Mumbai's relentless rain has wreaked havoc on the city, affecting daily life and halting work. The steady downpour has even slowed down the pace of this ever-bustling city. The rain has directly impacted the much-anticipated reality show Bigg Boss 19, putting its filming on hold.

Team Issues Statement

According to news from India Today/AajTak, the Bigg Boss house was set to open for the media today. However, due to heavy rain and flooding in various parts of the city, the Jio Hotstar team canceled the event on Tuesday morning.

The team stated, "Due to the heavy rains and waterlogging in the city, the Bigg Boss House tour and related activities are temporarily halted. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Further updates will be provided based on the rain situation."

Media Personnel Sent Back

Sources say journalists from Delhi were deboarded timely to avoid any travel disruptions. Those who had already reached Mumbai were sent back to prevent them from getting stranded as several flights were delayed or canceled. The team is now working on assigning a new date so that viewers can catch a glimpse of the Bigg Boss house, which consistently excites and intrigues audiences every year.

Filming in Torrential Rain

Apart from the Bigg Boss 19 media event, other shoots in Mumbai have mostly continued unaffected. It is reported that nearly all productions are underway with heightened precautions. Despite waterlogged avenues in Film City, actors and crew members are wading through the water to get to their shoots.

Bigg Boss to Premiere Soon...

Know that Bigg Boss 19 is set to premiere on August 24. This season promises a politically charged atmosphere, with Salman Khan having already introduced himself in this new setup. A glimpse of the new house was to be revealed, but fans will need to wait a bit longer due to the rains.
