Excitement is mounting around the upcoming season of Bigg Boss 19 and actress Munmun Dutta, well-known for her role as Babita Ji in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, is among the first names making headlines. According to a report from a leading daily, the makers of the reality show have approached her once again to join the new season.
This is not the first time Munmun Dutta has been in talks for Bigg Boss. She has reportedly been invited multiple times over the years but each time she chose not to participate. With these new reports circulating, fans are now curious if 2025 could finally be the year she steps into the house of Bigg Boss hosted by Salman Khan.
There has been no official confirmation from either Munmun or the show’s producers but fan communities and online platforms are already filled with speculation. Many believe her entry could bring the right mix of drama, emotion and entertainment that makes Bigg Boss so compelling to watch.
The buzz around Munmun’s potential participation comes shortly after it was confirmed that Bigg Boss will return for its 19th season. For a while, uncertainty surrounded the future of the show, especially following reports of a disagreement between Colors TV and production house Banijay Asia. This had sparked rumours that the upcoming season might be shelved.
However, a report by an entertainment portal recently stated that Bigg Boss 19 is officially happening and will now be produced by Endemol Shine India. Salman Khan is also set to return as the host and is expected to shoot the promo by the end of June. The show is tentatively scheduled to premiere in July, although an official announcement is still awaited.
Meanwhile, Munmun Dutta continues to be a key part of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah since its inception. Her on-screen bond with Jethalal, played by Dilip Joshi, remains one of the most cherished aspects of the sitcom. Last year, rumours surfaced about her secret engagement to co-star Raj Anadkat but she denied the claims.
Let’s see when Mumnum Dutta will clear the air regarding her participation in Bigg Boss 19?
