Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, kicked off in August 2025 and quickly became a fan favorite. Over the past three months, the reality show has delivered high-voltage drama, emotional breakdowns, and unexpected twists. Despite its soaring popularity, recent reports confirm that the show will not be extended beyond its original schedule.
No Extension for Bigg Boss 19
Although speculation about a possible extension had been circulating online, sources close to the production have firmly denied these claims. According to a report by India Today, the makers are committed to wrapping up the season within the planned 15-week timeline. A source clarified, “There are no intentions to prolong the season. Bigg Boss 19 has been successful in every way, but we’re sticking to the original plan. No discussions about an extension have taken place.”
This statement comes amid growing chatter on social media, where fans speculated that the show might continue into January. However, the latest update suggests that the grand finale is expected to air on December 7, 2025, marking the end of a tightly packed season.
Salman Khan’s Schedule Confirms Finale Timeline
Adding weight to the decision, another insider revealed that Salman Khan has already committed to shooting dates for his upcoming film, Battle of Galwan. This scheduling conflict would make any extension logistically difficult. Even if the producers had considered prolonging the show, coordinating with Salman’s film commitments would have posed a significant challenge.
Rishi Negi Praises Salman’s Hosting Style
In an earlier interview, Bigg Boss 19 producer Rishi Negi spoke candidly about Salman’s role as host. He emphasized that Salman brings authenticity and emotional depth to the show. “He doesn’t follow popular opinion,” Negi said. “He speaks his mind. Whether he agrees or disagrees with a contestant’s actions, he makes his stance clear. That kind of honesty adds a unique flavor to the show.”
Negi also highlighted Salman’s active engagement with the contestants. He doesn’t just host; he participates emotionally and intellectually, offering guidance and critique when needed.
For viewers who want to stay updated, Bigg Boss 19 streams daily on JioHotstar at 9 PM and airs on Colors TV at 10:30 PM. The show continues to attract massive viewership, thanks to its unpredictable format and dynamic cast.
Double Eviction Shakes the House
In a recent episode, the Bigg Boss house witnessed a dramatic double eviction. According to a post on X (formerly Twitter), Salman Khan announced that Gaurav and Farrhana were safe from elimination. Meanwhile, Pranit More, who had temporarily exited the house due to a medical emergency, returned and was granted a special privilege by Salman.
Pranit was given the power to save one contestant from eviction. The choices were Ashnoor, Neelam Giri, and Abhishek Bajaj. Ultimately, Pranit chose to save Ashnoor, leading to Neelam and Abhishek’s exit from the show. The tweet added that Pranit had missed his captaincy duties due to his health setback, which prompted Salman to offer him this unique opportunity.
Pranit Returns to the Game
After a brief absence, Pranit is now back in the Bigg Boss house. His return has added a fresh layer of excitement to the show, especially as the finale approaches. With only a few weeks left, fans can expect more twists, emotional confrontations, and strategic gameplay.
As Bigg Boss 19 heads into its final stretch, the buzz around the show continues to grow. Despite rumors and fan theories, the producers remain firm on their decision to conclude the season as planned. With the finale slated for December 7, viewers are gearing up for an explosive end to one of the most talked-about seasons in recent years.
