Send Push
The much-anticipated Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 is officially in motion, with a striking teaser featuring superstar Mohanlal released ahead of the full promo. The teaser, shared by Asianet, has already generated significant buzz among fans for its dramatic and cinematic approach. In it, Mohanlal is seen riding a Bullet motorcycle into a garage setting, his black shirt and mundu adding to the intense visual. The number plate on his bike and the time on his watch both read “BB 7,” symbolically marking the beginning of the new season. As the teaser concludes, he looks into the camera and utters "Vada" (Come), a powerful nod that instantly reminded viewers of his role in Lucifer.

This is the first time a teaser has been released before the show’s official promo, creating heightened anticipation. The full promo, which is expected to reveal the season's theme and tagline, will be launched soon. According to Filmibeat, the seventh season is likely to premiere in August 2025, though an official date is still awaited.


Casting for Commoners in Full Swing

In a move that continues the trend from recent seasons, Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 will once again feature both celebrities and commoners. Asianet recently announced that applications are open for the general public. Interested individuals can apply by submitting a three-minute video, up to 50MB, via the casting portal (bb7.jiohotstar.com). To be eligible, applicants must follow Asianet and MyG on Instagram and explain why they deserve a place in the Bigg Boss house.


The show began including non-celebrities starting with Season 5, which featured Gopika Gopi. Season 6 also saw commoner entries like Nandana, Nishana N, and Resmin Bai, a move that has added diversity and unpredictability to the show. The trend will continue into Season 7, as the interview process for new participants is currently underway.

Speculation Grows Around Celebrity Contestants

With the teaser out, attention has turned to the potential lineup of contestants. While there is no official confirmation yet, social media users and fan communities have been speculating about names such as Anumol, Adithyan Jayan, and Renu Sudhi. The combination of familiar faces and fresh entries is expected to keep audiences hooked.

Mohanlal, who has hosted every season since the show’s launch in 2018, is once again set to anchor the proceedings. His continued presence is seen as a major strength for the franchise, drawing in viewers with his strong screen presence and rapport with contestants.

His announcement was made via a video post on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, in coordination with Asianet. The video, featuring his stylish entry, has received praise for its production quality and Mohanlal’s commanding screen presence. Viewers flooded the comments section with excitement, with some even comparing the teaser’s impact to a movie-level reveal.

Busy Schedule for Mohanlal

Beyond the Bigg Boss set, Mohanlal remains active in cinema. Following L2: Empuraan and Thudarum, he has also been seen in Kannappa and has a slate of upcoming projects including Hridayapoorvam directed by Sandeep Balakrishnan, Vrushabha by Nanda Kishore, and Drishyam 3 with Jeetu Joseph. He will also be part of Patriot, a major production by Mahesh Narayanan, co-starring Mammootty and Fahadh Faasil.
