Salman Khan’s comments suggest that the season will not only bring new rules but also a new way of playing. He notes that the game evolves each year and that this season’s “Jeevan Daan” is “not as straightforward as it sounds.” The star hints that the full details will unfold once the contestants enter the house, promising a season where playing it safe might not be an option.
Alok Jain, Head of Hindi & English Entertainment Business at JioStar, added that reaching twenty seasons is a milestone for the franchise. He said the network aims to reimagine the format and raise the stakes, offering fresh, unexpected challenges for both contestants and viewers. According to Jain, the new gameplay layers will push participants to adapt, take risks and make choices that could reshape their journey.
While the official cast remains undisclosed, rumours have floated names such as Nia Sharma, Arjun Bijlani, Karan Patel and Jannat Zubair. These speculations add to the buzz as fans anticipate the blend of familiar faces and new strategies that the “Extra Jeevan Daan” twist may bring.
