The announcement of Anil Kapoor as the new host came as a surprise to many fans who were accustomed to Salman Khan’s presence. Reflecting on his new role, Kapoor expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “Bigg Boss OTT and I are a dream team! We’re both young at heart; people often say – jokingly – that I’m reverse aging, but Bigg Boss is – seriously – timeless.”

Adding to his excitement, Kapoor emphasized his dedication to the project, promising to bring his own unique flavour to the show. “Unscripted reality has something for everyone – laughter, drama, and surprising twists, and I can’t wait to bring my own flavour to it,” he said.
