Tanya Mittal: Age, Business, Bigg Boss 19 Result and Family

Tanya Mittal is a Gwalior-based entrepreneur and spiritual content creator who finished fourth on Bigg Boss 19, India TV and News18 reported on December 7, 2025. Gaurav Khanna won the season and took home the Rs 50 lakh prize.

Outlets print two birth years for her, 1995 and 2000, so she is 31 or 26 as of October 19, 2026. She has not named her father publicly. No outlet reports a husband or boyfriend, and no verified net worth exists. Her latest reported work is the ZEE5 show Maa Hai Na, plus a September 2026 note about the Bigg Boss media round that she wrote the day before Bigg Boss 20 began.

Who is Tanya Mittal?

Tanya Mittal is an entrepreneur and social media creator from Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, according to the Times of India’s etimes desk on September 11, 2025. It said she studied at Vidya Public School, earned an architecture degree at Chandigarh University and won the Miss Asia Tourism Universe title in 2018. The Indian Express repeated those details on September 9, 2025.

She founded a label called Handmade with Love by Tanya, which sells handbags and sarees, etimes reported. Both outlets said, citing unnamed media reports, that she started it with Rs 500.

She became widely known in February 2025, when her Instagram video about a crowd crush at the Maha Kumbh went viral, Free Press Journal wrote on September 5, 2025. Her own account of the aftermath, as the Times of India reported on October 10, 2025, is that she lost her security and contracts after people called the video fake. The outlets did not verify that.

India TV and Hindustan Times call her a spiritual influencer. She had close to 2 million Instagram followers before the show and around 4.4 million by its end, exchange4media reported on December 22, 2025.

How old is Tanya Mittal?

Tanya Mittal is 31 if she was born on September 27, 1995, and 26 if she was born on September 27, 2000, as of October 19, 2026. National outlets have printed both years.

The Times of India’s etimes desk on September 11, 2025, and the Indian Express on September 9, 2025, gave her birth date as September 27, 2000, in Gwalior. India TV reported on October 7, 2025, that the official Bigg Boss 19 promo graphic listed 2000 as her birth year, which made her 25.

The same report found an older video on her own YouTube channel in which she said she was born on September 27, 1995, at 2:55 pm in Gwalior. India TV also wrote that she celebrated a 26th birthday on the show, and on October 1, 2025, it had called her 29. The reports read for this profile carry no reply from her on the gap.

IMDb and Famous Birthdays list 1995, and Knowlepedia lists 2000. None of them is a national outlet. Until she states the year on the record, this profile treats both as reported claims.

What is Tanya Mittal’s business?

Tanya Mittal’s named business is the label Handmade with Love by Tanya. In a factory tour video on the News Pinch YouTube channel, she said she also has a textile factory, a pharma factory and a gift factory, Hindustan Times reported on January 2, 2026.

Wealth claims she made on the show drew heavy doubt. Host Salman Khan called her out several times for contradicting herself, exchange4media wrote on December 22, 2025. In the Hindustan Times report she denied saying she has 150 bodyguards, and said she had told a housemate that she has more than 150 staff members.

On the live feed she also said she wants to open a bank that lends only to women, the Times of India reported on September 13, 2025.

Brands moved quickly after the finale. exchange4media reported on December 22, 2025, that she fronted a digital campaign for Yes Madam and a giveaway for mCaffeine, and the Times of India said on December 24 that she was in Mumbai shooting her sixth ad film.

Did Tanya Mittal win Bigg Boss 19?

No. News18’s finale live blog shows Gaurav Khanna winning on December 7, 2025, with Farrhana Bhatt first runner-up, then Pranit More, Tanya Mittal and Amaal Mallik. India TV said Mallik was evicted first on finale night, and Mittal followed when the top four were asked to open suitcases.

She entered on the August 24, 2025 premiere night and joked with host Salman Khan, according to the same News18 premiere blog. Her stay lasted 105 days. Her fan base, backed by her family, ran a voting appeal on 7,500 Delhi Metro billboard screens before the finale, exchange4media reported.

Several clashes shaped her run. Wildcard entrant Malti Chahar questioned her lifestyle claims in October 2025, and the Times of India reported on October 10 that Mittal broke down afterward. On November 24, mid-day described a promo in which Mittal pressed a nominated stamp on Chahar’s lips and Chahar slapped her. Mint, citing ANI, reported on November 30 that Ashnoor Kaur was evicted for hitting Mittal with a wooden plank in the ticket-to-finale task.

In late October 2025, the Times of India reported that Mittal and Farrhana Bhatt teased Abhishek Bajaj about his ex-wife after a Weekend Ka Vaar episode. Bajaj told them he was currently single and later complained about the teasing, and Mittal said she meant it lightly.

On September 8, 2025, during an argument over her upbringing, she spoke about a very painful period at age 19, India TV reported the next day. Readers in India who are struggling with similar feelings can call Tele-MANAS, the government’s free mental health helpline, on 14416.

Who is Tanya Mittal’s father?

Tanya Mittal has not named her father publicly. India TV reported on October 1, 2025, that she said in the house he works in real estate and sells 500 to 1,000 flats a year.

She gave no company name, turnover or net worth. India TV wrote that several names circulated online and that neither she nor her family confirmed any of them, so this profile does not repeat them.

Her parents spoke together on September 5, 2025, in a statement on social media, Free Press Journal reported. They said watching their daughter win hearts made them proud, asked viewers to wait until her journey ended before judging her, and asked that the family be kept out of the criticism.

After the finale she returned to Gwalior and hugged her family in a video, the Times of India reported on December 15, 2025. Mid-day wrote that day that she told them she had not named them on the show to protect them from trolling. Her mother later said in a house-tour video that she wanted to ask the makers why one contestant was being targeted, the Times of India reported on December 24.

Is Tanya Mittal married or dating?

No outlet read for this profile reports a husband, fiance or boyfriend for Tanya Mittal as of October 19, 2026.

Wedding talk began in February 2026 after she posted videos of herself in bridal outfits. India TV wrote on February 22 that she had not commented. Nothing was confirmed. On March 1, the Times of India reported that she told photographers she would marry if they found her a groom, which settled nothing either.

In a Hindustan Times interview on July 2, 2026, she said she wants a partner but has not found anyone strong enough yet, and that her family wants someone well settled. On the show she said she is still friends with an ex and is very excited to get married, the Times of India reported on September 18, 2025. No outlet names a current partner.

What is Tanya Mittal’s net worth?

No verified net worth figure exists for Tanya Mittal as of October 19, 2026. The only estimate in a national outlet is a hedged line that the Indian Express attributed to Times Now, and no filing, valuation or statement from her backs it.

The Indian Express printed that estimate on September 9, 2025, and introduced it with the words “if reports are to be believed.” This profile does not repeat the figure.

The business details on record are her own statements about three factories (Hindustan Times, January 2, 2026), brand campaigns and a follower count (exchange4media, December 22, 2025). None of them gives revenue or profit.

Tanya Mittal after Bigg Boss 19

Ektaa Kapoor offered her a project from the stage during the show, the Times of India reported in December 2025. Moneycontrol wrote on February 28, 2026, that Mittal met Kapoor at her home, where Kapoor said she had a written offer.

In May 2026, Moneycontrol quoted her post about starting filming for a debut show with Balaji Telefilms and Hoonur. It then reported on May 7 that a source told News18 the project was a ZEE5 reality show from Lil Frodo Productions, not an acting debut.

Hindustan Times reported on May 10 that ZEE5 had announced Maa Hai Na, a 10-episode cooking show hosted by Shilpa Shetty Kundra, with six celebrity pairs. Mittal appears with her mother, alongside Tina Ahuja and her mother Sunita Ahuja. Lil Frodo Productions is the producer of Maa Hai Na, Hindustan Times added.

Late May brought an outfit dispute. Influencer Prince Chaudhary, who owns the label Nayaab By Prince, alleged in a video that an outfit lent to her team was not returned after four months, Free Press Journal reported. As of its June 1, 2026 report she had made no direct statement, and the outlet said the outfit was returned after Chaudhary raised a legal step, according to his account. Podcast host Faridoon Shahryar defended her, and she re-shared his video.

Hindustan Times reported on June 16, 2026, that new Maa Hai Na episodes streamed every Friday on ZEE5. In that report she said she has no conversation with Amaal Mallik, whose friendship with her turned sour during the show, and urged fans to stop comparing them. Producer Preeti Simoes said on June 19, in the Times of India, that Mittal can be misunderstood sometimes.

The show ended with Kushal Tanwar, known as Gullu, winning the first season with his mother, News18 reported on July 1, 2026. It listed Mittal and her mother among the contestants. The reports read for this profile do not state where she placed.

She told Hindustan Times on July 2, 2026, that she had been wary of another reality show because people wanted TRPs from her by humiliating her, and that her mother pushed her to join Maa Hai Na.

On September 5, 2026, a day before Bigg Boss 20 premiered, she posted a clip and note about the Bigg Boss 19 media round. She wrote that the questions felt meant to bring her down and that part of the round was never telecast, Moneycontrol and Free Press Journal reported. The most recent national report found for this profile dates from that day.
