Bigg Boss 19 wrapped up with television actor Gaurav Khanna lifting the trophy, while Farrhana Bhatt finished as the first runner-up and Pranit More as the second runner-up. It was the kind of finale where social media timelines split in half – one side spamming “Congratulations GK”, the other side typing “undeserving winner” in all caps at 2 am.
Bigg Boss 19 Winner And Runner Up List
The official Bigg Boss 19 winner and runner-up list is simple: Gaurav Khanna is the winner, Farrhana Bhatt is the first runner-up, and Pranit More is the second runner-up.
BBTak, posting on X under the handle @BiggBoss_Tak, shared a celebratory moment featuring Bigg Boss 19 winner Gaurav Khanna, who posed proudly with his trophy for the media. He added a confident message: “Who was asking what GK will do? GK will do this!” He backed it up with his victory and style.
The season started on August 24 with 18 contestants, and after months of alliances, screaming matches, teary confessions, and at least one major controversy involving a wooden plank and the no‑violence rule, it all boiled down to these final three.
Here’s a quick, slightly informal snapshot of the top finishers:
| Position | Contestant | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Winner | Gaurav Khanna | Won a trophy, ₹50 lakh cash prize, and a car. |
| First Runner Up | Farrhana Bhatt | Huge fanbase, loud game, very vocal post-finale. |
| Second Runner Up | Pranit More | Known for the “sort it out, don’t bottle it up” attitude. |
What kept this season interesting was how different their journeys felt. Farrhana thrived on chaos, Gaurav stayed mostly calm and low‑key, and Pranit almost turned into that one friend constantly preaching,
“If you’ve got a problem, just confront and clear it.” Add in the sudden expulsion of Ashnoor Kaur for hitting Tanya Mittal with a plank during a Ticket to Finale task, and the finale lineup felt like the end of a very messy, very addictive group project.
Who Is The Winner Of Bigg Boss Season 19
The winner of Bigg Boss Season 19 is actor Gaurav Khanna, who lifted the trophy and took home a cash prize of ₹50 lakh (plus a car) in the grand finale hosted by Salman Khan. He beat Farrhana Bhatt in the final face‑off, with confetti flying, Salman raising his hand, and social media instantly exploding with “Congratulations GK” trends.

Gaurav’s journey wasn’t the usual “shout the loudest, fight the most, stay in the frame” Bigg Boss template. For most of the season, he stayed measured, avoided unnecessary fights, and often chose silence over drama, which made some viewers underestimate him early on.
Only in the last phase did he start asserting himself more in tasks and discussions, which slowly turned that “boring but decent” tag into “calm but impactful.”
He also had some strong narrative moments:
- Salman Khan publicly praised him as a dignified, consistent TV performer and even hinted at working with him soon, which instantly boosted his “respect” factor among neutral viewers.
- His performance in tough tasks, like the Ticket to Finale challenge, where hanging in with composure turned him from a background player into a serious finalist.
What fans loved was that he walked in as a familiar TV face but played the game more like an office‑going “normal person” – patient, slightly reserved, occasionally hurt, but not constantly performing for the camera. For supporters, his win feels like a small victory for quieter personalities in a format that usually rewards high volume.
Bigg Boss 19 Runner Up
The Bigg Boss 19 runner-up is Farrhana Bhatt, who finished second, with Pranit More ending as the second runner-up behind her. If Gaurav’s arc was about quiet dignity, Farrhana’s was about taking up space, sometimes loved for it, sometimes dragged for it, but rarely ignored.

Farrhana herself has made it very clear that she doesn’t believe Gaurav deserved the title, saying in interviews that he “never did anything” that made him look like a winner and that his TV popularity and existing audience probably tilted the votes in his favour.
She, on the other hand, looks at the season as “Farrhana’s season,” arguing that while she didn’t get the trophy, she won hearts and attention, which, in fairness, matches the way the online chatter still revolves around her even after the finale.
Among fans, reactions have stayed sharply split:
- One section calls Gaurav an “undeserving winner” and insists Farrhana was the real choice, comparing his win to earlier controversial winners like MC Stan.
- Another group celebrates him as the “gentleman who left as a champion,” praising the idea that someone can win Bigg Boss without constant screaming or gimmicks.
Pranit’s third‑place finish adds a calmer note to the runner-up list. In his post‑show comments, he talked more about what he learned – like confronting issues instead of letting grudges simmer – than about losing, which fits his “process over trophy” vibe.
Put together, the Bigg Boss 19 winner and runner up list tells a neat story about this season: drama may drive the episodes, but in the end, the trophy went to a quieter contestant, while the loudest, most polarising presence walked out without the title yet with a fanbase that will probably keep her trending long after the confetti has been swept off the stage.
