Despite being in its fifth season, Bigg Boss still seems to have many surprises in store for both housemates as well as audiences. And the surprises keep coming, as hinted in a promo for an upcoming episode of the show.

The latest promo shows Mohanlal address the housemates, and reveal that the housemates have a new visitor. As the excited housemates press the host for more details, he reveals that the guest is a director and he is coming to the house to have an audition among the housemates for his new movie, after hearing that some of the housemates have a penchant for becoming actors.

In the comments, some fans suggested that the director in question is most probably Omar Lulu. His recent film, Nalla Samayam, featured Bigg Boss Malayalam contestant Angeline Mariya. Angeline became the first housemate to be evicted from the show on last Sunday’s episode. The film, which also starred Irshad in the lead role along with newcomers Meera Madhu, Nora Johan, Nandana Sahadevan, Gayathri Shankar and Suha, had been pulled from theatres after courting controversy over its content, and had been released on the OTT platform Saina Play on April 15.

The previous episode of the reality series saw Gopika get upset with Sagar and Junaiz when the latter two declared that her actions were motivated by her desire to play the game well. The episode also saw chaos erupt when Bigg Boss changed the rules of the Chakravyuh task, and in the end declared an end to the task without anyone receiving the elimination free card.

Who is the director who will make the housemates’ acting dreams come true? Find out only on the latest episode of Bigg Boss Malayalam season 5. New episodes air on Asianet and Disney+ Hotstar at 9:30 PM from Monday to Friday, and 9 PM on the weekends.
