Bigg Boss 19 winner Gaurav Khanna has been the center of attention ever since he lifted the glittering trophy and secured the grand cash prize. While fans have been celebrating his victory, the actor’s father, Vinod Khanna, has now spoken out about the criticism Gaurav faced inside the house—particularly a remark made by the season’s first runner-up, Farrhana Bhatt.
According to Vinod Khanna, some contestants crossed the line when they questioned his son’s successful career as a renowned television actor. He singled out Farrhana Bhatt, who reportedly called Gaurav a “superstar” in a mocking tone and belittled his work on TV.
“I Might Have Even Slapped Her,” Says Vinod Khanna
Vinod Khanna expressed how deeply the comment had affected him as a father.
He explained that Gaurav’s anger was clearly visible at that moment—his “throat veins were popping,” a sign of how hurt he was by the remark.
Vinod added sternly,
“If I had been there, I don’t know what I would have done. I might have even slapped Farhana.”
His reaction reflects not just anger but also the protective instinct of a father who has witnessed his son’s hard-earned journey in the entertainment industry.
Proud of Gaurav’s Composure and Strategy
Despite the controversies, Vinod Khanna shared how proud he was of Gaurav’s game. He praised his son for maintaining calmness and using strategic thinking throughout the season.
Initially, Vinod admitted he didn’t understand why Gaurav was getting involved in certain fights. But as the game progressed, he noticed how thoughtfully Gaurav handled conflicts—stepping in with maturity and resolving issues with grace.
This, he said, reaffirmed Gaurav’s strength, character, and ability to remain poised under pressure.
A Well-Deserved Win
With his dignified gameplay, emotional maturity, and strong fan support, Gaurav Khanna’s journey in Bigg Boss 19 has been widely applauded. And now, with his father publicly standing by him, the actor’s victory seems even more meaningful.
As celebrations continue, one thing is clear—Gaurav Khanna has not only won the trophy but also immense respect within and outside the industry.
