Mumbai: The much-anticipated Bigg Boss OTT 3 is set to start streaming on JioCinema from June 21, and the first look at the house has been unveiled. Designed by Omung Kumar and Vanita Garud, this year’s house features a fantastical theme with a myriad of unique elements that are set to captivate contestants and viewers alike.
From the very entrance, the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house makes a grand statement. Visitors are greeted by two massive statues standing guard, exuding an aura of majesty and grandeur. To further enhance the enchanting atmosphere, dragons have been incorporated into the design, adding a magical touch that sets the tone for what lies within. The walls of the house are adorned with different faces on each side, creating an illusionary effect that immerses one into the fantasy world. A recurring theme throughout the house is the presence of locks and keys, symbolizing the journey contestants will embark on to unlock new facets of their personalities.
The interior design doesn’t disappoint either. The bedrooms have been conceptualized to resemble a theatre straight out of a fantasy novel, an environment contrived to encourage interaction and bonding among the housemates. This theatrical setting is expected to set a vibrant and dramatic atmosphere, paving the way for intriguing dynamics to evolve throughout the season.
The kitchen area stands out with its quaint vineyard ambiance. Stone walls complement wooden wine barrels, making it resemble a picturesque vineyard setting. Adding a serene touch to the house is a large bridge connecting the living room and storeroom. The bridge is suspended over a carpet with a water print, bringing an element of calm and tranquility to the bustling household.
Omung Kumar, the creative mind behind the house’s transformation, shared insights into the thought process and creativity driving this season’s design. “We wanted the Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 house to be incredibly unique and vibrant. As a designer, I believe in the magic of transformation. Following the success of last year’s sustainability theme, this season posed a fresh challenge to create something equally captivating,” Kumar explained.
Kumar elaborated that the overarching goal was to deliver an unparalleled experience for both contestants and viewers. “In alignment with our theme, we aimed to deliver an experience unlike any other seen before. Our design choices, from incorporating keys and locks to featuring grand dragons and two-sided walls with different faces, all contribute to the magical ambiance. The keys and locks are a personal favorite – they represent how contestants are locked in and have to unlock new aspects of themselves. Each element was carefully chosen to evoke intrigue and surprise.
. I’m thrilled to see how contestants will interact with and be inspired by this imaginative space,” he added.
Bigg Boss OTT, a spin-off of the immensely popular Bigg Boss franchise, debuted on Voot with filmmaker Karan Johar as the host. For the second season, the reins were handed over to Bollywood megastar Salman Khan. This season, however, brings a fresh twist with the charismatic Anil Kapoor stepping into the role of the host.
At a recent press conference for the upcoming season, Kapoor shared his enthusiasm and insights into taking on this new role. “Bigg Boss OTT and I are a dream team! We’re both young at heart; people often say – jokingly – that I’m reverse ageing, but Bigg Boss is – seriously – timeless,” Kapoor said. His infectious energy and charm are expected to bring a new flavor to the show.
Kapoor also shed light on his conversations with Salman Khan, highlighting the camaraderie and mutual admiration between the two Bollywood icons. “Salman ko koi replace nahi kar sakta aur Anil Kapoor ko bhi koi replace nahi kar sakta…bhai (Salman Khan) bhaut khush hai…meri unse baat bhi hui hai …he is very excited and happy knowing that I am doing non-fiction,” Kapoor disclosed, emphasizing the unwavering support and encouragement he received from Khan.
The upcoming season promises to be an exciting amalgamation of imaginative design and compelling human dynamics. The magical setting of the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house, intertwined with Anil Kapoor’s dynamic hosting, is anticipated to deliver an unmatched viewing experience. As contestants step into this fantastical world on June 21, viewers can expect a blend of surprises, drama, and heartfelt moments, all set against a backdrop that is nothing short of a fairytale.
So, mark your calendars and get ready to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Bigg Boss OTT 3, streaming exclusively on JioCinema from June 21.
