Farrhana Bhatt Reacts: “He Never Did Anything in Bigg Boss”
In an interview following the finale, Farrhana shared her disappointment, stating she was satisfied with her journey despite not winning.
“I am the star of this season… people have given me so much love. I needed this love more than the trophy,” she said.
When asked whether Gaurav deserved the win, she responded bluntly:
“He never did anything in Bigg Boss. Not even one thing makes him look like a winner. Since he has been on TV, he might have his TV audience who voted for him. Respect to them and their choice.”
Unofficial popularity polls also placed Farrhana at the top this season, further fuelling debate among fans.
Gaurav vs Farrhana: Two Contrasting Journeys
The duo’s game styles were starkly different.
Farrhana dominated the house with high drama, heated arguments, and a strong presence from day one. However, she was often criticised for foul language.
Gaurav, on the other hand, maintained a calm and restrained demeanour. He opened up only towards the end, earning praises from host Salman Khan for his composed personality.
Despite contrasting approaches, Gaurav clinched the title, winning ₹50 lakh and the gleaming Bigg Boss 19 trophy, with friends Ashnoor Kaur, Pranit More, Mridul Tiwari, and Abhishek Bajaj celebrating his victory on stage.
