Mridul Tiwari
Mridul Tiwari, a Bigg Boss 19 contestant and prominent YouTuber, received a star-studded welcome in Noida following his expulsion from the reality show. Several videos on social media show a massive crowd gathering to greet his return. Fans caused a frenzy on the streets.
In the now-viral videos, Mridul can be seen in his car, waving to hundreds of fans who had arrived to see him. His vehicle was mobbed, with enthusiasts surrounding it from all sides. They're also seen cheering and singing his name. The content creator was clearly overwhelmed by the affection and enthusiasm.
Mridul walked out momentarily to welcome the audience, wearing numerous garlands around his neck. He shook hands with a few admirers and expressed gratitude for their support.
Despite the chaos, the 25-year-old grinned and talked with those around him. Many fans were spotted shouting slogans and filming the occasion on their phones as they praised Mridul's journey on the show.
Mridul has a large fan base even before joining Bigg Boss 19. His followers complimented him for playing honestly and with dignity. However, his mid-week eviction startled many viewers, and his supporters deemed it 'unfair'. They also felt Mridul deserved to be in the top five.
After the episode aired, social media users began questioning the producers, claiming that the audience was paid. Now, a girl from the live audience has shared a video claiming that they were not paid but were undoubtedly misled. She can be heard saying, "We were not paid a single penny for being there. We were told that this was an activity to vote for the captain of the house, not an eviction vote. Had we known that our votes would decide who leaves the house."
Recently, Mridul Tiwari reunited with the Bigg Boss 19 gang and shared pictures on the social media handle for the fans to react. He even surprised Neelam Giri as he visited her residence.
With Mridul's elimination, the battle within the Bigg Boss 19 house is fiercer than ever. The surviving participants, Gaurav Khanna, Malti Chahar, Shehbaz Badesha, Amaal Mallik, Tanya Mittal, Ashnoor Kaur, Kunickaa Sadanand, Farrhana Bhatt, and Pranit More, are now nearing the end of the show.
