Biyon Kattilathu's career is varied; the mental coach has tried everything.
Before taking part in “Let’s Dance”, he tried dozens of times to get on TV.
As a replacement, Biyon Kattilathu made it to “Let's Dance” and can show what he can do live on RTL.
But it is far from his first experience on television; the 39-year-old has already appeared as a guest on various programs - or at least tried to.
So far, however, he has only been able to establish himself as a mental coach on social media; despite his best efforts, he was denied a major TV career.

Before “Let’s Dance” 2024 – Biyon Kattilathu on “DSDS”, “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” and Co.
However, Kattilathu is not very popular with viewers on the popular RTL dance format - even though he is so positive and happy!
By taking part in “Let's Dance” 2024, “a dream became reality” for Biyon, as he himself told RTL.
No wonder, after all, he made every effort to get on television.
In 2007 he even tried to convince Dieter Bohlen on “Deutschland sucht den Superstar”.
But this didn't stop his efforts to get onto German television screens.
He obviously really wanted to be in an RTL format and tried tirelessly to achieve that.
As he revealed in the BILD interview, he applied 15 times until he finally made it to the chair opposite Günther Jauch.
He also won big at “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”: He won 32,000 euros at the time.
“Let's Dance” candidate change ensures Biyon's big TV appearance on RTL
Biyon also revealed to Bild that his last – and successful – application attempt was a declaration of war: “Dear Günther Jauch team, you can reject me as many times as you want.
I will keep applying to you until you invite me.” The happiness guru really wants to be on TV.
Accordingly, Simon Brunner's failure from "Let's Dance" was a stroke of luck for Biyon Kattilathu, as he can finally radiate his positive energy on the dance floor.
He worked towards this for a long time and worked his way through many shows, including trying his luck on “Schlag den Raab” and the ARD quiz show “Zero Wins”.
Although it hasn't been enough for a major TV career so far, Biyon has at least been able to build up a reach on social media - he now has 824,000 followers on Instagram (as of March 5, 2024).

Biyon Kattilathu “a chatterbox”?
“Let's Dance” viewers annoyed by happiness guru
Biyon started various “lucky campaigns” with which he tried to break records - the media attention was certainly just a side effect.
Among other things, he shared online how he kissed 129 people on the cheek in one minute.
Despite his many good deeds, the 39-year-old is not popular with “Let's Dance” viewers.
“Biyon is a chatterbox who tries to be likeable,” is the harsh verdict.
In addition, the happiness coach and author of complex works such as “Because I’m worth it!”
101 heartfelt thoughts for her” make serious accusations: “Biyon is a guy who takes the last cent out of the pockets of those who have nothing,” writes an X-user (formerly Twitter).
Since the audience also has a say, Biyon Kattilathu's chances of winning “Let's Dance” 2024 are not very good.
