The 11th season of reality show Bigg Boss premieres on 1 October. The reality show — an Indian version of international series Celebrity Big Brother — features celebrities locked inside a house for three months under constant camera surveillance, without any gadgets or luxury. It will be back with the eleventh season with Salman as the host. The theme of the upcoming season will revolve around neighbours. [caption id=“attachment_4100199” align=“alignnone” width=“825”]  Bigg Boss 11 is all set to premiere on Sunday. Salman Khan will return as the host to this reality show in which contestants will be locked inside a house for over 100 days[/caption] Firstpost’s Seema Sinha wrote about her tour of the Bigg Boss house here . She writes, “Apparently, each of the contestants will be pitted against each other as padosis or neighbour. The house will reportedly be divided into blocks with each belonging to two inmates. The cameras will keep a tab on the contestants, and this year, 90 cameras will be watching their every move.” “We have more cameras this time as compared to last season. With so many cameras, the house has to look good from every angle. Hence the walls are done up in different ways and also painted with vibrant colours. Then it’s fully lit up all the time,” said the National Award winning director, Omung Kumar who has designed the house. Sinha further writes, “Like the previous years, the house has a swimming pool, a gym and a jail in the lawn area. But this time, the jail has been built underground to make it darker and more frightening. The jail seems to have no amenities other than three string cots. “It is a dangerous looking jail - the kind I had shown in Sarbjit. The ‘prisoners’ can see outside but they will rot inside,” said Kumar, who, along with his team, has taken 55 days to design the house.” Salman Khan will have Judwaa 2 actors Varun Dhawan, Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu as his guests during the opening episode of the upcoming show.

Apparently, Hina Khan has already decided what she’s going to wear on the finale of the show.
“Just like Aamir Khan, a perfectionist,” says Salman Khan.

What’s more entertaining than locking up contestants in a house without access to the world for 90 days? A fight!
Bandgi and Arshi get into a boxing ring and have a mock fight, over the kind of “controversies” they will create in the house.

Overheard somewhere in Mumbai — “It’s always a house party with Salman Khan”
Jyoti Kumari, who is a self-admitted “gaon ki ladki”, is the next contestant. She’s welcomed by Varun Dhawan (who’s taken hosting duties off Salman, for a bit),

At one point, Akash gets onto a mechanical bull, and sings a rap for Salman, which includes calling him, “the king of Bollywood”. He took to riding a bull, with quite a bit of stride, might we admit. A part of his on stage act included saying to the audience, “You say Salman, I say Khan — SALMAN!”
Okay, everyone. We have found our favourite contestant — Rapper, actor and overall entertainer, Akash Dadlani.
He’s full of swag, and the only contestant who is worth a full-blown minute long promo. He talks, and talks, and talks. (They kept him in jail for a while, but he’s been unleashed! Let the entertainment, begin)
“Mujhe ek brand banne ka hai” — Akash Dadalni.
He’s entertaining and so much fun! Watch Akash Anil Dadlani’s antics in the #BB11 premiere, tonight at 9 PM. #BBSneakPeek pic.twitter.com/LTMWL6poFW

Next two contestants are celebrities —
Resident Splitsvilla hottie, Priyanka Sharma.
Future resident Bigg Boss house hotti, VJ Benafsha.
Both make a splashing entry by dancing to a remixed version of Badshaah’s Baby Marwa Ke Manegi.

Things have escalated, ladies and gentlemen — the next contestant is a female Swami Om, “Godwoman” Shivani Durga.
She says that Swami Om misused the Bigg Boss platform, and that he’s a “fraud tantric”.

When one of the “neighbours” Sabyasachi asked Sapna Choudhry, “your concerts in Haryana are considered vulgar, and you get paid money for it too (rough translation)” — Salman shut that down by saying, “toh paise ke bina kyun dance karengi?"
Yes. Correct answer, Salman.
The next contestant, Sapna Choudhry, seems to be a Haryanvi dancer celebrity of some sorts. She makes her entry onto stage dancing a song that sounds oddly like the Bhojpuri sensation, Lollipop Lagelu.
Killer is the word! Isn't Sapna Choudhary one energetic performer? #BiggBoss11 pic.twitter.com/uuKkVfQ2L2
— ColorsTV (@ColorsTV) October 1, 2017
Apart from the contestants, four additional “neighbours” have been chosen – to make thing a tad bit more difficult for the contestants.
-Sabyasachi Satpathy
– Lucinda Nicolas
– Luv Tyagi
– Mehjabi Siddiqui

Salman informs, “Hiten thinks he’s the first contestant in the house. But that’s not the case. There’s someone else in the house — in the Kal Kotri. A jail in the basement of the house”
We meet Akash Dadlani, who is one of the common contestants. He’s so fascinating with his accent, and obsession with rap, that even Salman looks on as Hiten and Akash meet.
The first celebrity contestant is Hiten Tejwani.

Varun Dhawan makes a grand entry dancing around the beautifully decorated interiors of the Bigg Boss house. Taapsee Pannu and Jacqueline Fernandez join him, both looking stunning! Taapse is in a black and blue blouse-and-skirt combo, while Jacqueline is wearing a maroon dress.
Salman joins the trio, dancing to ‘Chalti hai kya 9 se 12’
A Judwaa 2 dose, it is!
Aaaaand, Salman Khan makes an entry on a cycle.
.. What we’re not looking forward to. (But to each their own right?)
