor also won the show last season. However, things are set to change with Bigg Boss 9 Telugu. 

Planning for the new season is already underway, and sources suggest that the show might premiere earlier than usual. Traditionally, Bigg Boss Telugu airs in September, but this time, the makers are considering launching it in May 2025. Their goal is to capitalize on the summer holiday season, potentially attracting a larger audience.
