Actress Divya Agarwal has emerged the winner of Bigg Boss OTT guaranteei­ng the former journalism student and choreograp­her a place in the Salman Khan-headed Bigg Boss season 15.

Agarwal emerged a crowd favourite, despite her petty fights with Bollywood star Shamita Shetty, who had the star power backing of her sister, Shilpa Shetty.

Actress and Bigg Boss 7 winner Gauahar Khan announced Agarwal’s name in the digital version of the popular reality show that was hosted by Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar. She took home a cheque of Rs250,000, along with the trophy and hopefully a place, along with four other finalists, on the Bigg Boss show that Khan will host on Colors TV.

WHO IS DIVYA AGARWAL?

If Agarwal is a familiar face, then you probably recognise her from the web series, Ragini MMS: Returns 2. Agarwal has also previously won the reality show Ace of Space 1, along with emerging as a runner-up in MTV Splitsvill­a 10.

Hours after she won, Agarwal was spotted celebratin­g her victory with her close friends and boyfriend Varun Sood. He shared a video from the party on Instagram. The first runner-up of the night was Nishant Bhatt, a television choreograp­her who has been associated with dance reality shows such as Super Dancer 3, Jhalak Dikhlaja and Nach Baliye.

Shamita Shetty emerged as second runner-up. Shamita also sparked a romance of sorts with Raqesh Bapat, who was eliminated on the finale night.
