The contest narrowed down to a close call as it pitted two best friends in the form of Shiv and Stan against each other in the finale with Stan being crowned the winner on Sunday night.

Talking to the media after the end of the show, Shiv said, "I and Priyanka were good players. MC Stan accha insaan hai aur usne trophy k liye kabhi khela hi nahi (MC Stan is a good human being, he never played it for the trophy). And that's what made him the winner."

Shiv, who is also the winner of 'Bigg Boss Marathi 2', further mentioned, "I have always said this whenever I was asked that Stan was a perfect fit for the show. Aaj jo wo jeeta hai, wo deserve karta hai, Haq hai usko bhai! (He fully deserves to be the winner)."

While talking to the media after being announced as the winner of 'Bigg Boss 16', MC Stan said, "Dil se bura laga (felt really bad that he lost)".

He further mentioned, "Par show shayad personality ke upar tha usne apna side rakha maine apna. Bahut kam maatra se haara, abhi usme main bhi kya kar sakta hoon (But, I guess the show was all about personality. He lost by a very small margin. I too can't do much in this situation as well)."

Stan is an Indian rapper, lyricist, music producer and composer. He became popular after the release of his song 'Khuja Mat' in 2019. He was introduced to rap music by his brother. His one liners such as 'Shemdi', 'appreciate you', 'Haq se', 'feel you bro' and 'Hindi matra bhasha' and 'Raavas' have caught attention of all across the country.
