Vijay Sethupathi to return as host for season nine 

Before the winner was announced, Vijay TV channel head Bala arrived on the stage and shared his thoughts. "Fantastic set of contestants. Everyone was unpredictable, and it was a fantastic gameplay. I felt none of you should be evicted. But hats off guys! It is not easy to face the judgment of crores of people. When we approached him for Bigg Boss, the first thing he said was, 'I don't like Bigg Boss.' By week 4, and week 12, he started saying how we must interview contestants."

Sethupathi said, "Many label the contestant's journey as too easy. So, I wanted to shake up the process, and prove to the world that none of them were there without talent."

Bala further said, "400-odd people work on this show. We had a lot of fun while doing Bigg Boss, because he maintained that fun quotient. He had an immense understanding of the audience, and we understood the importance of learning curve."

Bala also announced that Vijay Sethupathi will return for the ninth season of Bigg Boss Tamil as host. Reacting to it, the actor said, "Great great Kamal sir... I am walking in his path... I must thank him for the path he has created." The show was earlier hosted by Kamal Haasan who later decided to walk out of the show.
