Talking about the new season, Kundrra, as per a press note, said, "Returning to MTV after six years feels like a true homecoming and MTV Splitsvilla has always been one of the channel's most iconic shows. I am super excited to host this season alongside Sunny Leone, who knows the game inside out. What excites me most is seeing how contestants navigate this journey of love when money enters the picture and challenges their choices."

"It will also be interesting to watch how our mischief-makers, Nia and Uorfi, stir things up and tempt the contestants at every step. And with the show airing three times a week, there's clearly going to be a lot more drama, fun, and unexpected twists coming your way!" he added.

The show is also set to introduce a new setup where contestants will be divided into Pyaar Villa and Paisa Villa, pushing them to make choices between emotions and rewards. The format will also continue from last season's storyline involving former contestants Digvijay and Kashish.

MTV Splitsvilla X6 will air three days a week, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7 pm on MTV and JioHotstar. (ANI)
