House theme
The season 5 Bigg Boss house was set up in Mumbai Film City. The BB house was designed and conceptualized by the film director Omung Kumar.[8] The Bigg Boss mansion draws inspiration from Kerala's tharavadu architecture, featuring pillars, mural art, and a front elevation reminiscent of traditional houses. The main door resembles an old warship, adorned with 3D cannon projections. Throughout the house includes artwork, such as the Ardhanari design, 3D bulls, and war elephants. It also includes a chit-chat corners, a garden area with a pool and gym, and a jail with nearby seating. The living area's lotus-patterned flooring, animal-themed paintings, and separate wooden seats replace the traditional long couch. The dining area has a 16-seater table, animal skin-designed cushion covers, and a fish-shaped chandelier. The kitchen showcases a traditional touch with hanging chapati and artworks. The bedroom's walls feature Kathakali face drawings and eerie 3D designs. This season, there are no separate rooms for men and women. The confession room features war-themed decor, while the washroom area embraces a greenhouse theme with bamboo and plant designs. The seating arrangement exhibits an eye design reminiscent of the Bigg Boss eye surrounded by straws, akin to a traditional temple procession's alavattam.[9]
