Karan Veer Mehra has claimed the coveted Bigg Boss Season 18 title, marking a triumphant moment in his career. Ecstatic after his victory, the actor shared his emotions and thoughts in an exclusive interview. Reflecting on his time in the house, Karan Veer described his journey as a thrilling adventure filled with highs and lows.
Coming off his recent win in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, Karan Veer seemed almost accustomed to standing in the winner’s spotlight. With a touch of humor, he remarked that he might now be addicted to victory and joked about asking the channel, “what is the third reality show.” His confidence was evident, as he admitted he had been anticipating this win for quite some time.
Recounting the moment Salman Khan was about to announce the winner, Karan Veer revealed the suspense was almost unbearable. He confessed to being so anxious that he jokingly considered splitting the title between contestants. Even as the announcement drew closer, his heart raced as he tried to absorb the magnitude of the moment.
When asked about returning to normal life, Karan Veer admitted he was still processing everything. For now, he remains on set, uncertain about the madness awaiting him once he steps back into the outside world. However, he seemed prepared for the chaos, knowing it was a part of the journey.
Inside the Bigg Boss house, the one thing Karan Veer missed most was his family. He expressed immense relief and happiness at finally reuniting with them. Despite the whirlwind of interviews and celebrations, he eagerly looked forward to unwinding and celebrating this significant achievement with Salman Khan. He asserted, “I’m waiting for the interviews to get over so that I can party with Salman sir. It’s a big moment for me.”
One of the season’s notable controversies involved Eisha Singh, who was called out for an age shaming comment directed at Karan Veer during a heated argument. Addressing the incident, he showed no bitterness, attributing it to a moment of anger. He believed her words were not meant seriously and emphasized his decision to let it go. He firmly stated, “I hold no grudge against anyone.”
Another highlight of the season was Karan Veer’s bond with Chum Darang. Their connection struck a chord with viewers, making #ChumVeer trend widely on social media throughout the season. When asked about the future of their relationship, Karan Veer shared that, as Salman Khan wisely said, the decision ultimately rests with Chum. He seemed open to possibilities but chose to respect her choice in the matter.
The actor also spoke about his dynamic with Vivian Dsena, which saw its share of ups and downs during their time in the house. While acknowledging they may never be the closest of friends, Karan Veer described their relationship as cordial. Living together for 100 days had fostered mutual respect, and he considered them friends, albeit not best buddies.
Bigg Boss Season 18, which began on October 6, 2024, wrapped up on January 19, 2025. Karan Veer emerged victorious, with Vivian Dsena securing the runner-up position. Reflecting on his journey, Karan Veer expressed gratitude for the experience and the overwhelming support from fans, leaving the house as a winner in every sense.
