Bigg Boss 19: From making shocking revelations about a luxurious lifestyle to Ekta Kapoor offering her a project; finalist Tanya Mittal’s journey

Bigg Boss 19 finalist Tanya Mittal has emerged as one of the most talked-about personalities of the season. From jaw-dropping claims about her extravagant lifestyle to emotional fallouts, controversial remarks, and a dream career offer from Ekta Kapoor, Tanya’s journey has been full of highs, lows, and headline-making moments. Every week, she grabbed attention, sometimes for her confidence and sometimes for her confrontation. With Bigg Boss 19 finale a day away; here’s a look at the defining moments that shaped her unforgettable Bigg Boss 19 run.

Tanya stunned everyone inside the house by openly discussing her lavish way of living. From flying to Dubai just to enjoy baklava to claiming she moves around with 150 bodyguards, her statements left contestants wide-eyed. She also revealed, “I own a Cartier gift card worth Rs 5 lakh, along with cards from 30–40 luxury brands.” Adding to the shock, she spoke about her music academy and claimed her musical instruments alone are worth Rs 30–40 lakh, reinforcing her image of high-end opulence.

One of the biggest highs of Tanya’s journey came when Ekta Kapoor made a shocking announcement on stage. With Salman Khan beside her, Ekta said, “Sir ke show mein, ek offer karna mera ek riwaz raha hai… the one who shook the world, Tanya Mittal, I would love to cast you.” She even linked the offer to Tanya’s strong astrological placement, adding mysticism to the moment. Overwhelmed, Tanya called it a “dream project” and expressed heartfelt gratitude.

What started as a strong friendship between Tanya and Neelam Giri quickly spiraled into one of the most emotional breakups of the season. Neelam accused Tanya of being “two-faced” for bonding with former rival Farhana Bhatt. In a tense confrontation, Tanya declared, “Our bond is over. I won’t even eat with you now.” Tears, shouting matches, and broken trust marked the end of their once-close relationship, sending shockwaves through the house dynamic.

One of the most controversial moments occurred when Tanya, along with others, made body-shaming remarks about Ashnoor Kaur. Salman Khan confronted her on national television, repeating the words used: “Haathi jaisi, moti, dinosaur.” He firmly asked, “Who gave you the right to comment on someone’s body?” When Ashnoor finally heard about the comments, she reacted strongly, saying, “Shame on you, Tanya,” sending a powerful message about body positivity.

Salman Khan gave Tanya a brutal reality check, exposing what he called her “calculated strategy.” He told her, “Your one eye is always on the lens.” He accused her of crossing limits, gossiping, and then hiding behind jokes. Summing up her gameplay, he said, “Jaise karni, waisi bharni — that suits you well.” The confrontation was intense, stripping away her confident facade and forcing her to reflect on her actions and behaviour inside the house.

Tanya’s grand entrance itself set her apart. She walked into the house with over 500 customised sarees, nearly 50 kilos of jewellery, and even her own silver utensils — a privilege no one else received. Salman Khan jokingly teased her about her “VIP Instagram lifestyle” and warned, “Yahan Bigg Boss ka ghar hai, luxury ka nahi.” From day one, Tanya made it clear that her journey was going to be anything but ordinary.
