Bigg Boss 14 finale to happen next week?
MUMBAI: Twists and turns abound in Bigg Boss and the show is set to introduce yet another shocker in the upcoming episode.
According to a promo released by the makers of the show, host Salman Khan will be seen informing the housemates that the finale of Bigg Boss 14 will be held in the coming week.
Making the announcement, "Ab scene paltega", Khan will brief the housemates that the finale will be taking place way sooner than they had imagined, and that only four contestants will make it to the climax.
Does this mean that the journey of the other housemates will come to a definite end, making the competition even tougher?
The Weekend ka Vaar episode will also see several guests as a part of an expert panel which will test and advise the housemates. On this panel will be former Bigg Boss contestants Kamya Panjabi and Devoleena Bhattacharjee, Kavita Kaushik's husband Ronnit Biswas, and producer Sanddip Sikchand.
At present, there are nine contestants in the Bigg Boss 14 house — Rubina Dilaik, Abhinav Shukla, , Pavitra Punia, Rahul Vaidya, Nikki Tamboli, Jasmin Bhasin, Aly Goni, Eijaz Khan, and Kavita Kaushik.
MUMBAI: Lights, camera… connection because this time, the game isn’t just about winning, it’s about who’s with you. Sony Pictures Networks India is gearing up to launch a new reality game show, Tum Ho Naa, expanding its unscripted slate with a format that promises both emotion and engagement.
The show will premiere soon on Sony Entertainment Television and stream on Sony LIV, with Rajeev Khandelwal stepping in as host. Known for his measured screen presence and selective choices, Khandelwal’s return to television adds a layer of familiarity and credibility to the upcoming format.
While specific details of the gameplay remain under wraps, the positioning suggests a reality format that leans as much on emotional resonance as it does on competition, an increasingly popular blend in Indian television, where audiences are gravitating towards content that offers both stakes and storytelling.
Khandelwal, reflecting on his return, noted that his choices have often been guided by instinct rather than convention, describing Tum Ho Naa as a project that feels “close to the heart”. His association also signals Sony’s continued focus on anchoring new formats with recognisable faces who bring both relatability and depth.
The launch comes at a time when broadcasters are doubling down on original non-fiction formats to drive appointment viewing, even as digital platforms expand parallel reach. By placing the show across both linear television and OTT, Sony appears to be aiming for a dual-audience strategy capturing traditional viewers while engaging digital-first consumers.
As the countdown to premiere begins, Tum Ho Naa positions itself not just as another game show, but as a reminder that sometimes, the biggest prize on screen isn’t the jackpot, it’s the journey shared along the way.
