Bigg Boss Telugu's ninth season, which fans had been waiting for, started on Star Maa on September 7, 2025, and was also available to view on JioHotstar. Actor Nagarjuna Akkineni is coming back after a great run as host in Season 3. People now think of the Telugu version of the popular reality show when they think of his charm and authority.

A New Structure with Regular People

This year, the producers made a big adjustment to the concept by letting average people live with superstars. They were picked through Bigg Boss Telugu 9 Agnipariksha, a two-week preparatory program hosted by Sreemukhi. Several people tried to get a spot in the home, and former participants Abijeet, Bindu Madhavi, and Navdeep assessed the process. After multiple rounds of evaluation, a few contestants who weren't famous were chosen to join the star lineup. This got people interested in how the stars would interact and how things would work out.


Some of the best things about Sanjjanaa Galrani

One of the famous people coming into this season is actress Sanjjanaa Galrani. She has worked in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada films. She made her first cinematic appearance in the Telugu film Soggadu. Before that, she became famous in Kannada with the 2006 version of Murder, Ganda Hendathi. In Puri Jagannadh's Bujjigadu (2008), she later featured opposite Prabhas and Trisha. Later, she was in big movies like Casanova (2012), which starred Mohanlal, and Dandupalya 2 (2017).

In addition to movies, Sanjjanaa is a well-known personality on TV. Her celebrity status went beyond regional cinema when she starred on the Hindi reality show Mujhse Shaadi Karoge and the first season of Bigg Boss Kannada.

Life and Controversies

It was a big blow when Sanjjanaa was arrested in 2020 for a drug case linked to the Kannada film business. She was held for three months before being released on bond. She maintained working in the entertainment sector and being seen, even though there was a lot of talk about her.

Sanjjanaa is married to Azeez Pasha, a vascular surgeon, and they have a small boy together.
