Television actor Gaurav Khanna, who clinched the Bigg Boss 19 trophy during the grand finale last night, has now taken to Instagram to share his first moments of celebration. The joy and disbelief on his face captured in the photos reflect the culmination of an emotional and hard-fought journey. Host Salman Khan announced Gaurav as the winner of the season, with Farrhana Bhatt securing the first runner-up position. Just hours after the victory, Gaurav expressed heartfelt gratitude toward his fans, supporters, and well-wishers who stood by him throughout the competition.
Gaurav’s first celebratory post features him posing proudly with his wife, Akanksha Chamola, and close friend Mridul Tiwari, all smiles as he holds the gleaming Bigg Boss trophy. He captioned the post, “Winnnnnerrrr is Hereeeeeeeeeee Grateful for your immense support #KhannaKaKhaandaan THE TROPHYYY IS HOME.” Another post shows Gaurav and Akanksha together, holding the trophy as they share a lighthearted and emotional moment.
His team also shared a touching note looking back on his journey. They wrote that the intense three-month stint inside the Bigg Boss house had finally reached its finish line, and the victory felt like a deeply personal achievement. “They kept asking, ‘What will GK do?’ And like we always said—GK will bring the trophy home. He did,” the statement read. The team spoke about living through every high, setback, and moment of strength with Gaurav, celebrating not only his win but also the collective support behind him.
“This victory belongs to everyone who believed, voted, and made his dream their own,” the note continued. “Today, we aren’t just celebrating a trophy—we’re celebrating faith, love, and unity. We are winning together. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. —Team Gaurav Khanna.”
The season concluded with Farrhana Bhatt as the first runner-up, followed by comedian Pranit More in third place, Tanya Mittal in fourth, and Amaal Mallik in fifth.
Gaurav’s 105-day journey was filled with emotional highs, intense confrontations, and moments of sincerity. While he was admired for his honesty and consistent strategy, he also faced heated clashes with contestants like Tanya Mittal and Farrhana Bhatt. At the same time, his strong friendships with Pranit More, Ashnoor Kaur, Mridul Tiwari, and Abhishek Bajaj became heartwarming highlights that endeared him to audiences across the season.
