The makers have roped up 13 roommates who will flaunt their “bolder, crazier” avatar to win the trophy and secure a spot on Bigg Boss 15. Big Boss OTT contenders are Shamita Shetty, Neha Bhasin, Raqesh Bapat, Zeeshan Khan, Ridhima Pandit , Karan Nath, Urfi Javed, Divya Agarwal, Akshara Singh, Pratik Sehejpal, Nishant Bhatt, Muskaan Jattana (Moose Jattana) and Milind Gaba.

Speaking of teaming up with Bigg Boss OTT, Karan Johar said he’s always been a fan of the show. However, the filmmaker is clear that he will never be able to survive the game, as he cannot live without his phone. In case he was lucky enough to be joined by friends in the house, Karan chose Kareena Kapoor and Malaika Arora to be his accomplices.

“I don’t mind going into the show with Bebo and Mala. OMG! It would be so much fun with the two inside the house, trapped without phones, â€the host explained.
