The wait is almost over! The madness, the drama, and the pure entertainment of Bigg Boss Telugu is back for a ninth season, and it’s shaping up to be the most explosive one yet.
Mark your calendars for the grand premiere on Saturday, September 7th at 7 PM on Star Maa.
Our favourite host-with-the-most, Akkineni Nagarjuna, is back to steer the ship (and probably break up a few fights) with his signature style. This time, the game has a whole new vibe. The theme is “Ranarangam” (Battlefield), and the tagline says it all: “Eesari Chadarangam Kaadu, Ranarangame!” – meaning, forget chess, this is all-out war.
And for the first time ever, get ready for a double-house format. Double the houses means double the drama, double the alliances, and double the chaos. Buckle up!
But wait… who’s actually going in? The official contestant list is always a tightly guarded secret until the big night, but the rumor mill is working overtime! Based on the buzz, we’re expecting a killer mix of familiar faces and fresh personalities. Here’s the inside scoop on who might be entering the battlefield:
Emmanuel: The hilarious guy from Jabardasth! Known for his killer comic timing, he’s trading the comedy stage for the Bigg Boss arena.
Flora Saini: An actress you’ll recognize, who shared the screen with stars like Venkatesh. She’s been on a break and is looking to make a powerful comeback through Bigg Boss.
Thanuja: A beloved TV soap star from Mudda Mandaram. She’s been out of the spotlight for a bit and is ready to reintroduce herself to audiences.
Suman Shetty: A blast from the past! This comedian from hits like *7/G Brundavan Colony* is stepping back into the limelight.
Bharani Shankar: The guy who can play both sweet and sinister. Famous from the serial Chi La Sow Sravanthi and tons of films, often in negative roles.
Ramya Moksha: You know the viral “Alekhya Chitti” pickles saga? She’s one-half of the famous pickle entrepreneurs who became an internet sensation overnight.
Zubeda: Wife of comedian Ali, a mom of three, and a super-popular YouTuber known for her delicious cooking videos. She’s bringing her skills from the kitchen to the BB house!
Sanjana Galrani: An actress who has worked with top stars like Prabhas and Trisha. After taking time off to raise her two kids, she’s aiming for a major career reboot.
Harshit Reddy: A fresh face on the block! A budding actor and a huge Prabhas fan who even starred in a film produced by Samantha.
Plus, a few commoners will earn their spot through the Agnipariksha pre-show, and there’s always a wildcard entry waiting in the wings to shake things up.
The Grand Premiere is going to be a full-blown event. Expect glamour, performances, Nagarjuna’s iconic hosting, and the moment we finally see the confirmed housemates face-to-face. Get your snacks ready, because this battlefield is about to get messy
