Bigg Boss season 8, the Salman Khan-hosted reality property on Colors, is set to witness a twist. After 15 weeks of telecast, the producer has decided to toughen the competition.

Bigg Boss will crown its five champions on January 3, following which 'Bigg Boss Halla Bol', the second part of the show will be launched. Set to go on air from January 4, 2015, Bigg Boss Halla Bol will include not only the five champions, but also open its doors to five new challengers - Rahul Mahajan, Sambhavna Seth, Ajaz Khan, Mahek Chahal - and one more from the previous Bigg Boss seasons.

The champions and challengers will engage in battle as they strive to stay inside the Bigg Boss house and move closer to the Grand Finale where a contestant from either party can lay claim to the title of 'Winner of the Show'.

The series will welcome Farah Khan as host. She will be the 'guiding light' for the champions and challengers while questioning their actions and decisions as the show races to the end.

Snapdeal will continue its association with the reality show as the presenting sponsor. Bigg Boss Halla Bol will occupy the same time-slot on Colors - 9 pm.

Raj Nayak, CEO, Colors says, "This New Year we bring Bigg Boss buffs another engrossing series packed with newer twists and interesting characters. This show is our New Year gift to all Bigg Boss fans."

The show, produced by Endemol India, has also seen Amitabh Bachchan, Arshad Warsi, Shilpa Shetty and Sanjay Dutt as hosts of different seasons in past.
