Elvish Yadav was up against Abhishek Malhan to win the grand trophy of Bigg Boss OTT 2. The top 5 contestants of the show were Pooja Bhatt, Bebika Dhurve, Manisha Rani, Abhishek Malhan and Elvish Yadav. Pooja was the first of the top 5 contestants to be eliminated followed by Bebika. Manisha Rani became the 2nd runner-up and the third contestant to get eliminated.
Elvish Yadav managed to claim and live in the limelight after ending the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house as a wild card contestant. He had been leading the voting list as per the early trends with 48% votes in his favour. The social media influencer rose to fame for his hilarious YouTube roasting videos. He was known for his humour on the reality show as well. Also, fondly known as Systumm, the social media influencer has a clothing brand of the same name. Fellow contestant and actress Aashika Bhatia had accused Elvish of body-shaming and roasting her without ever meeting her.
Let’s hope that now he has won a reality show, he’ll learn to seek people’s permission before roasting them.
