Farah Khan, Kunickaa Laud Tanya’s BB19 Journey

In Farah Khan’s latest vlog, the filmmaker visited Kunickaa Sadanand’s home for a candid chat and fun cooking session. During the conversation, the duo spoke about Tanya Mittal’s unconventional gameplay and her ability to keep audiences engaged. Farah quipped about Tanya’s quirky banter with trees and animal-shaped showpieces inside the Bigg Boss house, calling it a standout trait. Kunickaa agreed, adding that while some found it amusing, Tanya undoubtedly became the centre of attention.

Farah summed it up by saying, “She’s a standout. She’s a national trend! Whether she wins or not, she will be remembered.” Kunickaa echoed the sentiment, noting that Tanya is impossible to ignore, whether loved or criticised.

Criticism, Popularity and Career Opportunities

Inside the Bigg Boss 19 house, Tanya often faced criticism and bullying, particularly for openly discussing her wealth. However, her imaginative storytelling sessions and playful interactions with non-living objects won her a strong fan following. While some viewers called it a gimmick, others celebrated her originality. During her stint on the show, Tanya was also offered a project by television producer Ekta Kapoor.

Emotional Homecoming After the Show

After the show ended last week, Tanya returned to her hometown, Gwalior, where she was seen breaking down emotionally while reuniting with her family. In a video shared on social media, she hugged a man believed to be her father and captioned the moment, “I am home.” Tanya revealed she deliberately avoided using her father’s name on the show to prevent further targeting by fellow contestants.

Following temple visits, interviews and professional commitments in Mumbai, Tanya has now returned to Gwalior to spend time with her parents and extended family.
