BB 15 finalist Karan Kundrra: From tagged as an early 'mastermind' to being in relationship with Tejasswi

Actor Karan Kundrra has pretty much transformed into reality star Karan Kundrra over the years where he started off as a daily soap actor but has been in more and more reality shows in the recent past. But if there was one show everyone expected him to be in but he was never to be seen - it was Bigg Boss. That finally happened this year a Kundrra appeared in Bigg Boss 15 and unsurprisingly has done enough to reach the finals. Here's having a look at his journey in the show-

Entering as a big name and making an instant impact

With Bigg Boss every year, it is always a mixed bag where new faces take centre stage but there is always a mix of celebrities that are already very popular on the circuit, who also come in. Karan Kundrra was one such big name who finally came in Bigg Boss after a long wait. And it was no surprise that Kundrra made an instant impact. A veteran with the reality show format, Kundrra was brilliant with the way he would plan tactics and strategies early on. There was a a brief period he was even labelled the new 'mastermind'

Falling in love

Bigg Boss is always known to have new relationships, new bonds and one such love story started spicing up rather surprisingly in the form of Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash. Not many would have expected this pairing but it happened and in fact, unlike so many other couples who like to take it slow and more so, don't really admit while inside the house, Kundrra and Prakash admitted to their love story and have been together ever since. In fact, their love story has been the constant talking point, and in fact, the most interesting portion of this entire season that was otherwise immensely dull.

Being smacked for multiple reasons, rising from it and his bromance with Umar Riaz

Soon, like it happens with multiple contestants, Kundrra's game and his decisions were questioned time and again. That one week where he was smacked by host Salman Khan for him not prioritizing his own girlfriend and even talking in an ill-manner with her to other instances - he was indeed in a bad state. But the man chose to rise from it has been only concentrating on his game ever since. 

While his relationship with Prakash and his decisions were questioned but if there was one bond that was never questioned - it was his bromance with Umar Riaz. His friendship with Riaz was probably one of the most loyal bonds one has witnessed close coming to that of Rahul Vaidya and Aly Goni's.

Touted to be the winner and a journey to remember

Kundrra's journey being good or bad for many, no matter how topsy or turvy - continues to be one for many to remember. The man, who has been a contestant on reality shows in early days went on to act as a mentor and judge in others became a contestant again for a show of the magnitude of Bigg Boss 15. While many have touted him to be the winner already, whether or not he is one - we will have to wait and see.
