The much-awaited Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 is officially confirmed to premiere on September 7, 2025, with actor Akkineni Nagarjuna returning to anchor the show once again. The reality show is expected to kick off with renewed house rules, unfamiliar tasks, and a mix of celebrity and civilian participants.
Unlike previous seasons, this edition includes a notable shift — the makers extended audition calls to the public, and the response has reportedly crossed several thousand video submissions. This strategic inclusion of commoners has added to the pre-season buzz.
