Famous for his role in Anupama, Gaurav entered the Bigg Boss house with high expectations, and many fans believed the winner was already decided the moment he walked in. However, things have taken a surprising turn.
Early in the season, Gaurav made headlines when he refused to do kitchen duty, claiming he couldn’t cook Indian food a statement that went viral given his victory on Celebrity Masterchef. This sparked a heated debate in the house, with other contestants challenging his claim. Despite the backlash, Gaurav defended himself calmly. Since then, his approach has been more passive, as he steers clear of confrontations, contributes minimally to tasks, and rarely takes charge in discussions about captaincy. Fans who had expected a strong, strategic player are beginning to express disappointment on social media.
Tonight’s episode might bring a turning point, as Gaurav is set to have a heated exchange with fellow contestant Baseer. Baseer is reportedly questioning Gaurav’s lack of involvement, asking why he’s in the house if he’s not contributing. Gaurav responds by saying he’s “waiting for the right time” to make his move, to which Baseer challenges him to start playing the game, stating that viewers are eager to see his real side. This raises a key question: Is Gaurav overly confident in his victory, or is he truly uninterested in the competition? Only Gaurav can provide the answer.
On a positive note, Gaurav recently won the Style and Fashion Task, impressing everyone with his understated yet classy wardrobe choices. But in a show like Bigg Boss, style alone won’t be enough.
As the pressure builds, if Gaurav doesn’t step up and engage more actively in the game, his fans might begin to shift their allegiance to other contestants. The next few weeks will determine if Gaurav is playing a long game, or if this season could slip through his fingers.
