Farrhana spoke about her journey on Bigg Boss 19 and stated, “I am truly satisfied. Though I don’t have the trophy in my hand, I am the star of this season, which I definitely believe. As people say, this season is Farrhana Bhatt’s season. I can’t believe people have given me so much love. I needed this love more than the trophy.”
Farrhana added when asked if she thinks Gaurav is a deserving winner, “I don’t really think so because he never did anything in Bigg Boss. Not even one thing he has done makes him look like a winner. But since he has been on TV and this reality show airs on TV, he might have his TV audience who voted for him. So, respect to them and their choice.”
Gaurav was largely silent on his journey, but Farrhana Bhatt caused chaos, started fights, and engaged in high drama. While Gaurav only opened up and showed off his true game near the conclusion of the show, Farrhana made sure to capture the attention of every housemate from day one. Salman Khan valued Gaurav's cool-headedness, but Farrhana was regularly criticised for being abusive in the home.
In the end, Gaurav emerged victorious from the reality show, winning ₹50 lakh in prize money and the dazzling Bigg Boss 19 trophy. When he won the show, his friends Ashnoor Kaur, Mridul Tiwari, Pranit More, and Abhishek Bajaj celebrated and hurried to give him a big hug. Even after the ceremony is over, social media is still humming with speculation about the winner.
