The ninth season began on October 5, 2025, with 20 contestants entering the Bigg Boss house. Over time, friendships broke, new bonds formed, and strong rivalries came out in the open. In the end, only four reached the finale: Divya Ganesh, Sabarinathan, Vikkals Vikram and Aurora Sinclair.

Earlier in the week, folk singer Gana Vinoth Kumar left the show after choosing the money box task, taking home Rs 18 lakh.

Season 9 was also Vijay Sethupathi's second season as host. He took over from Kamal Haasan who had hosted the show for seven seasons since it began in 2017.

Just who is Divya Ganesh?

Divya Ganesh started her acting journey in 2015 with the Tamil serial Keladi Kanmani. Later, she worked in popular shows like Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa, Lakshmi Vandhachu, Baakiyalakshmi, Sumangali, and Chellamma. She also worked in Telugu television with the serial Bhagyarekha in 2019.
