Television actress Shivangi Joshi has denied joining Bigg Boss 20, calling a viral video that claimed to confirm her participation completely fake. The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai star posted on Instagram Stories that the clip circulating on social media falsely suggested her involvement.

"I would like to clarify that I am NOT participating in Bigg Boss 20, and the video is completely fake," she wrote. Her name had been trending on social media after fan posts described her as the first confirmed contestant.
Bigg Boss 20 is scheduled to premiere on September 6 with Salman Khan returning as host. The makers have not yet announced the final contestant lineup. Other names reported to be in advanced talks include Niti Taylor and Anjali Arora.
Reality show disclaimers have become routine even before a season airs. Under standard broadcast contracts, contestants who are in active negotiation often issue such denials to avoid penal clauses or to maintain leverage until signing. Salman Khan-hosted seasons typically draw wide speculation precisely because the makers keep the final list under wraps until the last week. Fans following the 'Bigg Boss 20' announcement calendar should expect the official contestant reveal within days of the September 6 premiere, not before. The network releasing promo material in the final week will be the concrete signal that the lineup is locked.
