Twists[edit]

New twist - phones[edit]

For the first time in the seventeen-year history of Bigg Boss, housemates are allowed to use phones during this season. Bigg Boss provided each housemate with a phone where they can receive messages from Bigg Boss and communicate with other housemates when permitted. However, only the "Janta Ka Agent" has access to feedback from the outside world.[22]

Janta Ka Agent[edit]

On the premiere day, host Anil Kapoor told contestant Sana Sultaan Khan that she would be the "Janta Ka Agent" and receive information about the outside world until being fired to have the power and be replaced.[23] The "Janta Ka Agent” would possess a special power and be immune from evictions, even if they were nominated.

On Day 2, a debate took place among six housemates. The topic of discussion was centered around the contributions and participation of Armaan, Lovekesh, and Neeraj in the show. Ranvir, Sai, and Sana S were assigned the role of questioning the involvement of these three housemates in the house's matters, essentially acting as the "prosecuting" side in this debate format.
The defendants, Armaan, Lovekesh, and Neeraj, answered questions and countered the arguments brought forth by the "prosecuting" side. The remaining housemates formed the audience and were permitted to question each speaker as well. Deepak moderated the debate.
