First Look of BIGG BOSS 17 House; Salman Khan's show to have Therapy, Archive room and three bedrooms

After months of anticipation, the curtains finally lifted on India's favourite reality show 'Bigg Boss' 17. This year viewers will be treated to a lavish Bigg Boss house, designed as a majestical world inspired by the architectural charm of Europe. Continuing the course of dazzling the contestants and the audience, creative masterminds Omung Kumar and Vanita Garud have brought the aesthetics of a fantasyland to life for the newest edition of the show. The duo has immersed the mantras of Dil, Dimaag aur Dum into the décor and ambience of the house. Let's take a tour of this majestic mansion!

The main gate of the house opens to a garden area that has been transformed into an enchanted backyard with an embellished tree overlooking a cozy seating area. A huge eye, fashioned as a gyroscope that represents the universe and legacy of the show is suspended above the pool. The doorway from the garden area to the living room is adorned with a spectacular winged horse sculpture and a coral reef-like archway.

The main entrance through which the contestants will step into the house is inlaid with mirrors; it opens into the living room and sets a majestic tone. For the first time, the floor of the living area is suggestive of a scenic European street and the architecture has hints of different cultures across the continent. Ornamented with elaborate stone carvings, stairways, alcoves, and balconies, the living room has a sense of mystery and the flourish of a Victorian castle. The living area expands into three different sections with individual dining areas.

The exquisite medieval country kitchen will capture food-related discussions among the housemates and satiate the viewers’ appetite for entertainment. Made with rustic materials that are evocative of nature, this bustling area has a large wooden table, bar stools, wooden worktops, intricately designed cabinets, vintage cutlery, décor items and vases of exotic flowers.

Painted in pastels - pink, lilac and white, the first section of the house has an elegant facade made of stone and balconies inspired by Romeo and Juliet. Furnished with a luxurious bathroom, meditation zone, therapy room, plush sofas, and lavish headrests, this zone has recreated the aura of a Parisian suite. With the play of light and shiny accessories, this area is decked with lamps, candlesticks, handles, frames, mirrors, carvings, frames, and a trellis of roses.

The star attraction of this section is a therapy room that has walls covered with Egyptian hieroglyphs. Keeping in mind the tension and the drama that the contestants go through during their stay in the Bigg Boss house, the makers have added a therapy room especially for them to calm them down. This is for the first time in the history of Bigg Boss that the contestants will have a therapy room.

The second section is designed mostly in wood and appears to be a chamber for thinkers. With a giant wooden hand and chess pieces fixed on the wall, this realm has a wisdom tree, a secret library, and many cabinets. Its walls are panelled with cyborgs and mystical creatures that echo the spirit of an ancient and modern world in equal measure.

Glowing in an eerie red light, the third section of the room has macabre furniture and decor. Everything from its floor to its ceiling is in shades of red and black. One of the bedposts in this territory features a statue of a black angel surrounded by black roses. The landmark element of this space is a vintage telephone placed amid multiple castles.

Resembling a realm of magic, the confession room is mysterious and dimly lit. Designed in a black and golden palette, this renowned room will witness the contestants in their vulnerable element. At its centre, the room features an upholstered throne crested with a winged lion. For the first time, this feared room has a balcony and a staircase.
