Bigg Boss House

Photos of the season's house were revealed on October 9, 2015.  The "chalet-style house, where contestants on the ninth edition of the reality TV show will compete for the coveted trophy and prize money, was designed by "Mary Kom" director Omung Kumar, producer of "Bigg Boss Nine", said Deepak Dhar, Managing Director, Endemol Shine India.

Sections of the house are replicated to depict locations from history and around the world. The exterior of the house is designed to recreate the Garden of Eden.  It has a fortune teller machine and an elaborate canopy. The kitchen incorporates much of the sculpture and art pieces from the architecture of Sardinia, while the bathroom area follows the glitzy Las Vegas theme.

The bathroom walls are lined with mirrors and most of the furniture is dark red. The bedrooms all contain double beds and the confession room is located between the kitchen and living area, as in every series since 2011, with a royal themed chair.  For the first time, a Housemate Wall with LED screens has been installed in the house to keep track of the status of the housemates.
