Kamal Haasan, who hosted the first seven seasons of Bigg Boss Tamil, has announced he will not be hosting Season 8. The search for his replacement has sparked much speculation, with names like Shimbu and Nayanthara circulating, but these were not confirmed.

Recent reports suggest that Vijay Sethupathi is set to host Bigg Boss Tamil Season 8. With his recent success in the film Maharaja, he has become a favored choice. Although there were rumors that Kamal Haasan recommended Shimbu as a potential host, Shimbu’s busy film schedule made this impractical. Consequently, Vijay Sethupathi appears to be the preferred choice for the role. Official confirmation is expected soon.
