Bigg Boss 19 may have wrapped up on December 7, but the post-show drama is far from over — especially for finalist Tanya Mittal, who continues to dominate conversations long after stepping out of the house. This week, the former contestant found herself at the centre of an unexpected controversy after Malti Chahar alleged that Tanya kissed composer Amaal Mallik’s photo during a task inside the BB house.
Tanya has now responded, and she isn’t holding back.
Tanya Clears the Air: “If I Loved Someone, I Would Say It Openly”
In a recent interaction reported by News18, Tanya Mittal addressed the claim head-on. But before responding, she opened up about what she’s been feeling emotionally since leaving the show — loneliness, exhaustion, and a longing for stability.
“It’s always been like this for me,” she shared. “I want a family, kids… I’m tired of being alone. I don’t even tell my parents when someone hurts me because I get scared.”
Her response to the allegation was direct and confident:
“Agar maine kiss kiya hota aur agar pyaar hota, toh main kabhi duniya se nahi darti. Amaal se pyaar hota toh openly bol deti. On-screen kiss karke aa jaati.”
If I had kissed him, if I were in love, I wouldn’t hide it. If I loved Amaal, I’d say it openly. I would’ve kissed him on screen and said I’m in love.
With that, Tanya dismissed the rumour as completely baseless, adding that since she wasn’t in love, the idea of kissing someone’s photograph made no sense.
Why the Allegation Went Viral
Inside the Bigg Boss house, even the smallest moment tends to get magnified. Malti Chahar’s claim — made casually during a conversation — quickly snowballed on social media, with fans debating whether Tanya’s behaviour hinted at a connection with Amaal Mallik.
Tanya’s calm but firm clarification now puts the speculation to rest, although the chatter hasn’t completely died down.

Season 19 ended with Gaurav Khanna lifting the trophy along with a ₹50 lakh cash prize, winning viewers over with his composed and consistent gameplay. Tanya, who finished as one of the finalists, earned a strong fanbase for her honesty and vulnerability inside the house.
The top five finalists were:
- Gaurav Khanna (Winner)
- Farrhana Bhatt (Runner-up)
- Tanya Mittal
- Amaal Mallik
- Pranit More
Tanya’s name trending even after the finale shows the kind of following she built — and why every statement she makes continues to stir conversations online.
Final Words
With her latest clarification, Tanya Mittal has shut down one of the season’s strangest post-show controversies. Her message was simple: no secrets, no hidden love, no kissing photos — and if she ever did have feelings for someone, she’d be the first to admit it.
