Bigg Boss 18 has become a hot topic on social media, with its mix of drama, controversies, and unique twists keeping fans engaged despite lower TRPs. This season has introduced several new concepts, including the “Time God” replacing the traditional captain role and the return of the in-house jail. Among the contestants, Karanveer Mehra has emerged as the most talked-about participant, showcasing resilience amidst mounting challenges.
Karanveer began his journey as one of the strongest contestants, admired for his maturity and level-headedness. Initially, he enjoyed significant support within the house and was considered a favorite. However, the dynamics have drastically shifted in recent weeks. Once his ally, Vivian Dsena has now become one of his staunchest critics, leading to explosive fights that have caught viewers’ attention. Vivian even called Karanveer a “ganda bartan” (dirty utensil), signaling the breakdown of their longstanding friendship.
Karanveer’s opposition doesn’t end there. Avinash Mishra and his group, who were consistently against Karanveer, have now been joined by contestants like Rajat Dalal and Digvijay. Even his allies, Shilpa Shirodkar and Chum Darang, have started to distance themselves. In a recent promo, the housemates accused Karanveer of forming “fake relationships” to progress in the game. Despite the relentless targeting, Karanveer continues to hold his ground, drawing comparisons to Bigg Boss legends like Sidharth Shukla, Gautam Gulati, and Gauahar Khan.
Fans can’t help but notice the parallels between Karanveer’s journey and that of Sidharth Shukla, the winner of Bigg Boss 13. Like Sidharth, Karanveer has been sidelined by the majority of the house, a situation that often turns out to be advantageous in the long run. Sidharth’s iconic stance, encapsulated by his unforgettable line, “Mai yahan rishta banane nahi aaya hoon”, echoes the defiance Karanveer now displays.
Similarly, Gautam Gulati’s solitary journey in Bigg Boss 8 and Gauahar Khan’s perseverance in Bigg Boss 7, where they both faced isolation, ultimately led them to victory. Karanveer appears to be following in their footsteps, gaining sympathy and support from viewers who admire his determination.
Having proven his mettle in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, where he defied expectations and emerged victorious, Karanveer’s journey in Bigg Boss 18 seems poised for a similar trajectory. While he may currently stand alone, his resilience and strength could very well carry him to the winner’s podium, solidifying his place as one of Bigg Boss’s most memorable contestants.
