The curtain has closed on Bigg Boss 19 (BB19), with actor Gaurav Khanna lifting the coveted trophy and the INR 50 lakh prize. Yet what should be a moment of pure celebration has been clouded by a predictable but intense “fixed winner” controversy, fuelled by a noticeable section of the show’s massive fanbase.
Even before the start of the season, many believed Khanna would emerge victorious, and that is exactly what happened. Fans of the more prominent finalists, Farrhana Bhatt and Amaal Mallik, strongly believe that Khanna is one of the most undeserving winners in the history of Bigg Boss.
Instead of being more active like other contestants, Khanna showcased passive gameplay, avoided major confrontations, and spent long stretches in the house without creating significant, memorable “content” or “drama”.
For a reality show notorious for its high-voltage clashes and over-the-top theatrics, the actor’s restrained approach throughout the season is what has actually fuelled this controversy.
Khanna’s dedicated fans and supporters fiercely defend his victory, arguing that his game was one of dignity, maturity, and emotional intelligence, proving that Bigg Boss can be won without engaging in abusive language or chaos.
When Khanna secured the Ticket to Finale, becoming the season’s first confirmed finalist, the backlash soared. Social media was flooded with accusations that he was fast-tracked due to his standing as a major television star.
After winning BB19, Gaurav Khanna immediately dismissed these allegations and stated that he did not need to answer them. He also revealed that he preferred to focus on the majority who voted for him, saying he played the game to win the hearts of the vast audience, not a handful of housemates or critics.
Whether driven by genuine public votes or producer preference, the debate guarantees that Khanna’s Bigg Boss win will be remembered not just for the trophy, but for the storm of fixing allegations that accompanied it. Stay tuned for more updates.
Here’s how fans reacted to Gaurav Khanna’s BB19 win!

I know from first day shameful big boss shitty show— Manprit B (@BManpritk) December 8, 2025
Ganda Finale. Gaurav was the winner fixed by BB from day one. And he knew it. That’s why he did not do anything in the show. Even salman knew this. In second last episode he saluted Gaurav for not doing anything. Or putting up an act.
