Salman Khan is officially back in Bigg Boss mode.
The actor has begun filming for the grand premiere of Bigg Boss 20, and his first look from the set is already making the rounds online. Dressed in a black T-shirt, waistcoat, jeans and a cowboy hat, Salman kept things relaxed but unmistakably in character for the show’s big launch. His familiar confidence on the Bigg Boss stage has once again become part of the pre-premiere buzz.
Salman Khan Returns to the Bigg Boss Stage
Salman’s association with Bigg Boss has become one of the longest-running host-show relationships on Indian television, so his return naturally becomes part of the season’s identity.
For the premiere shoot, he was seen posing for photographers outside the set before heading in to film. The first-look images show him in a casual black ensemble with a cowboy-inspired twist, which gives the appearance a slightly more playful edge than the usual formal premiere styling.
The look may be simple, but the timing matters. With the new season about to begin, even a few behind-the-scenes photos are enough to get fans talking about what Salman will bring to the opening episode.
The Bigg Boss 20 House Is Going Full Fantasy
The new season is not playing safe with its house design either.
This year’s Bigg Boss house takes inspiration from Alice in Wonderland, mixing fantasy elements with bright, surreal décor. The 10,000-square-foot space reportedly includes a shark-themed pool, a giant pink teapot turned into seating, a hot-air-balloon-style lounge area and two secret rooms.
There are also 104 cameras keeping watch over the contestants, which is exactly the kind of detail that reminds you how little privacy anyone inside the house is going to have.
The whimsical design gives the season a much lighter visual mood, even if the drama inside the house is likely to be anything but light.
Contestant Speculation Is Already Building
As always, the official contestant lineup is still one of the biggest talking points ahead of the premiere.
Several names have been circulating, including television actors, reality personalities, social media creators and regional stars. Reports have linked names such as Mahhi Vij, Khushi Dubey, Aman Gandhi, Amrapali Dubey, Geeta Basra, Faisal Khan and Kushal Tanwar to the season, though the final lineup has not been officially confirmed.
That uncertainty is part of the fun before every Bigg Boss premiere. Half the conversation is about who is actually entering, and the other half is about who was only ever a rumour.
When and Where to Watch Bigg Boss 20
Bigg Boss 20 is scheduled to premiere on September 6, 2026.
The show will stream on JioHotstar at 9 PM, followed by its television broadcast on Colors TV at 10:30 PM.
With Salman back on set, a fantasy-themed house ready to open and the contestant list still keeping fans guessing, the season already has all the familiar ingredients for a high-energy launch.
Glamcheck Take
Salman Khan’s first look does not need to do too much.
The cowboy hat, black waistcoat and that familiar Bigg Boss swagger are enough to signal one thing clearly: the drama is about to begin again.
