Kunickaa
Sadanand and Tanya Mittal shared a bittersweet relationship in the Bigg Boss 19 house. After exiting the house, they reunited at parties and celebrations. However, their relationship never mended. Even in interviews, Kunickaa favoured Farrhana Bhatt over Tanya, calling the latter a ‘spoilt child’. Now, the veteran actress slammed the spiritual influencer’s fans for trolling on X (formerly Twitter). The original tweet was deleted after Kunickaa’s reaction. The actress did not hold herself back while calling out trolls, who happen to be fans of Tanya. She received support from the Bigg Boss 19 rebel group fans on X. Kunickaa and Tanya had major fights on the show.

Reacting to being trolled by Tanya’s fans,
Kunickaa requested her admirers not to stoop low to criticise another person. Appealing not to ‘downgrade’ themselves, she questioned the upbringing of those who trolled her on social media. When Mittal’s fan accused her of retweeting ‘Anti-Tanya tweets’ and playing the ‘victim card’, Kunickaa warned the fan not to provoke her. She clarified that she never spoke against Tanya in interviews, whereas she has been projecting her in a bad light post-exiting
Bigg Boss 19. Questioning her existence and popularity before the show, Kunickaa claimed Tanya played mind games and backstabbed her, Farrhana, Amaal Mallik, Neelam Giri and Zeeshan Quadri.

Kunickaa Sadanand on her sanskari comment
In a previous interview with
Zoom, Kunickaa spoke about Tanya’s ‘sanskaar’ and stood by her comment on her upbringing. Calling her dramatic, the veteran actress said she made a scene of that closed chapter outside the house. Kunickaa and Tanya shared a strong bond on
Bigg Boss 19 until the episode aired on September 9, 2025.
What created rift between Kunickaa Sadanand and Tanya Mittal?
During the nominations task that week, Kunickaa told Tanya, “Khaana banana nahi aata toh tumhari mummy ne
sanskaar nahi diye?” The housemates stood by Tanya after the statement. Mittal questioned her and said whatever she said about her mother was wrong. Denying competition with her, Tanya expressed her love for Kunickaa. Tanya also clarified that she never said Kunickaa became the captain because of her. She questioned her for celebrating the win even when she wasn’t happy about getting the privilege. Tanya reacted to Kunickaa raising doubts about her struggles and being disrespectful towards her. Following the incident, they grew apart and never shared the close bond they once had. Tanya, Kunickaa and Neelam Giri were a strong trio in the initial weeks of
Bigg Boss 19. Despite Tanya and Kunickaa’s differences, Neelam remained close to both. Towards the end of her journey, Neelam’s relationship with Tanya turned sour because of the former’s friendship with other contestants that the latter disapproved of.
