Mumbai: Salman Khan launched Bigg Boss 15 with typical flamboyance and style on Saturday night.

The Bollywood superstar opened the season with a power-packed performance, dancing to the tunes of some of his popular tracks like ‘Swag Se Swagat’ and ‘Jungle Hai Aadhi Raat Hai’.

After the maiden episode, the reality show will be aired on Colors from 9.30 pm to 10.30 pm, from Monday to Friday.

All eyes in the House will be on Shilpa Shetty’s sister Shamita Shetty. She was a contestant in Bigg Boss Season 3, in 2009 and, recently, was adjudged second runner-up in Bigg Boss OTT.

Among other participants this season are Pratik Sehajpal, Karan Kundrra, Nishant Bhat, Tejasswi Prakash, Umar Riaz and Simba Nagpal.

Rhea Chakraborty, however, dismissed rumours doing the rounds that she had been approached for participation in the controversial reality show.

Bollywood actress Rhea, who was arrested last year in connection with the death of boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput, clarified on Saturday that she wasn’t part of the Salman-hosted show.

“I believe there are some rumours about me being part of TV show Bigg Boss, this is just to clarify that there is no truth to such rumours. I am not a part of Bigg Boss,” Rhea wrote in her Instagram stories.

Salman, who introduced the contestants, was later joined by Ranveer Singh as the special guest.

Ranveer is expected to use the Big Boss 15 platform to promote his own show The Big Picture, which will premiere on October 16. It will be Ranveer’s maiden TV project.
