Actor Anil Kapoor sparks excitement among fans with a recent post hinting at hosting the eagerly anticipated reality show Bigg Boss in his signature ‘Jhakaas’ style.
Anil took to his social media and shared, “Suna hai Bigg Boss OTT 3 ka host bada good looking hai.”
The show’s creators once again stirred speculation by releasing a promo that strongly suggests Anil Kapoor as Salman Khan’s replacement.
Posting on Instagram on Sunday, Jio Cinema shared the images and wrote, “Tell us if you’ve ever seen such a ‘good looking’ silhouette host #BiggBossOTT3 coming this June on JioCinema Premium.”
Fans quickly reacted, guessing Anil Kapoor in the comments section, with many dropping heart emojis and mentioning potential contestants.
The web series, exclusively streaming on JioCinema, is set to launch in June.
The announcement was made through an intriguing minute-long promo released on Wednesday via Jio Cinema’s official Instagram account.
The teaser offered a tantalizing glimpse into the drama-packed world of Bigg Boss OTT, featuring iconic moments from previous seasons. From intense showdowns to unforgettable catchphrases, the promo promised a season that will surpass all expectations.
Accompanied by the promo, Jio Cinema added a caption, “Bhule naa bhulaaye Jane wala season hai bbott2 Raosahab ki wajah se toh ott ki value huii.”
The teaser caption, “Ye season hoga khaas, Ek Dum Jhakaas,” hinted at Anil Kapoor replacing Salman Khan as the host of the show.
The excitement surrounding the new season peaked earlier in April when Endemol Shine India, the production company behind the show, teased fans with a graphic poster featuring host Salman Khan.
Bigg Boss OTT, a spin-off of the immensely popular Bigg Boss franchise, first premiered on Voot with filmmaker Karan Johar as the host. However, Bollywood megastar Salman Khan took over as host for the second season.

“In an adrenaline-fueled action drama, Subedaar Arjun Singh grapples with civilian life, navigating a strained relationship with his daughter, and societal dysfunction. The man who once fought for the nation must now fight enemies within to protect his home and family,” reads the official synopsis of the project.
