Anil Kapoor has made a successful digital debut as the host of Bigg Boss OTT Season 3, surpassing previous viewership records set by Salman Khan in Season 2, according to a recent Ormax report.
Since its premiere on June 21 on JioCinema, Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 has emerged as the most-watched Indian unscripted show of the first half of 2024, attracting over 17 million viewers within three weeks.
Salman Khan, focusing on his upcoming film “Sikandar” directed by AR Murugadoss, opted out of hosting Season 3, paving the way for Anil Kapoor to take over hosting duties. Ormax’s survey revealed that the third season under Anil Kapoor’s helm garnered 5.3 million views in its opening weekend, compared to 2.4 million for Season 2.
The show’s popularity reflects a broader trend in the OTT non-fiction genre, with diverse formats like “The Great Indian Kapil Show,” “Shark Tank India Season 3,” and others gaining traction alongside Bigg Boss OTT.
Featuring a diverse lineup including Ranvir Shorey, Lovekesh Kataria, Sana Sultan, and others, Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 has solidified Anil Kapoor’s presence in the digital space while he prepares for his upcoming film “Subedaar” and rumored roles in the YRF Spy Universe and sequels like “War 2” and “Pathaan 2.”
