Bigg Boss 19 Winner Gaurav Khanna: Is GK A Deserving Winner Of BB19? Here's What Netizens Are Saying

Since day one, Gaurav Khanna has often been called out for not showing his real personality. Even host Salman Khan had once schooled him during an early Weekend Ka Vaar episode, pointing out that he wasn't contributing enough to the show.

During the media round ahead of the finale, the actor faced fiery questions from reporters about his overall contribution to the show. Tanya Mittal and Farrhana Bhatt - along with several other contestants - also challenged him on his passive participation, his tendency to avoid taking sides during fights, and for allegedly "faking" the gentleman persona on the show.

Now, Gaurav Khanna's Bigg Boss 19 victory seems to have sparked an online debate, garnering mixed reactions from the netizens. Reacting to social media posts, some of the fans are calling him "undeserving", stating that Farrhana was more deserving than him.

Taking to the comment section of paparazzo Viral Bhayani's Instagram post on whether Gaurav deserved to win BB19, one of the fans wrote, "Farhana was more deserving then gk🙂🤡❤️‍🩹", while another user commented, "Undeserving winner". A third user wrote, "Unfairrrrr!!! GK kya karega? Fixed winner banegaaa!!?". Meanwhile, one of the fans even called the show "scripted" and commented, "Reality show ❎ Scripted show ✅". "Maine to pahle hi kaha tha Bigg Boss Scripted hai 😢", "Farhana winner thi Real Gaurav ne pure show m kuch nhi kiya Real winner Farhana 🔥", "How he can win 😮there was no contribution of gk...... farahna was 🔥🔥🔥and so tanya too🔥🔥🔥", some of the comments read.

Even on Reddit, fans are expressing their thoughts.

Reacting to the Reddit thread, one of the fans wrote, "That guy has crazy luck", while another person commented, "Kuch nahi kiya yrr isne pura season😭😭

I know Farrhana is Gutter mouth ...but she accepts herself as Villain...so villain ko hi jeeta dete".

Meanwhile, some of the fans have come out in support of Gaurav and called him a deserving winner. "He deserved in front of Farhana. Sirf chillane se hi winner nahi bante. I am happy with Gaurav as a winner.🙌" One of the fans clarified that he'd won purely on the voting basis, clarifying that the voting result was not rigged. The user replied, "Guysss GK has won Bigboss 19 basis pure votes. The votes were way too higher for him as compared to Farhana. Also in live voting 80% of votes were for GK. My brother is in Endemol operations team and gave all this info! Mridul, Ashnoor & Abhishek fans and obviously GK fans have all voted for him! The votes were crazy high for GK!"
