Twenty seasons in, Bigg Boss has become more than a reality show. It has become a daily conversation, one that spills from living rooms into social media feeds, group chats and workplaces. As Bigg Boss 20 arrives on September 6 on JioHotstar and Colors TV, the question is no longer whether the format is familiar, but why audiences continue to return to it. The fights, friendships, romances, betrayals and breakdowns may follow a recognisable pattern, but the people inside the house keep making the story unpredictable. And that, perhaps, is the show’s enduring appeal.
