Ever since his big win on Bigg Boss 19, the show’s newest victor, Gaurav Khanna, has taken time for himself to think over his journey and fellow contestants he had to compete with. Amongst many colorful characters that made this season memorable, the game of Tanya Mittal stood out, though not always in the best light, according to Gaurav.

In an interview with reporters after his win, Gaurav didn’t pull any punches as he labeled Tanya, a “flipper”-a term widely used in reality TV circles for contestants who change allegiances at frequent intervals to suit their personal interests. He said, “she played well,” which acknowledged the fact that Tanya had definitely played the game strategically, yet sounded end

Gaurav’s words echo a frank assessment of Tanya inside the Bigg Boss house. Although her competitive spirit and humor fascinated several viewers, her switching sides occasionally grated on some viewers’ nerves-the strategic change in alliances after personal gains, for instance. As Gaurav mentioned, while she played well within her tactics, her methods were sometimes seen as opportunistic, which led to mixed reactions from both the housemates and the audience.

This comment from Gaurav has incited some arguments among the show’s fans. While some share Gaurav’s view, citing that Tanya’s strategy was an intelligent move considering the game dynamics were changing every moment, on the other hand, some fans of Tanya’s game believe she had only been playing the game the way it needed to be played, adapting to the challenges as they came.

As for Gaurav, his candidness regarding his fellow contestant’s approach to the game only adds to his image as someone who doesn’t shy away from calling things as he sees them. His victory in the Bigg Boss 19 house wasn’t just because of his game but also because he could read people and adjust yet stay balanced in all the madness. Now that the season is over, fans are eager to see how Gaurav’s career will unfold, and many await his next big project within the entertainment sphere. As he ventures into new opportunities, though, it’s crystal clear that his time in the Bigg Boss house and his blunt views of his co-contestants aren’t going away anytime soon.
