  "account": "Bigg Boss Tamil Season 10 is gearing up for its grand launch on September 6, with Tamil star Vijay Sethupathi set to host the show for the third consecutive year. The reality television programme, which sees a group of contestants battle it out in a specially built house for over 100 days, promises to be bigger and better than ever before.\n\nAhead of the launch, the host will introduce the contestants during a grand ceremony. Unlike previous seasons, this edition will begin with a pre-show, The Common Man, to select commoners for the main show, inspired by the Telugu version Bigg Boss Agnipariksha.\n\nThe opening ceremony begins at 6 pm on Sunday, and viewers can catch the episode on Jio Hotstar and Star Vijay. Bigg Boss Tamil Season 10 reportedly took 45 days to construct its new house. In the previous season, Divya Ganesan emerged as the grand champion, while R Sabarinathan was named the first runner-up. Divya won a trophy, a cash prize of Rs 50 lakh, and a Maruti Suzuki Victoris.",
