Bigg Boss 18 Grand Finale: Rajat Dalal declared second runner-up, Vivian Dsena and Karanveer Mehra vie for the trophy
Bigg Boss 18 Grand Finale: Rajat Dalal was declared the second runner-up on Salman Khan-hosted reality show.

Social media influencer Rajat Dalal emerged as the second runner-up on Salman Khan-hosted reality show Bigg Boss Season 18. While Avinash Mishra was evicted in fourth place, Chum Darang finished in fifth place. Eisha Singh was the first finalist to get evicted from the show. Now, it is Vivian Dsena and Karanveer Mehra who will compete for the trophy.
Despite representing the country in sports and winning 14 medals, Rajat had quite a controversial image when he first entered Bigg Boss 18. On the premiere night itself, Rajat spoke about certain scandals around him. But with time, his sensible and sensitive side won many hearts inside and outside the house.

While many of his opinions came across as harsh, his unfiltered stance on Bigg Boss 18 is what many in the audience loved. However, Rajat’s aggression and impulsive nature also created problems in the game. On multiple occasions, the social media influencer threatened other housemates with severe consequences outside the show. Rajat was even seen getting very emotional over his past being brought up on the show repeatedly.

In his introduction video during the Bigg Boss 18 premiere, Rajat Dalal said, “Everyone on social media is trying to defame me. I am called a bad boy, a villain. People must have seen my controversies, but no one ever tried to know the reason behind them. I was a professional powerlifter. When I wore medals, no one paid attention. But when I was handcuffed, that’s when everyone searched my name.”
Before entering the show, Rajat had exclusively spoken to SCREEN and said, “Actors have their individual lives. They don’t pay my bills. It’s their life, so I don’t care much. I hope I don’t lose control and end up beating someone in the house. As a person, I know how to secure my rights, and I like to help people in need. I am a good person, but it doesn’t take me too much time to turn bad. I am a very straightforward person, but being mentally strong doesn’t mean you need to be evil.”
After Bigg Boss 18, the audience would be very eager to know what Rajat Dalal takes on next on the professional front.
