As the rumoured list continues to evolve, it remains to be seen who among these speculated names will actually make it to the Bigg Boss house. Fans are already fervently expressing their opinions and hopes on various social media platforms, setting the stage for what promises to be another riveting season of Bigg Boss OTT.
