Will Rithvik Dhanjani Compete With Bigg Boss 18 Contestants?

Bigg Boss 18, hosted by Salman Khan, is set to premiere on October 6, featuring new contestants, a fresh house theme, and exciting twists. Since the announcement of this season, various reports about potential contestants have circulated online. One such report suggested that TV actor Rithvik Dhanjani would be participating in this edition. However, the actor, known for his appearances in numerous reality TV shows, dismissed these claims as "false news."

In an Instagram post, Rithvik reshared a post that labeled him a confirmed contestant for Bigg Boss 18, stating, "Not my cup of tea; too much work to get locked up, and I prefer it that way! I kindly request the media not to create incorrect headlines with my name-there are plenty of good things to discuss."

The first promo for BB18, featuring host Salman Khan, was released earlier this month, introducing the theme "Time Ka Tandav." In the promo, Salman explained that while the Bigg Boss eye has traditionally focused on the present, this season will also delve into the past and future.

This marks the 15th consecutive season hosted by the iconic actor. In addition to the television broadcast, Bigg Boss 18 will also be available for streaming on JioCinema, following Salman's recent hosting of the concluded season of Bigg Boss OTT.

The previous edition of Bigg Boss was won by stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui.
