Bigg Boss 19 kicked off with a bang on 24 August 2025, bringing fresh faces, fiery personalities and the bold theme “Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar” to viewers across India. Streaming at 9:00 PM, the show has once again set the stage for drama, shifting alliances and power games inside television’s most unpredictable house.

Among the contestants this year is Zeishan Qadri , the actor, writer and filmmaker who shot to fame with the cult classic Gangs of Wasseypur . Known for his raw storytelling and fearless persona, Zeishan is stepping into the Bigg Boss house with the promise of bringing the same intensity that has defined his work on screen.

Before entering the house, Zeishan opened up about the theme of the show and what viewers can expect from him. “I am pretty interested in politics and that might come out in the public domain in the upcoming years. You don’t have to actually do politics, you just have to be honest. This is the best politics. I feel my quality of not being scared to say things will come most handy to me inside the house. Bebaak raho.”

Reflecting on his career and his journey from Wasseypur to the Bigg Boss stage, Zeishan added, “Gangs of Wasseypur was the experience of my life. What I witnessed, I had written in there. Now, I am entering the Bigg Boss house, which is comparatively normal and quiet. There are rules and regulations. I was born and brought up in a jungle. There are no rules. There are people who are born to break rules. At least Bigg Boss has cultured beings. Here, you are in front of a camera. In Wasseypur, people knew that cameras shouldn’t be switched on, otherwise there would be a bigger fight.”

The show also features Gaurav Khanna , Ashnoor Kaur, Tanmya Mittal Awez Darbar, Negma Mirajkar , Amaal Malik, Nehal Chudasama , Kunickaa Sadanand amongst others.
