The list of contestants in the order of entering the house:
For the first time in the seventeen-year history of Bigg Boss, housemates are allowed to use phones during this season. Bigg Boss provided each housemate with a smartphone where they can receive messages from Bigg Boss and communicate with other housemates when permitted. However, only the "Baaharwala" has access to feedback from the outside world.[20]
On the premiere day, Anil Kapoor introduced the "Baaharwala" twist, where one housemate would be designated as the "Baaharwala". This person would receive information and feedback from the outside world until being fired by Bigg Boss. The "Baaharwala” would possess special powers and be immune from evictions, even if they were nominated.[21]

The series premiere episode was reviewed by Grace Cyril for Times Now. She wrote, "Once a powerhouse of entertainment, this season seems to have started on dull note. The High-voltage drama fell flat largely, making it a snooze fest."[25]
Pratidin Time wrote, "While Kapoor exuded his signature suave charm, attempts to engage the audience fell short, perhaps due to peculiar editing choices that diluted the impact, evident in the disjointed laughter track. Even the introduction of the first contestant, the Vada Pav Girl, lacked the anticipated punch."[26]
