Avinash Mishra, who finished fourth in the recently concluded season of Bigg Boss 18, has addressed the swirling rumors regarding a potential romantic relationship with fellow contestant Eisha Singh. In an interview, he firmly stated that their connection is purely platonic, emphasizing that there was never a “love angle” on the show. “People have a lot of questions and hopes about us becoming a couple, but trust me, we are really good friends,” Avinash remarked, adding that if anything changes in the future, he would be sure to share it with the public.
The speculation about their relationship gained traction during the season, as viewers noted their close interactions and camaraderie. However, Avinash’s clarification aims to quell any misconceptions and highlight the nature of their friendship. He expressed understanding of fans’ curiosity but reiterated that their bond does not extend beyond friendship.
Reflecting on his journey in Bigg Boss 18, Avinash shared his feelings about the finale, where Karan Veer Mehra emerged as the winner. He congratulated Karan, acknowledging his deserving victory while expressing his own disappointment at not taking home the trophy. “I wanted to win, but it didn’t happen. Karan played really well and truly deserved it,” he said.
The finale also saw Eisha Singh and Chum Darang evicted before Avinash secured fourth place.
The show has been marked by controversies, particularly surrounding Eisha and Avinash. Some viewers have criticized their gameplay and questioned the authenticity of their friendship, suggesting it might be a strategic move for screen time. This skepticism intensified after host Salman Khan teased Eisha about her rumored relationship with another contestant, further fueling doubts about her dynamics with Avinash.
Despite these challenges, both contestants have garnered significant fan support throughout the season. Avinash’s gameplay was characterized by his vocal stance on various issues within the house, earning him respect among viewers even as he faced backlash for certain actions.
As they navigate life post-Bigg Boss, both Avinash and Eisha appear to be focused on maintaining their friendship amidst external pressures and public scrutiny.
