Mumbai, August 12

Superstar Salman Khan is all set to return as the host of Bigg Boss Hindi Season 20.

The upcoming season is said to promise to bring a major change to the way the game is played. The makers, Endemole Shine, have unveiled the show's latest promo, introducing the intriguing concept of 'Extra Jeevan Daan'.

Talking about the new theme, Salman said, "Bigg Boss mein har saal game badalta hai. Is baar sirf game nahi, khelne ka tareeka bhi badalne wala hai. 'Jeevan Daan' sunne mein jitna seedha lagta hai, utna hai nahi. Baaki, ghar ke andar pata chal hi jaayega."

(The game changes every year on Bigg Boss. This time, it's not just the game, but the way of playing it that is going to change. 'Jeevan Daan' sounds as straightforward as it seems, but it isn't. The rest will become clear once you enter the house)

The promo was also shared by Salman Khan on his social media account.

He wrote, "Two lives ka vardaan for all gharwale, meri jaan #BiggBoss starts 6th September on @jiotvhotstar and @colorstv."

The promo opens with an intense face-off between two warriors inside what appears to be an arena. As the confrontation builds, Salman makes a dramatic entry and introduces the season's central twist, an additional 'Jeevan Daan' or life for the contestants.

Sharing a glimpse of the upcoming season, Salman also teased that the twist is not as simple as it may sound.

The promo hints that every contestant could have an additional opportunity to stay in the game, although the makers have not yet revealed exactly how the 'Extra Jeevan Daan' will work or when it can be used.

Bigg Boss Hindi Season 20 premieres September 6.

Seriously, har saal same promo, same drama, same dialogues. 'Badlega game' wali baatein purani ho gayi. Phir bhi dekhenge kyunki Bigg Boss ke bina TV adhoora hai! 😅 Bas is baar chawal mat khilaiyega, kuch naya dikhao.

Mujhe toh bas Salman ka screen presence dekhne ka maza aata hai. Chahe game kaisa bhi ho, unki entry aur dialogue delivery top notch hai. 'Extra Jeevan Daan' sounds like a great twist – maybe this time elimination ke baad wapas aa sakte hain? Let's see.

Honestly, Bigg Boss has become too predictable. Salman bhai ka dialogue "khelne ka tareeka badlega" – it's the same thing every year! But I'll still watch because it's a guilty pleasure. The promo looks cinematic though, nice production! 🎬

Bhai, is baar Season 20 hai, toh expect toh bahut hai! 'Extra Jeevan Daan' ka matlab shayad contestants ko doobi baar jeene ka mauka milega. Lekin yaar, promo mein Salman ki entry dekh ke goosebumps aa gaye. Bas contestants aache ho! 🤞
