In perhaps the most sci-fi turn of events ever, Bigg Boss Season 19 is said to be set to bring in a first-of-its-kind contestant and she’s not human. The internet is abuzz with news of Habubu, a UAE-based viral AI robot, who is said to be entering the Bigg Boss house this season. If true, this would represent a sensational shift in the show’s format combining reality TV with advanced surrealism direct from Black Mirror.
Bigg Boss 19’s New Contestant
While the last contestant list remains a secret, India Forums claim that the Habubu robot, created in the form of an emotive doll with emotional intelligence and multilinguality, may soon become a Bigg Boss contestant. She has already gained social media fame with those big, doll-like eyes, shiny Indian attire, and that modern mask that makes her nearly look macabre.
What makes Habubu different is her technology. She’s said to be equipped with cutting-edge conversation AI, able to detect emotions, hold substantive conversation, and even carry out light household chores. She reportedly speaks seven languages including Hindi and is engineered to fit right in with home setups.
To ensure fairness in the competition, insiders disclose that the show’s challenges are being specifically reworked. The fear is that Habubu’s accuracy and speed would provide an unfair advantage over the human players. In a game where strategy, endurance, and drama drive the show, her inclusion could make the show more exciting or ruin it altogether.

Interestingly, rumors of a potential romantic subplot between Habubu and a contestant have also begun circulating. Although unfounded, the suggestion of a human-AI romance within the Bigg Boss house has already inspired wild speculation and memes online.
A recent report was also being circulated online which revealed that few ex-spiltsvilla contestants will also be a part of the show. Which is contrasting to the earlier news that no influencer or creator will be a part of the show this season.
