Bigg Boss 19 has barely warmed up, but contestant Tanya Mittal has already sparked a storm with her bold proclamations and unapologetic swagger. From day one, she made it known that she refuses to be addressed casually. “I am called Boss,” Tanya announced confidently, adding that even her family members prefer calling her Mam or Boss instead of her actual name. “It feels weird when people use my name,” she insisted, almost demanding a formality reserved for royalty.
But what really set tongues wagging was Tanya’s flamboyant statement: “Chambal me Phoolan Devi ke baad kisi ko gap toh bharna tha na isiliye mai aayi.” The comparison to the infamous dacoit-turned-politician Phoolan Devi was nothing short of explosive, leaving housemates and viewers stunned at the audacity. Tanya’s over-the-top arrival has positioned her as one of the most talked-about contestants of the season already.
However, not everyone was impressed by her entitled attitude. Actress Kunickaa, never one to mince words, offered a reality check. She firmly stated that respect cannot be forced through titles: “When you start comparing and saying, ‘If you call a man Boss, call me Boss too,’ you have already lost the battle right there. Respect can be given by using a person’s name also, you don’t have to be called Boss for that.”
The clash of ideologies, Tanya demanding regal treatment versus Kunickaa’s grounded perspective, has already set up a brewing conflict in the house. While Tanya flaunts her diva persona, recounting tales of her “bodyguards saving 100 people at Maha Kumbh” and holding on to old-school culture, Kunickaa questions whether such posturing is necessary at all.
Fans, meanwhile, are split. Some love Tanya’s fiery confidence, calling her the Poo from K3G of Bigg Boss, while others think her insistence on being addressed as Boss screams entitlement.
One thing’s for sure, whether she’s respected or ridiculed, Tanya Mittal has ensured that all eyes are on her. With bold statements, larger-than-life energy, and now a brewing verbal duel with Kunickaa, this season promises high-voltage drama right from the start.
