Speculations surrounding 'Bigg Boss OTT' Season 3 premiere
Rumors about the third season of Bigg Boss OTT have been circulating for several weeks. The show, known for its controversies and large fan base, left viewers eagerly awaiting its return. While initially reports suggested that the show may return on May 15, last week an Indian Express report cited insider quotes to claim a third season was not coming. The goal was to make sure audiences don't get saturated with back-to-back OTT and television versions of the same show.
Rumored participants declined 'Bigg Boss OTT 3'
Vicky Jain, a participant from Bigg Boss 17, confirmed in an interview with Pinkvilla that he will not be returning to the show. He stated his satisfaction with his previous journey on the show and saw no need for a return. Similarly, Nyrraa Banerji, known by Khatron Ke Khiladi 13, dismissed rumors of her participation in the upcoming season.

While no official confirmation has been made regarding the contestant lineup for Bigg Boss OTT 3, reports suggest that negotiations are underway with several celebrities.
