The Undertaker, who is currently under a Legends Contract with WWE, makes occasional appearances on the company's weekly shows. Alongside his wife, Michelle McCool, he is serving as a coach for WWE LFG season 2. Following the conclusion of this show, the legendary wrestler may travel to India to participate in the Bigg Boss house.
As reported by a local media outlet, The Undertaker is in discussions to join the reality show Bigg Boss, which is set to launch its latest season this weekend, marking its debut on both cable and OTT platforms. While WWE has not officially confirmed this news, insiders from the production team suggest that talks are ongoing.
Expected Guest Appearance in November
If an agreement is finalized, The Undertaker could enter the Bigg Boss house in November for approximately a week. Rather than being a contestant, he is anticipated to make a celebrity guest appearance, providing support to the contestants and potentially enhancing the show's already impressive ratings, as it is touted to be the largest TV show in India.

Bigg Boss is the Indian adaptation of the UK's Big Brother reality series, airing annually in late summer. Salman Khan returns as the host for this season, which is expected to be the longest yet. The Undertaker is not the first WWE star to enter the house; The Great Khali, another Hall of Famer, previously participated and reportedly earned $57,000 per week.
The Undertaker's Popularity in India
The Undertaker enjoys immense popularity in India, appealing to both adult and younger audiences. Notably, his WWE character made an appearance in the Bollywood film Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi in 1996. However, the role was not portrayed by Mark Calaway, the actual wrestler, but by Brian Lee, who played the fake Undertaker in WWF in 1994.
