Social media sensation Awez Darbar is all set to enter the Bigg Boss 19 house, and he's not letting the comparisons with his sister-in-law, Gauahar Khan, the winner of Bigg Boss 7, get to him. Awez, a popular choreographer, dancer, and influencer with millions of followers, is ready to showcase his unique personality on the reality show.
Ahead of the grand premiere of Bigg Boss 19 on August 24, 2025, Awez Darbar addressed the inevitable comparisons to Gauahar Khan. He confidently stated that they are different individuals with distinct approaches to the game. Awez's entry into Bigg Boss 19 is highly anticipated, with fans eager to see how he navigates the drama and challenges of the house. He is known for his energetic dance performances and engaging reels, bringing a youthful energy and fresh perspective to the show.
Awez, the son of music composer Ismail Darbar, rose to fame through TikTok dance videos and has since become a prominent figure on Instagram and YouTube. Before entering the house, Awez was playfully quizzed by host Salman Khan about whether his girlfriend, Nagma Mirajkar, would influence his game. Nagma Mirajkar, also a social media influencer, is entering the Bigg Boss 19 house alongside Awez. The couple's first look was revealed in a promo where they performed on the romantic track "Tere Pyaar Mein". Their entry promises a blend of friendship, love, and potential conflicts within the house. Awez plans to clarify everything about his relationship with Nagma on the show.
Awez participated as a wild card contestant in the 11th season of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. However, his journey was cut short due to a knee injury during rehearsals.
Awez revealed that he is prepared to be strict and competitive during tasks. He believes in giving his all to any competition and doesn't understand why someone would enter a competition without the intention of competing. He also emphasized that he would not engage in personal attacks, focusing instead on the task at hand and offering constructive criticism.
