Finally BB19 on a good start.” Another commented, “This season looks good and fresh.” A third comment read, “Bigg Boss ka redemption era is going on or what.” One fan added, “Looks like they finally got the budget to buy song licences vs the stupid anthem.” Another praised the casting and wrote, “BB has clearly opened a personality buffet this szn. No pre-made fds, just raw start!”In the previous seasons, fans accused Bigg Boss of being biased towards contestants and even criticised it for interfering in their decisions. However, this year, Bigg Boss has chosen to stay out of the decision-making process, which aligns with the theme “Gharwalon Ki Sarkaar”—handing over the power to the housemates themselves.About Bigg Boss 19On the very first day, Bigg Boss asked contestants to choose a person they felt was unworthy of being a housemate due to having the least interesting personality.
