How Bigg Boss Ruined My Favourite TV Actress: A Tejasswi Prakash Rant

A long long time ago, there used to be a TV show called Swaragini that had little kiddie Shreya in a chokehold. Not because it had an amazing story, but because it had an amazing character, a beautiful anti-hero who was hurt by everyone she once loved, turning her into the greatest villain the world of television has had in a long time.

Honestly, no idea why would Lakshya Maheshwari choose anything over this cutie 🥰

The villain was called Ragini, and was played by Tejasswi Prakash. I have been obsessed with her ever since, because of that one role. I follow her on social media and I genuinely think we both have the same personality as well. She went to Khatron Ke Khiladi and she was absolutely perfect in there. The other contestants, men and women alike, were so jealous of her it wasn’t even funny. But that’s how you know she was awesome. Until she had to quit because of her injury.

And in yellow. She does these things for me I swear.

Every year since then, there were rumours about her entering Bigg Boss and every year when these rumours made their rounds, I’d get really stressed about it.

Because what’s the one thing that has been consistent year after year about Bigg Boss? That’s right. You losing respect.

I don’t know what it is about that show because I’ve never watched it, but I don’t think anyone who had any respect in society has gone to the show and come out with the same level of respect. It’s just a very filthy show.

And then 2021, the worst year of my life, came. Everything that could’ve gone wrong in my life went wrong. I was crying, trying to kill myself and whatnot.

Like clockwork, the rumours began. Tejasswi Prakash confirmed for Bigg Boss. This time I was not going to fall for it. Surely, she’d know better.

Well, guess what? That was the year even Tejasswi decided to break my heart. She did Bigg Boss 15.

She doesn’t even look like an actress here. Just a beautiful everyday girl you see on the bus once and never again.

A couple of my friends watched the show. We are so similar personality-wise, they would send her videos from the show to me to tell me she reminded them of me.

And then, somehow, there were rumours about her dating this… asshole.

Now, don’t get me wrong — I’m usually right in my assumptions, just not when my own feelings are involved. Which is frustrating because those are the only times it matters.

When Tejasswi was doing Swaragini, people thought she was dating Namish Taneja, her co-star. Personally, I approve of that pairing — I still do, even though Nami has a really, really cute girlfriend. But the point is, this entire thing was just rumours.

The world should’ve ended when Swaragini did.

Then she did Pehredaar Piya Ki and Rishta Likhenge Hum Naya — where she was paired with Rohit Suchanti. There were rumours still, but I knew they weren’t a thing. Why? Well, because I am mini Tejasswi. I’d know.

Not gonna lie, this show was a fever dream for me. I didn’t watch it, but the costumes were 🤩🤤

Then came Khatron Ke Khiladi. Shivin Narang. I don’t even know why I hated that guy. He reminded me of one of my classmates, so I didn’t want that rumour to be true — only to regret it like five seconds later because what came next was a nightmare.

I think I hate good guys, idk why I hated this man with all my heart. Until the next one came and I wanted this one to be real so bad.

So it’s 2021, I’m heartbroken already and then Teja decides, hmm, nice time to enter Bigg Boss and kill my entire image. And if all that wasn’t enough, there were rumours.

Now I don’t know if these qualify as rumours because, you know, I’m pretty sure they were live 24*7 and showmance is probably why there were talks about her dating this asshole, Karan Kundra, but looking back — I think I just didn’t want to think that hard and get my heart broken again.

I thought hmm… She has had a rumour like that every single time she had a male coworker. I’ve lived like that, and I know nothing’s ever happening.

Guess what? That year, everything that could go wrong, went wrong. Boom. She was dating Karan Kundra. Eww. Eww. Eww.

And her life has gone downhill since. She has done a couple of good shows, of course, but everything has that asshole in it, except maybe Naagin. Naagin was good, I guess.

She gained a little weight during the course of this show and this bitch looks good no matter what happens to get 😭

Now, she’s doing a show called Desi Bling.

I have just recently completed Dynasty and so I was aimlessly scrolling on Netflix — you know, since I don’t watch a lot of shows — when I saw the poster with her.

Every clip I’ve seen of this show was against my will, but every clip made me think she was the best one there. So I clicked it.

Worst decision of 2026 — and mind you, this is the year I got addicted to soda, so trust me, I’ve taken A LOT of bad decisions this year.

This is not even from the show, i just think she looks so cute here 🥺

First episode (I’m only 20 minutes in) and I already hate it. Karan is a snob — I’ve held that opinion of him simply based on how he looks. Seriously. Never watched any show that has him. I don’t even know any show that has him besides the ones that also have/had Teja in it. But today, all my assumptions are confirmed. I hate that guy.

You see what I meant when I said my assumptions are always right?

Anyway, so Tejasswi is clearly out of place in this show and it seems like she’s still very much like me, but she has to tone it down/kill her personality. She overdoes the drama and the way she talks has become cringe and it’s sad that that’s how most people know her now. I wish more people saw her interviews from her days at Swaragini, because that’s the real Teja.

This man, Karan, has ruined her. She always seems to be trying to catch up to him. To be better for him. To change herself to better suit him.

Why would God let a perfect woman like her do a show like Bigg Boss/Desi Bling.

That’s fucked up. And I know she probably doesn’t know it. She probably won’t agree if someone tells her. I know the way her face changes when someone asks why she isn’t engaged. Because she feels he doesn’t want to marry her. And I know it bothers her so much.

I know at a later point in the show he does propose to her, and she says yes. It has me in shambles because that man doesn’t deserve her. She’s so much more than what she is around him.

Anyway, long long time ago, because I was crazily in love with her, i used to copy some of her insta posts and post my photos on Sunday. I’d call it Shrejasswi Sundays and I think we’ll talk about that on this Sunday. Until then, pray.
