The race to the Bigg Boss 19 Grand Finale has found its first guaranteed contender. Television star Gaurav Khanna has reportedly won the crucial ‘Ticket To Finale’ (TTF) task, securing his coveted spot in the season’s final week, which is scheduled for December 7, 2025.
Gaurav Khanna outlasted three other top contenders—Farhana Bhatt, Pranit More, and Ashnoor Kaur—in a gruelling final competition that tested endurance, balance, and mental focus. His victory not only shields him from all upcoming nominations and eliminations but also grants him the privilege of becoming the final Captain of the Bigg Boss 19 house.
The news, widely circulated by reliable insider sources and confirmed by live feeds, has intensified the atmosphere inside the house, setting the stage for an explosive final stretch as the remaining contestants battle for the remaining finale spots.
The ‘Ticket To Finale’ task was designed by Bigg Boss to push the remaining eight contestants to their physical and mental limits. Following preliminary rounds, Gaurav Khanna, Farhana Bhatt, Pranit More, and Ashnoor Kaur emerged as the final four contenders.
The final challenge, set in the garden area, reportedly revolved around maintaining balance while continuously walking. Each contender had to balance two bowls of water on a stick placed on their shoulders, with strict instructions that any spill would lead to immediate elimination. The task was further complicated by the interference and pressure tactics employed by the non-contenders circling the arena.
The elimination rounds saw intense strategic plays:
- Round 1: Farhana Bhatt became the first casualty, eliminated after Malti Chahar successfully caused her red water to spill.
- Round 2: Pranit More exited next, reportedly due to retaliation from the already-eliminated Farhana.
- Round 3 (Final): The final round pitted Gaurav against Ashnoor Kaur. Amidst mounting pressure and distractions—which reportedly included Tanya Mittal triggering Ashnoor’s spill—Gaurav Khanna maintained his composure and balance until the very end, ultimately emerging as the triumphant winner.
His measured, focused gameplay throughout the season culminated in this final display of resilience, making him the season’s first official finalist.
While Gaurav Khanna’s fans are ecstatic over his guaranteed spot in the finale, the announcement has sparked an immediate and intense debate across social media platforms. A significant number of users and viewers are accusing the show’s makers of playing favourites and showing bias towards the popular television actor.
Critics argue that Gaurav Khanna’s contribution to the show’s dramatic quotient has been relatively low, with many commenting on his “zero contribution” to house events. One social media user wrote: “Sahi hai show mein contribution na do…aur Colors face hone k waze se direct ticket to finale b utha lo (Right, don’t contribute much to the show, but get a direct ticket to the finale just because you are a popular face of the Colors channel).”
Despite the backlash, Gaurav’s supporters defend his steady, dignified gameplay, arguing that his victory is a testament to his endurance and focus—qualities often undervalued in the chaos of the Bigg Boss house.
Gaurav Khanna’s win not only secures his place as a finalist but also reportedly grants him the power of being the ‘Last Captain’ of Bigg Boss 19. This dual victory provides him with absolute safety and considerable influence over the house dynamics in the final weeks, a position he has struggled to secure earlier in the season.
With the final showdown scheduled for Sunday, December 7, 2025, the stakes are now higher than ever for the remaining seven contestants—Ashnoor Kaur, Amaal Mallik, Pranit More, Farrhana Bhatt, Tanya Mittal, Malti Chahar, and Shehbaz Badesha. They must now fight for survival without the TTF advantage, competing fiercely for votes and the remaining spots in the Grand Finale lineup.
