Inside the high-voltage reality show Bigg Boss 19, several contestants are battling it out for fame and survival. While some prefer a low-key strategy, television star Gaurav Khanna has quietly emerged as one of the most talked-about, and wealthiest, faces in the house.
Known to lakhs as Anuj Kapadia from the hit TV serial Anupamaa, Khanna’s journey from Kanpur to the glittering world of television has been nothing short of remarkable. The actor, who once worked as a marketing manager before venturing into showbiz, now commands some of the highest paychecks in the television industry.
According to entertainment industry sources, Gaurav Khanna’s net worth is estimated to be between Rs 8 crore and Rs 15 crore. His earnings come from multiple sources – television serials, reality shows, endorsements, and social media collaborations. The actor reportedly owns a plush apartment in one of Mumbai’s upscale neighbourhoods and a collection of luxury cars, including an Audi and a Royal Enfield motorcycle.
Inside Bigg Boss 19, Khanna is said to be among the highest-paid contestants this season, with reports suggesting he takes home approximately Rs 17.5 lakh per week, roughly Rs 2.5 lakh per episode. Prior to his stint in the Bigg Boss house, he also participated in Celebrity MasterChef, for which he was reportedly paid around Rs 2.5 lakh per episode.
Khanna’s lavish lifestyle, often visible through his public appearances and social media, mirrors his success. Married to actress Akanksha Chamola, he is frequently seen donning designer outfits and has a strong fan base across television and digital platforms.
Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan, features an ensemble cast that includes Ashnoor Kaur, Zeeshan Qadri, Tanya Mittal, Nehal Chudasama, Abhishek Bajaj, Baseer Ali, Pranit More, Farhana Bhat, Neelam Giri, Mridul Tiwari, Kunika Sadanand, and music composer Amaal Malik.
