Mumbai: One of Marathi television’s most celebrated and talked-about reality franchises, Bigg Boss Marathi, is set to return with an all-new season, promising grand entertainment, heightened drama, and an immersive viewing experience. The much-anticipated Season 6 will premiere with a grand launch on 11 January at 8 PM on Colors Marathi and JioHotstar, with subsequent episodes airing every night at the same time.
This season introduces a bold new theme — ‘The door will open & destiny’s game shall change!’ — reflected in a completely redesigned house with a fresh structure and high-stakes gameplay. Over a 100-day journey, contestants will live under the constant watch of over 100 cameras, navigating evolving relationships, friendships, love, conflict, and intense competition.
The format is owned and produced by Banijay Asia & EndemolShine India, continuing the franchise’s legacy of delivering culturally rooted yet world-class reality entertainment.
Returning as the host is popular Hindi-Marathi superstar Riteish Deshmukh, fondly known as Bhau, who won widespread acclaim last season for his bold, honest, and charismatic hosting style. Seamlessly balancing the roles of friend, mentor, and mirror, Riteish is set to once again guide contestants and engage audiences with his unmistakable Maharashtrian swag.
Speaking about hosting the sixth season, Riteish Deshmukh said, “The Bigg Boss Marathi house brings a new twist and a new challenge every single day. I’m truly happy to be hosting the show once again. This year, no one knows which door will change whose destiny. The real fun of this show lies in revealing the hidden sides of the contestants to the audience. This season will have chaos, emotions, drama, and loads of fun. Get ready for Season 6—because this year, Bigg Boss Marathi will be bolder, more unpredictable, and authentically Marathi.”
Highlighting the franchise’s growing strength, Sumanta Bose, Head – Entertainment Business, Star Plus, Star Bharat and Star Utsav, East and West Cluster, JioStar, said, “Bigg Boss Marathi has grown into one of the strongest and most loved regional reality franchises in the country. Season after season, the show has built deep emotional connect by staying rooted in Maharashtrian culture while delivering world-class entertainment. With Season 6, we are raising the bar further, with a bold new theme, sharper gameplay, and a host who truly understands the pulse of the audience. Riteish Deshmukh’s return adds warmth, honesty and gravitas to the format, making the experience even more engaging. We are excited to bring audiences a grand new season that will spark conversations, emotions and togetherness across Maharashtra.”
Deepak Dhar, Founder and Group CEO, Banijay Asia & EndemolShine India, added, “Bigg Boss Marathi has evolved beyond being just a regional reality show to become one of the most influential formats in the country, resonating with audiences not only across Maharashtra but nationwide. Season 5 was a milestone that went beyond viewership to become a powerful emotional and cultural conversation. Building on that momentum, Season 6 introduces the theme ‘दार उघडणार, नशिबाचा गेम पालटणार!’, adding a compelling layer of unpredictability and high-stakes decision-making that is deeply integrated into the house, tasks, and gameplay. With continued innovation, a diverse and relatable mix of contestants, and Riteish Deshmukh’s authentic connect as host, the new season promises a more immersive and engaging experience for viewers.”
The show continues to attract strong brand interest, with Danube Properties and Santoor Soap as Co-Powered sponsors; MYK Laticrete Tile Adhesive, Pitambari Dishwash Gel, P. N. Gadgil and Sons (Since 1832), Gemini Cooking Oil, and Cotton King as Special Partners; and Society Tea as the Associate Sponsor.
A major highlight of Season 6 is the house itself — spread across 13,000 square feet and designed with multiple doors that act as strategic game-changers. Housing over 16 popular personalities, the space is more than just a residence; it is the biggest weapon in the game. Behind every door lies a surprise, challenge, or moment capable of altering a contestant’s destiny.
With weekly nominations based on votes from contestants and viewers, only one contestant will survive till the finale to be crowned the winner of Bigg Boss Marathi Season 6 — as the doors open once again and destinies are set to change.
