The recent elimination of renowned YouTuber Anurag Dobhal, widely recognized as UK07 Rider, from the Bigg Boss 17 house left fans in shock. His unexpected departure added an unforeseen twist to the show, compelling audiences to remain glued to their TV screens.
Anurag had spent an impressive 11 weeks within the Bigg Boss house, garnering recognition as one of the strongest contestants. However, fate took an unexpected turn, leading to his eviction.
His exit from the reality show incurred a significant cost for Bigg Boss, as the compensation for his participation was substantial. According to reports from Siasat, the esteemed moto vlogger, UK07 Rider, commanded an impressive salary of Rs. 7.5 lakhs per week during his tenure in the Bigg Boss house. Consequently, his overall remuneration for the 11 weeks ranges between a remarkable Rs. 77 to 82 lakhs.
Post his departure, Anurag Dobhal didn’t shy away from questioning the show’s makers, alleging humiliation during his eviction. In a conversation with IndiaToday.in, he shed light on his ordeal, highlighting instances of isolation and his treatment within the house.
“Bullied is a small word for what I experienced,” he disclosed. “There was a point during my stay when I felt so low and lost. The contestants were against me, Bigg Boss was against me, even Salman sir seemed to be angry with me for questioning how things were happening in the show. However, I have always believed in standing for the truth. I did have to go through a lot but trust me, I have emerged stronger after all this. I may not have won the trophy, but I did win hearts.”
Expressing gratitude for the unwavering support within the creator community, Anurag highlighted the unity among content creators. “If someone falls among us, everyone is ready to pick them up,” he acknowledged. “The community has always come together to back each other, and I am proud of that fact. Not just Elvish, but each creator has given support to me, and I am very thankful about that.”
