Anil Kapoor on hosting Bigg Boss OTT: 'Feels like going to school, trying something exciting'

Bigg Boss OTT 3 will premiere on JioCinema Premium from June 21 with actor Anil Kapoor as the new host.

Anil, who famously played a reality show host in Danny Boyle's Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire, said he cannot wait to bring his flavour to the unscripted reality show that features contestants living isolated from society for a period of time with cameras watching their every move.

“Bigg Boss OTT and I are a dream team. We are both young at heart; people often say, jokingly, that I am reverse ageing, but Bigg Boss is seriously timeless. It feels a bit like going back to school, trying something new and exciting. Having said that, I have always approached all my projects with sincerity and a commitment to hard work and I'm going to bring that same energy to Bigg Boss,” the actor said in a statement.

The previous seasons of the show were hosted by Karan Johar and Salman Khan, respectively.
