Bigg Boss is back! The celebrity reality show premiered on VOOT last night and Karan Johar amped up the fun element with his hosting skills.

It kicked off with Karan burning the dance the floor and then introducing us to an interesting line-up of contestants.

Apart from Karan, Malaika Arora adds some extra tadka to the show.

But while she looked stunning in her shimmery sari, Malaika hardly added any entertainment quotient to the premiere night. The whole segment about her giving gyaan to the female participants to choose the right connection was simply not needed.

This year, the contestants are Raqesh Bapat, Shamita Shetty, Millind Gaba, Neha Bhasin, Karan Nath, Divya Agarwal, Ridhima Pandit, Zeeshan Khan, Pratik Sehajpal, Nishant Bhat, Urfi Javed, Moose Jattana and Akshara Singh.

Shamita, a contestant on the third season of Bigg Boss, returns to the show.

The fireworks start almost immediately, as Pratik gets into an argument with almost everybody in the house, including Karan Johar!

After a point, his behaviour seemed erratic and annoying.

Social media star Urfi seems to be the Shehnaaz Gill of Bigg Boss this year whereas Raqesh Bapat seems to be the most popular amongst the female contestants.

Since this year's theme is #StayConnected, the female contestants are given a chance to choose their 'connection' with whom they will play the game for the next six weeks and reach the finale.

Shamita chooses Raqesh as her connection and Neha Bhasin picks Millind Gaba.

Bhojpuri actress Akshara goes for Pratik and Urfi selects her good friend and Kumkum Bhagya actor Zeeshan Khan.

Social media influencer Moose Jattana pairs up with dancer Nishant Bhat and Ridhima Pandit and Karan Nath form a connection.

Since Divya Agarwal doesn't find a connection, Karan Johar announces that she is automatically nominated for this week.

After all the naach-gaana and fun with Karan Johar, the contestants make their way into the BB house.

The girls discuss Pratik and how he is aggressive for no reason.

Soon Pratik and Divya lock horns as he hears her talking about him. The two had done a reality show together few years ago and things had not ended well between them then.

In the heat of the moment, Pratik throws his food on the floor.

The other contestants ask him not to waste the food and Pratik apologises for the same.

Raqesh and Karan try to calm Pratik down.

With so much drama on Day 1 itself, it looks like Bigg Boss OTT is going to be crazy explosive.

So who will have the biggest fights this year?

Who will fall in love?

And who will survive till the finale?

Well, only time will tell.
