The first season of Bigg Boss OTT, hosted by filmmaker Karan Johar, premiered exclusively on a digital platform. Last year, Salman Khan, the original Bigg Boss host, returned for season 2. This year, fans anticipated his return, but due to his filming schedule for “Sikandar” with Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor has taken over as the host for Bigg Boss OTT 3. Despite this change, fans were optimistic about the upcoming season. However, the introduction of the first contestant has left them skeptical.
Earlier today, the first promo for Bigg Boss OTT 3 was released online.
The contestant, introduced as ‘Teekhi Mirchi’, had her face concealed. Fans quickly speculated that she is Chandrika Dixit, popularly known as Vada Pav Girl. In the promo, she mentions prioritizing her family and work and responds to her critics. Chandrika declares her intent to showcase her personality on Bigg Boss OTT 3.

The reveal has not been well-received. One displeased fan commented,
“There was a time when BB was a celebrity show. Then came ‘OTT’ for YouTubers. Now you’ve stooped so low to bring a viral vada pav seller. Why would we want to see her on screen? No journey, nothing! Disappointing. Losing your charm and viewership @officialjiocinema.”
Another remarked,
“Bigg Boss was a hit when famous TV actors participated. Now it’s full of chapri log.”
A third viewer added,
“Fill it with all chapris,” while another predicted, “Floppest season ever bro, floppest season ever.”
Bigg Boss OTT season 3 will start streaming on June 21. After Vada Pav Girl, who do you think will be the next contestant to enter the house?
