Bigg Boss 19 kicked off with exactly the kind of chaos everyone expects: fights, tears, and a few jaw-droppers thrown in for good measure.
Salman Khan’s back as host, and the premiere on August 24, 2025, was a full-blown spectacle. The lineup’s a mixed bag: actors, social media stars, and TV faces, all tossed into the same pressure cooker. Barely a week in, and things have already spiralled.
Bigg Boss 19 Nominations
First week, first nominations, and it’s already a battlefield. Bigg Boss called everyone into the assembly room for nominations—straight to the point, no sugarcoating.
Contestants had to pick who they thought didn’t deserve to stick around, and, well, that went about as smoothly as you’d expect. Arguments broke out, accusations flew, and emotions ran high.
Tanya Mittal got nominated by both Pranit More and Mridul Tiwari, which hit her hard. She couldn’t hold back the tears. Awez broke down, too.
Meanwhile, Farrhana Bhatt, tucked away in the secret room, got to weigh in on the nominations. Her insights stirred the pot even more. When the dust settled, seven names were up for eviction: Neelam Giri, Gaurav Khanna, Zeishan Quadri, Abhishek Bajaj, Pranit More, Tanya Mittal, and Natalia Janoszek.
