Elvish Yadav has picked up the Bigg Boss OTT 2 trophy. Abhishek Malhan, thus, is the first runner-up of the show. The two were neck-to-neck in competition till the end moment.

This did not come as a surprise to anybody since both Abhishek and Elvish enjoy a massive fan following. Manisha Rani, who is a part of their group, too, predicted this a day prior.

Manisha herself became the second runner-up. Soon after, Abhishek and Elvish lived their last moments in the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house. They then had their glorious moment as Salman Khan held their hands to announce a winner.

Salman even praised the trio and revealed that they were immensely loved outside the house. Soon, Abhishek, who was unwell on the day of the finale, got a surprise as Elvish and Manisha dedicated their performance to him.

Before announcing the winner, Salman joked with Abhishek and Elvish, leaving them speechless for a while. The host also appreciated both the contestants and stated that for him, they both deserve to win the trophy.

Salman kept the two contestants waiting for a longer period of time since he also did not know about the number of votes for each. Once the host came to know, he announced that Elvish is the winner of the show. This left Abhishek as the first runner-up of Bigg Boss OTT 2.

Elvish picked up the trophy and won Rs. 25 lakhs. Keeping his promise to his buddies Abhishek and Manisha Rani, Elvish asked them to share the trophy. Thus, Elvish, Manisha and Abhishek posed with the trophy. Salman, who stood there, joined them as the photos were clicked.
