Former Bigg Boss 19 contestant Farrhana Bhatt is now involved in a fresh controversy. In January 2026, an X user named Yash recounted his experience of being part of the actress’s PR team. He asserts that he is a ‘public relations associate and a social media manager with the Farrhana PR team.’
The PR team managing Farrhana Bhatt's social media has been accused of failing to pay pending salaries to the creators involved in the content. A user named Yash earlier held a Space on X (formerly Twitter) to explain his perspective and subsequently posted an extensive narrative about it on his profile.
‘Yash’ asserts that a PR agency contacted him to manage Farrhana Bhatt’s official Twitter and Instagram profiles. He formally transferred access to the team on 17 December. All tweets from Farrhana's account on X and the majority of edits on Instagram during that time were made by him.
He claims that the payment deadline has long elapsed, and even after follow-ups, the outstanding amounts have not settled. He asserted that several others experienced similar treatment, with even numerous follow-ups failing to secure payment from the PR team.

Using the username ‘yashtrendsetter,’ he asserted that they worked diligently to ensure all outputs were achieved and high-quality content was provided for the Kashmiri star.
He stated, “I exceeded my boundaries, compromised my health, and handled my fan club account alongside Farrhana’s Instagram and Twitter accounts at the same time.” He remarked, “This is not animosity. I remain a supporter. Each time I encountered Farrhana, she greeted me with kindness and consideration. My concern lies solely with the PR team and the unfair treatment of several creators."
Farrhana Bhatt was the first runner-up in Bigg Boss 19, which concluded in December 2025.
Gaurav Khanna was declared the winner of the competition. Earlier, contestant Tanya Mittal was accused by a stylist of failing to settle her payment.
Farrhana Bhatt or her team has not yet addressed the allegations.
