Pranit More’s Bigg Boss 19 Journey: From Salman’s Reprimand to Finale Contender

What began as a rough start for RJ-turned-comedian Pranit More on Bigg Boss 19 has now transformed into one of the strongest finale arcs of the season. From being pulled up sharply by host Salman Khan during the first Weekend Ka Vaar for his resurfaced roast videos, to emerging as a strategic player backed by entertainers and even Maharashtra politicians—Pranit’s journey has been about resilience, humour, and self-reinvention.

Salman’s reprimand could have derailed his game in Week 1. Instead, the confrontation ignited the turning point of Pranit’s season. Once dismissed as a weak contestant, sidelined in early tasks, and mocked by housemates, he slowly carved out his identity—using his comedic instinct as his armour.

Soon, he found his tribe. His bonds with Gaurav Khanna, Abhishek Bajaj, Ashnoor Kaur, Mridul Tiwari, and later Malti Chahar shaped the social fabric of his game. His in-house segment The Pranit More Show became a fan favourite—blending roast comedy, satire, and self-deprecation to win hearts beyond the house.

Standing Up to Bullies & Showing His Vulnerable Side

Pranit’s defining moment came during a fierce confrontation with Amaal Mallik, where he stood his ground without theatrics. Viewers saw a calm but unshakeable contender—and labelled him a “sher.”

His personal revelations—about childhood struggles, insecurities, and the mocking he endured for his complexion and English fluency—added layers to his on-screen persona.

By late October, his captaincy win further elevated his game. His leadership changed the kitchen dynamics and reshuffled alliances, showing that he could strategise beyond humour.

A Health Scare, a Surprise Return & Stronger Gameplay

After a sudden medical exit, his return became one of the most trending promo reveals of the season. Hidden in true prankster style in the storeroom, he re-entered the game with renewed energy.

His tough call to evict Abhishek Bajaj over Ashnoor showed his willingness to make bold, unpopular decisions. Even his emotional fallout with Malti revealed his human side, adding depth to his narrative.

Today, Pranit stands in the Top 5 finalists, joining Gaurav Khanna, Farrhana Bhatt, Tanya Mittal, and Amaal Mallik—not as an underdog, but as a crowd favourite.

Whether he lifts the trophy or not, Pranit More turned Bigg Boss 19 into his stage, proving that humour, resilience, and authenticity can outshine even the harshest beginnings.
