The 11th season of 'Bigg Boss' is all about loving thy neighbour!

Incorporating a never-seen-before twist this season, 'Bigg Boss' is set for another extraordinary run. The Padosis are all set to take over television screens as '18 contestants', 'some celebrity and some commoners', enter their new home for the next few weeks.

The opulent property covering 19400 sq. ft. set in Lonavala includes some elements that highlight the fun that's in store for the contestants during their action-packed journey. Designed by aesthetic genius Omung Kumar, the house is filled with larger-than-life elements, 90 cameras and hidden nuances that will keep the contestants engaged till their last day.
Welcome to the world of Pop-Art!
With the first look of the house, one breathes in vibrant and bright colors, offset to contrasting monotones. Bringing alive the theme of pop-art, various elements in the house are designed with the vintag comic-themed images.
The interiors of the 'Bigg Boss 11' house
Topsy-turvy!
Things aren't always pretty the right side up and the 'Bigg Boss' House is a true testament of that fact. Going against the rules of Vaastu, elements are placed in a manner that defy and oppose the very core of that ideology. Couches are specially designed to look as though stuck in imbalance, and a telephone booth has been turned on its side adding another sofa to the expansive space.
It's Abstract!
Buttons are normally sown onto clothes, pencils used to write and number plates put on cars - But not in the Bigg Boss House, where walls are covered in large colorful buttons; pencils forms a photo-frame and number plates make for a table top.
Round-table conference
For 10 seasons, contestants had to communicate, rather awkwardly, while seated on a rectangle dinner table. But this year, contestants can have their own round table conferences as an angels floats above them, watching their every move.
The 'Bigg Boss 11' confession room
Fight-Fight-Fight!
What better place to show your physical strength than an actual 'akhaada' built right in the middle of the living space! Whatever be the reason for this, the akhaada is bound to see serious fights never witnessed before in history on 'Bigg Boss'.
Ecofriendly Bathrooms
While numerous friendships make or even break in the bathrooms of 'Bigg Boss', this year will be all about âJungle Me Mangal' as every corner is covered in green! Yes, with grass on the walls and the doors, one gets a feeling of relieving themselves in the palms of Mother-Nature.
The world is watching!
Taking the logo of Bigg Boss to a new realm, the confession room is designed in a manner that brings alive the true sense of the show. Covered in pop-art themed eyes, the room signifies that while Bigg Boss himself has his eyes on you, so does the world!
The Kalkothari in the 'Bigg Boss 11' house
Fear the Kalkothari
The most interested elements this year though, would be a newer version of the much feared âjail.' This season the contestants are going to think âgyara' times before breaking any rule because there is an underground prison built on one side of the lawn area; with no fans and an accompanying Indian-loo!
The Padosi house
Bringing alive the essence of the theme âpadosi', there is a separate house built in which our contestants will be staying as neighbors You may have wondered how the theme âneighborhood' has been incorporated in the house. Well, the theme has been represented not just an element, but whole new structure.
A separate structure, the âpadosi house', is certain to bring in a lot twist and turns in this Bigg Boss season 11 journey. The house is a comfy space decorated in pastel shades to create a cosy space. Despite the subtle, subdued hues the padosi house has the same pop and awe of the Bigg Boss house with quirky pieces of art.
