Gauahar Khan Applauds Gaurav Khanna’s Integrity in Bigg Boss 19: Calls Him a Potential Winner
Mumbai, October 28, 2025: Bigg Boss 7 winner and celebrated actress Gauahar Khan has praised Bigg Boss 19 contestant Gaurav Khanna for standing firm on fairness and logic during the latest episode of the reality show. Gaurav’s decision to defend fellow contestants Abhishek Bajaj and Ashnoor Kaur amid the nomination debate drew strong reactions in the house — and appreciation outside, especially from Gauahar, who called him one of the most composed and deserving players this season.
Gaurav Khanna’s Bold Stand Sparks Conversations
The latest episode of Bigg Boss 19 witnessed a tense moment when the housemates were asked to decide whether Abhishek Bajaj and Ashnoor Kaur should be nominated for breaking the rule of not wearing their microphones despite repeated warnings. While most contestants were ready to punish them, Gaurav Khanna stood alone in their defense, questioning the selective enforcement of rules inside the house.
His argument struck a chord with both the audience and former contestants like Gauahar Khan, who took to her social media handle to express admiration for his sense of justice.
Gauahar Khan’s Perspective: ‘It Takes Courage to Stand Your Ground’
In her Instagram story, Gauahar Khan wrote, “Did you see Gaurav Khanna last night? I think it takes a lot of courage to stand your ground and make a decision that’s fair not just for yourself but for everyone. Logically, he had a very good point; everyone in the Bigg Boss house breaks the rules at some point. So how do you even decide who deserves punishment?”
She added that rule violations like sleeping or reading during restricted hours are often ignored, and that selective nominations make the system appear inconsistent. “Sleeping or reading during restricted hours is also a rule break, yet many housemates do it openly. But no one has been consistently nominated for that,” she explained.
‘Fairness Over Popularity’: Gauahar’s Message to the Audience
Gauahar emphasized that Gaurav’s argument wasn’t about favoritism but about fair play. She noted that the uproar in the house was due to emotional reactions rather than logic. “This time, everyone got worked up because only two people were nominated easily, while the rest weren’t. It’s understandable that no one wants to be nominated, but Gaurav’s point was valid: if only a couple of people face consequences while others go free, it’s not fair.”
Her support highlights how Gaurav’s thought process resonates with those who value rational decision-making in a show often driven by alliances and emotions.
‘A Potential Winner’: Gauahar Lauds Gaurav’s Composure
Gauahar didn’t stop at defending his stance; she also praised his overall gameplay. “Honestly, I see Gaurav Khanna as a potential winner. He has all the qualities of a strong, composed player: no unnecessary fights, no drama, and no fake aggression. He’s calm, logical, and steady. Slowly but surely, he’s proving himself. He’s definitely in my top two,” Gauahar shared.
Her statement has added momentum to a growing wave of social media support for Gaurav. Fans have begun trending hashtags like #GauravKhannaForTheWin and #FairPlayerGaurav, calling him the “most grounded contestant” of the season.
Acknowledging Mridul’s Leadership as Captain
While lauding Gaurav, Gauahar also took a moment to appreciate Mridul, the current house captain, for standing firm on his decision despite possible backlash. “I also have to give credit to Mridul for standing his ground as captain. Logically, he was right too; rules are broken by many people, so it’s unfair to single out just two. However, this decision might backfire during the weekend, as Bigg Boss might accuse them of going against the format. Still, that’s what makes the show interesting; it’s all about personalities and the decisions you make under pressure,” she said.
Her acknowledgment underlines how both Gaurav and Mridul showcased integrity and critical thinking in a moment of collective pressure — qualities that often determine long-term success in the show.
Social Media Applauds Gaurav’s Loyalty and Logic
Viewers across social platforms echoed Gauahar’s sentiments, praising Gaurav for standing by his friends despite the entire house being against him. Comments like “Finally, someone logical in the Bigg Boss house!” and “Gaurav is the only one who understands the game with maturity” flooded X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.
His measured approach, devoid of dramatics, has earned him comparisons to past strategic winners of the show. Some fans even labeled him the “dark horse” of Bigg Boss 19, predicting his steady rise toward the finale.
Abhishek Bajaj and Ashnoor Kaur: The Rule Break Debate
The controversy began when Bigg Boss reprimanded Abhishek and Ashnoor for repeatedly removing their microphones — a rule violation that typically leads to nominations. Instead of directly penalizing them, Bigg Boss left the final call to the housemates, sparking a heated debate.
While most contestants agreed they should face consequences, Gaurav intervened, pointing out that rule-breaking is a collective behavior in the house. His reasoned defense not only softened the mood but also shifted the focus to the larger issue of fairness and consistency in rule enforcement.
A Defining Moment for Gaurav’s Game
For Gaurav Khanna, this incident could mark a turning point in his Bigg Boss 19 journey. His calm composure and logical reasoning have already set him apart from the chaos-driven gameplay of others. As the show progresses, fans and former contestants alike are watching to see if his balanced strategy leads him closer to the finale.
Gaurav Khanna’s stand in Bigg Boss 19 reflects not just his loyalty but also his integrity — traits often overshadowed by theatrics in reality TV. Gauahar Khan’s support reinforces that in a house full of voices, reason still resonates. Whether Gaurav’s quiet strength will carry him to the winner’s trophy remains to be seen, but for now, he has undoubtedly earned respect both inside and outside the Bigg Boss house.
