Bigg Boss 18, which has already aroused a good deal of notice in some circles, is now set to commence with Salman Khan returning as long-time host, and, for this season, under tightest security measures. He is known to have a large fan base and be hosting one of India’s most controversial reality shows, and the buzz for the show isn’t just because of its format or its radically changed security arrangements.
Tightened Security for Salman Khan
Salman Khan, who has been the host of Bigg Boss for over 14 years, has also increased his security while filming for the show. This is, however, amidst rising concerns about his safety. Reports state that the actor will be accompanied by 60 security guards at all times. The show makers have also made it a rule to not let outsiders make it onto the sets, thereby further strengthening the security arrangements for the star.
The security upgrades coincide with earlier threats that the Bollywood actor received from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Salman Khan has been receiving such threats for nearly a year, and not only has this view led to increased security becoming a security detail to be designated to him, but it has also enabled him to avail a Y+ category security cover provided by the Indian government.
What to Expect from Bigg Boss 18
An October 6, 2024, date has been set for the premiere of the show, and fans are waiting with baited breath to see what’s in store this season. Promotional clips in which silhouettes of the contesting participants were revealed have set off a certain amount of enthusiasm within the viewers. Salman Khan was recently seen on-set sporting a stylish velvet navy-blue blazer and black pants that further lent a special charm to the grand opening of the show.

Regulatory the contest so far has been actor Nia Sharma, who was announced at the finale of Khatron Ke Khiladi 14.
Safety and Shooting Environment
The sealed security arrangements will not just protect him, but also assist in carrying on with the filming process without impediment. Down through the years Bigg Boss has drawn attention on the stage for the strong dramatic sensations and controversies, by this now the production team is looking to keep the spotlight on the shows’ entertainment value because there is no preparation in evidence of external risks.
With the open threats to Salman and a readiness about Bollywood in general, the decision to elevate security measures was not a decree of unexpectedness. Salman Khan, himself steadfast in the wake of these menances, will keep on shooting and hosting inanition with the same positive energy that has made Bigg Boss into one of India’s favourite entertainment shows.
As the show gears up for its launch, it remains one of the most anticipated events on Indian television, with fans eager to see not only the new contestants but also how the enhanced security measures impact the overall production.
