Social media content creator Awez Darbar’s journey on Bigg Boss 19 has come to an end. The popular creator was eliminated from the Salman Khan-hosted reality show in Sunday’s eviction, following a poor run in recent weeks.
Darbar, who boasts a massive following of over 20.4 million followers on Instagram and 12.6 million subscribers on YouTube, was nominated alongside Ashnoor Kaur, Pranit More, Gaurav Khanna, Mridul Tiwari, and Neelam Giri. After the audience vote, he landed in the bottom three, along with Ashnoor Kaur and Pranit More, ultimately leading to his exit.
A Reality Check and Missed Opportunities
Awez Darbar‘s eviction comes just days after his sister-in-law, actress and former Bigg Boss winner Gauahar Khan, visited the house and gave him a much-needed reality check on his performance. Gauahar, who is married to Awez’s brother Zaid Darbar, had stern words for him: “Awez, what’s happening with you? If you don’t fight your battle, who will? You are completely silent on the issues where you should be speaking up. If you get lost, then you have no chance in this show.”
This feedback echoed observations from the show’s host, Salman Khan, who had also urged Awez to step up his game. Over the last few weeks, Awez’s presence in the house had become notably subdued, and he often failed to inject himself into key conflicts.
About Awez Darbar
Awez had entered the Bigg Boss house with his longtime girlfriend, fellow content creator Nagma Mirajkar. The couple was a key highlight early in the season, with Awez even proposing marriage to Nagma during their time on the show. However, Nagma was evicted just two weeks prior, which may have further dampened Awez’s spirit and performance. The couple had initially planned to marry in December but postponed their wedding to participate in Bigg Boss 19. Awez is the son of renowned music composer Ismail Darbar.
While inside the house, Awez formed close bonds with Gaurav Khanna, Ashnoor Kaur, Abhishek Bajaj, Mridul Tiwari, and Pranit More.
However, his time wasn’t without its controversies and clashes. He had significant arguments with contestants Baseer Ali and Amaal Mallik. The conflicts escalated to a point where the two accused him of character assassination, alleging that Awez had messaged other women while he was dating Nagma.
The Season So Far
Bigg Boss 19 streams at 9 pm on JioHotstar before its TV telecast on Colors TV at 10:30 pm. The season has seen a mix of personalities, including contestants like Kunickaa Sadanand, Gaurav Khanna, Ashnoor Kaur, Tanya Mittal, and Amaal Mallik.
Awez’s girlfriend, Nagma Mirajkar, and Polish actor Natalia Janoszek were the first contestants to exit the season in a double eviction. The show is continuing with its remaining housemates as the battle for the Bigg Boss 19 trophy intensifies.
With the eviction of a major social media star like Awez Darbar, do you think the dynamics of the house will change significantly in the coming weeks?
