YouTuber Purav Jha was recently in Amazon Prime Video's reality show The Traitors. He was one of the traitors in the show, but he didn't win. Now, according to a social media account, Bigg Boss Tak, Purav has been confirmed to be a part of Bigg Boss 19. The Salman Khan-hosted show is all set to premiere on August 24, 2025.
A few weeks ago, there were reports that this season will have only TV and Bollywood celebrities, and YouTubers and social media influencers won't be a part of it. However, it looks like the reports were false as the makers of Bigg Boss 19 have roped in Purav.
In The Traitors, Purav played the game very well. So, it will surely be interesting to see him in Bigg Boss 19. Meanwhile, reportedly, even Apoorva Mukhija, who was a part of The Traitors, has been approached for Bigg Boss 19, but there's no confirmation on it.

A netizen tweeted, "And it starts, the filling of kachra influencers to once a good show that it was (sic)." Another X user wrote, "And good news is Apoorva is also coming. TRP is going to blast (sic)."
One more netizen tweeted, "Poorav is going to be the finalist 100%. Phir L lagengey TV industry walo ke (sic)." Check out the tweets below...
