His journey inside the house has been a remarkable one! His witty one-liners and bold demeanour helped him rule hearts in a very short period of time.



The Bigg Boss OTT 2, which started almost eight weeks ago, completed its successful run on August 14. The season was loved by the audience so much that the show was extended by the makers for two more weeks. The grand finale saw a neck-to-neck competition between Abhishek Malhan and Elvish Malhan. 


Elvish, who had entered the show mid-way, had to struggle to make friends inside the house. While he extended his hand of friendship to Abhishek Malhan, he was aggressive towards Avinash Sachdev, Falaq Naaz and Jiya Shankar and constantly targeted them. Viewers, however, loved to see him flirting with Bebika Dhurve. 


For the unversed, Elvish Yadav is said to be extremely close to his mother. While his father is a Hindi professor, his mother is a homemaker. The Youtuber also has a sister named Komal Yadav. Not many know that Elvish's real name is Siddharth Yadav. He, however, adopted the name Elvish, which was given to him by his elder brother, who is no more. Thus, in his memory, he kept the name and calls himself Elvish Yadav.
