Controversy has erupted around Bigg Boss 19 contestant Tanya Mittal, as fans and online communities question her actual age. Promotional material from Bigg Boss 19 lists Tanya’s birth year as 2000, making her 25 years old. However, viewers claim this does not match statements she made inside the Bigg Boss house.
The debate started when a Reddit user shared the official promotional graphic and pointed out an apparent contradiction. Tanya had reportedly mentioned to fellow housemates Neelam Giri and Malti Chahar that she is 30 years old. This led to speculation that either the promotional material or Tanya herself was providing incorrect information.
Reddit users quickly began their own “investigations,” with some suggesting that Tanya could be older than 30, while others poked fun at the situation with sarcastic comments. One user wrote, “She’s not lying. It’s 2000 BC,” while another claimed to know someone from Tanya’s school, saying she is in her late 30s. Some viewers questioned the accuracy of Bigg Boss itself, pointing out that the production team has previously listed contestants’ ages incorrectly. 
Tanya Mittal, an influencer and entrepreneur, rose to fame through her lifestyle content on Instagram and YouTube. Known for her glamorous yet traditional persona, Tanya has drawn attention in the house for her confident lifestyle claims, which some contestants have found difficult to verify.
Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan, continues to attract viewers with a mix of drama, personalities, and intrigue. This season includes a variety of contestants such as Neelam Giri, Abhishek Bajaj, Amaal Mallik, Zeishan Quadri, Kunicka Sadanand, Baseer Ali, Gaurav Khanna, Ashnoor Kaur, Mridul Sharma, Nehal Chudasma, and Farahana Bhatt. The latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode featured a wild card entry, Malti Chahar, sister of cricketer Deepak Chahar, adding more excitement to the season.
