Popular TV actor Sana Maqbul, known for her role in the show ''Vish'', has emerged as the winner of the third season of ''Bigg Boss'' OTT, surpassing her friend Naezy. The announcement was made during the grand finale on Friday night, with Bollywood star Anil Kapoor presenting the trophy and prize money of over 25 Lakh to Maqbul.

The reality show's season began on June 21, and featured rapper Naezy as the first runner-up, while actor Ranvir Shorey secured the third spot. TV actor Sai Ketan Rao, from the serial “Mehndi Hai Rachne Wali”, finished in fourth place based on audience votes, and Youtuber Kritika, widely known as the second wife of another contestant Armaan Malik, ended up in fifth place.

During her acceptance speech, Maqbul expressed her gratitude to Naezy, acknowledging his unwavering support throughout the competition. ''I would like to share this moment with him (Naezy). From day one, Naezy told me, 'You have the strength'. And I definitely have strength,'' Maqbul told Kapoor.

The grand finale also saw Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor promoting her upcoming film ''Stree 2'' alongside co-star Rajkummar Rao. Contestant Armaan Malik generated controversy during the season due to his entrance with two wives and his involvement in a slap incident with Youtuber Vishal Pandey. Additionally, actors Shorey and Maqbul were often in the news for their frequent arguments.

The season featured a diverse group of 17 participants including Chandrika Dixit, famous for her Vada Pav stall in Delhi, Youtuber Shivani Kumari, Lovekesh Kataria, Sana Sultaan, Payal Malik, professional boxer Neeraj Goyat, Tarot card reader Munisha Katwani, actor Paulomi Das, and journalist Deepak Chourasia.
