Bigg Boss 15: Meet The Contestants

Bigg Boss 15 is going to be one hell of a roller coaster ride.

With a jungle theme and some real strong contestants entering the house, Bigg Boss 15 is already off to a good start.

Host Salman Khan kicked off the grand premiere with an entertaining performance on his hit song Jungle Hai Aadhi Raat Hai and then gave everyone a tour of the new Bigg Boss house.

The first contestant to enter BB 15 is television actor and anchor Jay Bhanushali.

The celebs entering the house this year are:

 

Tejasswi Prakash is known for her show Swaragini - Jodein Rishton Ke Sur. She also participated in Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 10.

 

Vishal Kotian is known for his shows, Akbar Ka Bal Birbal, Devon Ke Dev.. Mahadev and Mahabharat.

Second runner up Shamita Shetty created quite a stir with her link-up with contestant Raqesh Bapat.

 

Choreographer Nishant Bhat has been associated with dance reality shows like Super Dancer, Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, Dance Deewane and Nach Baliye.

 

Salman's banter with the contestants was fun to watch, especially with Tejasswi Prakash. The actress stood out in the premiere episode along with Karan Kundra and Umar Riaz.

The highlight of the grand premiere was Ranveer Singh who joined Salman on stage and announced his television debut.

Yes, you heard that right!

Ranveer will be hosting the quiz show The Big Picture on Colors TV from October 16.

Ranveer and Salman indulged in some friendly banter and also played the quiz.

After Ranveer's exit, Salman greeted Pratik, Shamita and Nishant on stage and reveals they would directly enter the Bigg Boss house unlike the other contestants who will be staying in the jungle themed area in the house.

 

Once inside, all the contestants warmly greet each other, but soon, the first fight takes place inside the house between Pratik and Umar.

Umar isn't happy with Pratik's arrogant attitude and asks him to chill.

Just when the housemates are getting to know each other, there's a sizzling performance in the house by Mouni Roy.

Mouni also leaves the housemates in a tough spot by asking them to name their three least favourite people on the show.

That's when Jay Bhanushali and Simba get into an argument.

Later, Donal Bisht confronts Vishal for taking her name.

The housemates get to know that Pratik, Shamita and Nishant have special powers and won't have to fight for basic amenities as they would be living inside the luxurious BB house.

With fights and arguments on day 1 itself, Bigg Boss 15 is going to be one hell of a roller coaster ride.
