Gaurav Khanna's Bigg Boss 19 victory has left him feeling surreal. The 43-year-old actor, known for his roles in Anupamaa and MasterChef India, says he aimed to win the reality show by being true to himself and not compromising his values. Khanna was accused of wearing a façade in the house, but he claims to have played the game fairly and cleanly, without resorting to abusive language or crossing any lines. When asked about his strategy, Khanna revealed that he didn't want to be questioned or cornered later about his actions in the house. He wanted to come out with his head held high, which ultimately worked in his favour. The winning moment was emotional for Khanna, who broke down in tears when Salman Khan announced his name as the winner. He was also thrilled to hear that Khan wants to work with him in the future. Khanna believes that this win is a second innings in his career, which was revived by his role as Anuj Kapadia in Anupamaa. However, Khanna also faced criticism from former contestant Farrhana Bhatt, who made a remark about the show's platform. Khanna took offense not because the remark was directed at him, but because it targeted the industry that has shaped his career. He believes that the comment was unfair to the platform that has given him opportunities. In a heartwarming moment, Khanna spoke about his wife Akanksha Chamola and their personal life. He revealed that sharing their experiences was a personal choice, not a strategy to gain sympathy from the audience. Khanna emphasized the importance of respecting one's partner's wishes and feelings. With this win, Khanna has proven that he can succeed in the competitive world of reality TV by staying true to himself and his values.
