Shehnaaz Gill says audience voting for Shehbaz Badesha and Mridul Tiwari before Bigg Boss 19 is ‘unfair’: ‘I really want both of them to go in, only then they will know how difficult the journey is’
Last week, the makers of Bigg Boss 19 revealed two names who might enter the show, Shehnaaz Gill’s brother Shehbaz Badesha and YouTube content creator Mridul Tiwari, and announced that their participation would depend on audience voting.

Salman Khan–hosted Bigg Boss 19 is just a week away from its premiere. While a list of probable contestants has surfaced online, the final lineup will only be revealed when the show premieres next Sunday. Last week, however, the makers revealed two names who might enter the show, Shehnaaz Gill’s brother Shehbaz Badesha and YouTube content creator Mridul Tiwari, and announced that their participation would depend on audience voting. While the ‘fans ka faisla’ is still awaited, actor Shehnaaz, who rose to fame with Bigg Boss 13, has reacted to the decision and called the opportunity “unfair”.
A few weeks back, SCREEN had exclusively reported that the audience will play a crucial role in driving the show’s narrative this year, and the contestants will run the house this time. Now, as Shehbaz and Mridul’s fate lies in the hands of the audience, Shehnaaz shared a video on her Instagram stories and said, “When I was on Bigg Boss 13, my brother Shehbaz had been manifesting for the show since then. He had stayed there for a week, and people had loved him a lot; now, finally, he is getting a chance to go on Bigg Boss 19. But the opportunity is such that both the guys have been nominated and left homeless, which is quite unfair.”
