Post–Bigg Boss Rift Comes to the Fore

In a recent interaction, Tanya addressed the misunderstandings that marked her bond with Farhana inside the house. She revealed that Farhana always believed Tanya was being “too clever” and accused her of using the friendship to improve her public image—an allegation Tanya firmly denied.

The perception, Tanya said, deeply hurt her and followed their relationship till the very end of the season.

Calling Farhana a ‘Negative Character’

Speaking candidly to Film Window, Tanya said Farhana never questioned her status but constantly questioned her intentions as a person. According to Tanya, Farhana repeatedly claimed that she befriended her only to “look good” in the game.

Questioning this logic, Tanya stated that associating with negativity would never enhance anyone’s image. She went on to describe Farhana as a negative character and expressed how painful it was to have her personality doubted throughout the show.

Tanya Mittal Responds to Amaal Mallik’s Claims

Apart from her Bigg Boss fallout, Tanya also addressed Amaal Mallik’s recent post on X, where he alleged that she was running a paid PR campaign against him. Denying the claims outright, Tanya said she has never tried to associate herself with Amaal in any way.

I have already apologised personally & on social media for all of it, not just to her but to every other contestant for whatever transpired on the show…

The first tweet by me after getting out of the house was for Tanya, so stop running your mouth and messing with my manager,… https://t.co/dyeU4Heh1i

She questioned why she would need paid PR or indirect methods if she genuinely wanted a connection, adding that she neither contacted nor attempted to meet him.

“I Am Not Even on Twitter”

Tanya further clarified that she is not even active on X (formerly Twitter) and is unaware of the online exchanges involving fans. She said targeting her fans and dragging her name into unnecessary controversies was completely uncalled for.

Concluding her statement, Tanya shared that she has chosen to leave both positive and negative opinions about her as “loose ends,” focusing instead on her own journey beyond the reality show spotlight.
