About Gaurav Khanna’s Bigg Boss 19 Win

Gaurav Khanna emerged as the winner of Bigg Boss 19 on Sunday, December 7. Farrhana Bhatt was the first runner-up of the show, followed by Pranit More, Tanya Mittal and Amaal Mallik. Apart from the trophy, Khanna also took home a prize money of Rs 50 lakh.

However, ever since his victory, many have argued that Khanna did not deserve to win Salman Khan’s show. Recently, Farrhana Bhatt also claimed that contestants like Amaal Mallik and Abhishek Bajaj had made a greater contribution to the show than Khanna.

“Others were there too, Amaal, Tanya, Pranit, they contributed to a great extent. More than GK, Kalpu Kaka (the tree Tanya used to talk to) had a contribution. Even in his journey video, more than him, Baseer and Abhishek were visible. Gaurav didn’t even do 20% of what Abhishek did in Bigg Boss 19. So I feel, in terms of contribution, he hasn’t done something wow. But I congratulate him for winning the trophy of Farrhana Bhatt’s season,” she told Filmygyan.
